I'm having a problem installing Oracle 8i in my Red Hat 7.2 box. I
downloaded the file linux81701.tar and I try untaring with: tar xvf
linux81701.tar
The extraction goes fine for a little while and then it stops. The
following is the last line shown on the screen and the error messages:
:
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.rdbms.seeddb/8.1.7.0.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/se
ed/system01.dbf.jar
?r-xr-xr-x 47202/502 6277054 2001-01-16 18:14:13 unknown file type ` '
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable. Exiting now
I try re-downloading the file from oracle.com just to make sure it hadn't
gotten corrupted, but the result was still the same. Can anyone see what
the problem might be?
Your help is appreciated
