[Paraview] Problem unzipping tar.gz files

[Adriano Gagliardi]

That is strange issue. Maybe a reinstall of firefox will resolve the issue?
At least you have it now!

Cheers,

Mine is somehow larger:

wyx7fik at iwyl001 ~/software/src >du -hs
ParaView-3.10.0-RC1-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz
410M    ParaView-3.10.0-RC1-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz

wyx7fik at iwyl001 ~/software/src >md5sum
ParaView-3.10.0-RC1-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz
184b2811363aa6ea58a0c4e0b40ddebe
ParaView-3.10.0-RC1-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz

wyx7fik at iwyl001 ~/software/src >tar xzf
ParaView-3.10.0-RC1-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz

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

I already downloaded several times and tried on three machines with two
different applications. Got no idea what the problem is.

Ah, just downloades again with IE instead of firefox. Seem to work now.
Still no idea why...

Florian
