Re: archive corrupted !

Ah ok, i think this is a misunderstanding...

The your archive file home-20-06-2007-05-55.tar.gz  is corrupt, not a
single file in it.
"unexpected end of file" means that gzip cannot handle the zip file
correctly, not a file in it called "file". Gzip is a stream compression,
it doesn't know anything about the format of the file it (de)compresses.
Maybe you can extract parts of your file using gzip -d -c  | tar  x.

Dear all,

I have a corrupted file, when I make 'tar xvzf
home-20-06-2007-05-55.tar.gz', I have :

gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

I have tested the software "gzip Recovery Toolkit"[1] but I always
have this error message.

For information :

sfantar@sithare:/tmp_$ file home-20-06-2007-05-55.tar.gz
home-20-06-2007-05-55.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, from Unix, last

Thanks a lot !

Yes, I know, but there would not be a solution to test ? I have tested
'tar xvzf --exclude=file home-20-06-2007-05-55.tar.gz '...

bye


It's similar.
