Re: Install problems

Sounds like you downloaded to a windows machine and explorer or netscape changed the name... the file should end in tar.gz try changing the name to end with tar.gz instead of tar.tar then unzip it first -then- run the tar. Hope this helps. -- Webmaster AngelHaven.com Mike Lovins wrote: > > I have trying to install PHP on my Marist Linux system. I have gone to the PHP web site (php.net) and down loaded the source file ---- php-4_0_4pl1_tar.tar. I then FTPed the file to my Linux system and ran TAR. TAR informed me that the file was not in TAR format.
