I have been trying to uncompress the following file:
sudo wget http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7u21-b11/jdk-7u21-linux-x64.tar.gz
with the following:
sudo tar zxvf jdk-7u21-linux-x64.tar.gz -C /usr/lib/jvm/
I am getting this error
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
I am using an Amazon Linux instances. By default jre is installed instead of the jdk, which I need to be able to run jboss. I would install the jdk using yum
, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be possible. Issue I am having is that it doesn't make sense why its not working if I am doing everything right from what I have been able to discern. I have downloaded two different versions just to be sure its not just corrupted files. Any help figuring this out would be greatly appreciated!
