I am writing to a HP LTO4 tape drive. But after writing a big file (of the order 30GB) I am not able to write anything after that. I get
tar: directory checksum error
Anyone has any idea what could be wrong?
I am using the command
tar -rvfE /dev/rmt/0 <file.gz>
Need help!
Problem resolved by using -i flag.
So now I am using the command
tar -rvfEi /dev/rmt/0 <file>
:)

I am self-learning the convelutional neural network from the stanford cs231n course. I am trying to finish the assignment1. However, I just got totally confused about how to download the data. I followed the instructor and see
Download data: Once you have the starter code, you will need to
download the CIFAR-10 dataset. Run the following from the assignment1
directory:
cd cs231n/datasets
./get_datasets.sh
I don't understand what does it mean by "run" the following. Run what exactly? Previously, I use R so I understand what does "run R" means. But here it does not say run "what" or run the code in "where".
So I tried to run the code in command prompt, Anaconda Prompt, PowerShell or even Git Bash. The command prompt game error of "." is not recognized as an internal or external command. The PowerShell does not give error but does not give any result either. It just open a Text Document of code
# Get CIFAR10
wget http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~kriz/cifar-10-python.tar.gz
tar -xzvf cifar-10-python.tar.gz
rm cifar-10-python.tar.gz
The Git Bash gives me error of
get_datasets.sh: line 2: wget: command not found
tar (child): cifar-10-python.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
rm: cannot remove 'cifar-10-python.tar.gz': No such file or directory
How to download this data? Please help! Thanks.
Download wget
& copy wget.exe to your git
C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64
then restart the git bash or Navigate to your folder where get_datasets.sh file is present.
run the following command in git bash
sh get_datasets.sh
Navigate to your folder where get_datasets.sh file is present using cmd.
Use the command .\get_datasets.sh in command prompt.
Make sure you are not missing wget. If wget is missing, install wget on your local machine and then run the shell script.
After installing wget properly use the instruction mentioned at the start.
I've run into a problem while running a tar script. I am getting an invalid option, as shown in the screenshots, that is stopping the script running. I don't get why however as the command worked outwith the script. Can anyone help me?
The script:
The error:
Thanks to Paul R I have an answer. No idea how to mark his comment as the answer though so here it is:
Some older versions of tar don't like the - at the start of the
commands - try tar cvpfz .... – Paul R 5 mins ago
Are you copy and pasting the command, instead of hand-typing it in terminal?
In my case, I was getting:
tar: invalid option -- '�'
I was pasting into terminal, the command from a raw text file, which I had copied from a tutorial:
tar –xvzf bitcoin-0.20.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
I hand-typed the entire command:
tar -xvzf bitcoin-0.20.0-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
and it worked. I suspect it was something like an extra space character or a - or similar which was not working.
In my case, i tried chmod 777 'FILE_NAME' for unlock the file.
Then installing, it works well!
I have downloaded the image data from ImageNet ILSVRC2012 and save into a hard disk on this site : http://www.image-net.org/challenges/LSVRC/2012/nonpub-downloads . I am working on OSX.
When I do tar -xvf ILSVRC2012_img_train.tar, I have this error :
x n01729977.tar: Truncated tar archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix it ?
I tried to download this synset apart through the website directly but when I re-use tar -xvf ILSVRC2012_img_train.tar, I had the same issue.
Thank you
Thank you Prune. Indeed my problem was linked to the downloading. Don't know why it was not fully downloaded. The actual file is 140GB.
I am trying to install sqoop on my machine,i downloaded tar file from here
and trying to install by seeing here
So when i tried the below command i getting the error as below
[root#065 local]# (cd /usr/local/ && sudo tar \-zxvf _</home/local/user/Desktop/sqoop-1.4.2.bin__hadoop-0.20.tar.gz>_)
Error
gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
What wrong with the above command ?
Can anyone please let me know the easiest way of installing sqoop ?
Actually i had a 1GB xml file that need to be processed and saved in to MYSQL database, i used hadoop with python for doing this but it is taking hrs to process and save, so i decided to use sqoop and process the xml file and save the data in to database
Also please let me know the basic and easy tutorial to work with sqoop
Also please provide me a basic code that process the xml file and saves data in to database as i am newbie to sqoop.
Validate the tar by just executing this command
ls -l /home/local/user/Desktop/
and check the file size whether it is consistent with the 4.6M or close
after that just try running the following
tar -zxvf /home/local/user/Desktop/sqoop-1.4.2.bin__hadoop-0.20.tar.gz
Then copy to /usr/local/
UPDATE:
You have copied and pasted the exact command from cloudera documentation.
_<path_to_sqoop.tar.gz>_ you don't need _ < and > _ those are used for placeholder for the documentation.
Run this
(cd /usr/local/ && sudo tar \-zxvf /home/local/user/Desktop/sqoop-1.4.2.bin__hadoop-0.20.tar.gz)
Please also add $HADOOP_HOME in your ~/.bash_rc file.
vim ~/.bash_rc
Add this to your bash_rc file :
export HADOOP_HOME=/home/local/user/name/Hadoop/hadoop-1.0.4/
Save your file and then perform
source ~/.bash_rc .
Also, you need to copy sqoop-env-template.sh to sqoop-env.sh. As the name suggests, it is only a template :
cp /home/local/user/name/Desktop/sqoop-1.4.2.bin__hadoop-0.20/conf/sqoop-env-template.sh /home/local/user/name/Desktop/sqoop-1.4.2.bin__hadoop-0.20/conf/sqoop-env.sh
Edit sqoop-env.sh:
vim /home/local/user/name/Desktop/sqoop-1.4.2.bin__hadoop-0.20/conf/sqoop-env.sh
Add the following line to sqoop-env.sh:
export HADOOP_HOME=/home/local/user/name/Hadoop/hadoop-1.0.4/
Now test sqoop :
./bin/sqoop help
To make your life simpler , you can also add sqoop to your bashrc file
I would like to compress a directory.
tar -cvzf mydir.tar.gz mydir
but this retains symlinks so that it is not portable to a new system.
How can I convert symlinks?
I have tried
tar -cvzfh
since man tar says
-h, --dereference
don’t dump symlinks; dump the files they point to
but this results in an error
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
and creates a file called "zh"
My files are on a RHEL server.
Your tar.gz file name must follow immediately after the -f flag, merely reordering the flags may work.
tar -cvzhf mydir.tar.gz mydir
