Error while unpacking archive

Post by Beatbox » Wed Feb 26, 2025 4:20 pm

Hello everyone,

after I downloaded the current archives and tried to unpack them, I got an error message:

-tar: This does not look like a tar archive
-tar: Skipping to next header
-tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

Are the archives stored on the server corrupted?

Greetings,
Thomas
