Hi,

I'm really new at this but am coming around. We recently sold a site and are presently trying to transfer it. I sent them the back up file and they are having trouble unpacking it. its in the

filenamegoeshere-1.tar.gz format

Do any of you have any suggestions for unpacking it? I really appreciate any help I can get
 
On linux servers run the tar command thus:
Code:
$ tar -xzvf filenamegoeshere-1.tar.gz
On windows simply use winzip.

Jeff
 
Thanks. theyre getting an invalid uncompressed data file and I figured out that it was hitting a zipped file with in the zip but it still works. Thanks though the linux code will be helpful in future situations
