Expanding A Tag.gz Or Zip File

[jayc]

Hi all,

 

I am attempting to install phpGroupware for a customer evaluation.

 

I uploaded the *.tag-gz file and did the expansion thing, but it did not extract all of the files or folders,

 

I deleted everything and uploaded a fresh copy (after confirming that I could see all of the files and folders after doing a local unpacking)

 

After the deletion I uploaded again and again attempted to do an extraction, and even fewer folders were unpacked.

 

I deleted that attempt and tried uploading the zip version, and attempted to extract the contents, and this time nothing was extracted.

 

Currently I am attempting a work around by unpacking as much as will from the tar-gz, and then manually uploading the missing stuff with WSFTP. It is still in progress, but slower than creeping jesus.

 

Unpacked this application is about 150 megs, my question is why the file extraction function on this account appears to be failing on TCH.

 

Any thoughts out there ?

Think you are probably right, my FTP workaround is having problems as well

Hi,

 

Hope the help desk was able to help you. Just out of curosity, does the tz have all the files when you unzip it on your hard disk?

Yeah, unzipping locally has all the files, in fact what I ended up doing as a work around was to uzip locally and then use WS_ftp to send all the files up to TCH, this created problems of its own and the process took about 8 hours.

 

I never opened a ticket on this, have since been able to use the extract function without any problem, I suspect that the problems is caused by the size of phpGroupware. With all of the applications it contains it is over 250 megs
