[users@httpd] Error not in gzip format while decompressing !

[Sachin Narale <sa...@hotmail.com>]

Hello,

       I'm installing Apache on my Redhat Linux. I've downloaded  
httpd-2.0.52.tar.bz2 . GNU TAR version is installed on system.

When I tried to decompress by using ......

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tar xvzf httpd-2.0.52.tar.gz  OR  gzip -d httpd-2.0.52.tar.gz

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm receiving folowing error ....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also I tried for httpd-2.0.52.tar.bz2

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
bunzip2 httpd-2.0.52.tar.bz2
---------------------------------------------------------------
I received following error

bunzip2: httpd-2.0.52.tar.bz2 is not a bzip2 file.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Same errors I'm receving for

mysql-4.0.21.tar.gz & php-4.3.9.tar.gz

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can anybody give some pointers for resolving this issue !


thnx & regards,

Sachin
