How to uncompress *.tar.gz archive with p7zip (or gunzip)?

How do I uncompress a.tar.gz archive with p7zip?
I tried the following (as root from directory /tmp):
p7zip -d "/media/Backup Full/logfiles2014.03.tar.gz"
without success. p7zip tells me: "unknown suffix"
Even (as root from /tmp directory)
gunzip -d "/media/Backup Full/logfiles2014.03.tar.gz"
does not work. I was told "No such file or directory"
But I am sure the path to DVD is correct. I can see it in File Browser
So how else can I uncompress a *.tar.gz (to /tmp folder)?
I guess the extracted output should automatically be put in the directory where p7zip/gunzip is started.
If an additional output directory parameter is necessary then the output should go to /tmp

The Solaris 11 tar command actually understands gz format:
tar xf /media/Backup Full/logfiles2014.03.tar.gz
Much simpler. See the man page for tar.

How do I lock an archive with a code?

How do I lock an archive with a code?

You can't. All you can do is create an encrypted disk image, mount it, and copy the archive to it.

How do I create an archive system for a blog created with a custom app?

I had to create a blog using a custom app, because I needed an image to show up in the list view (a feature I can't believe does not exist in the blog module). Anyways, I am wondering how can I create an archive system? Do I need to create categories for each month/year and then classify the post each time we create one. Then manually create links each month to pages that filters listing by that category? This is the system I tried, but I was wondering if there was a better way.
Also, I would like to have a sidebar that shows all the authors/contributors of the blogs and have a count under their photo that shows how many blogs they have contributed to, and have this update dynamically each time they create a new post. I was wondering if a data source tag is the way to do this but I don't have enough information on how the data source tag even works, to really know how to do this.
I have searched google for hours, and even signed up for BC gurus tutorials with no real luck. I thought BC gurus was going to have the answer but it wasn't quite detailed enough. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

You can use classifications but there is no auto feature to archive like that on web apps.
In terms of the blog, Like I have said to everyone that has posted about blog preview images:
http://www.prettypollution.com.au/business-catalyst-blog
Just one example of an image at the start of the blog post rendering out, not hard at all.

Any suggestions how can I delete or archive items with DocTitle as *.html ?

Any suggestions how can I delete or archive items with DocTitle as *.html ? These are the email templates checked in by Fusion Apps, and all I know are the DocTitles.
Archive servervice seems a better way to delete items at same time keep a backup. but not sure what's the correct way to setup/use the "aExportQuery" parameter. Seems it's been ignored from the ADD_ARCHIVE and EXPORT_ARCHIVE idccommands, codes listed below.
@Properties LocalData
IdcService=ADD_ARCHIVE
IDC_Name=CommonDomain_ucm11g_cs

You could use the Archiver app. You can use that app as-needed or set it up so that all items are setup to delete once they're checked in.

How to ship a plug-in archive with my own files and directories ?

Hi:
- Can I ship a module plug-in archive with my own properties file and my own directories ?
- If yes, how can I do this and where would my own properties file and my directories be located ?
Thanks
John

The files included with a plug-in all serve very specific purposes, as such there's not a lot of flexibility in what you can deliver with the plug-in. The only real spot where you do get some flexibility is with the scripts you deliver with the plug-in. Those have their own directory structure:
AGENT_SCRIPTS_DIR/emx/<target_type>/
You can put files into this directory, but you wouldn't be able to create more directory structure under that directory.

hello the history is the only place where firefox stores the visited pages. change your settings in firefox > options > privacy when you want to keep the visited sites in the future & make sure that no external programs (like security or "tune-up" software) is clearing the history either. when firefox is launched in private borwsing mode, it won't keep history information for this session.

How to Open a rar file with downloaded software

I was bothering this forum yesterday trying to find some way to get a file opened that I had downloaded. Today I discovered that my problem was that "rar" files need their own software to enable them to be opened....So I downloaded the software UnRarX...and it is now sitting on the bottom of my desktop...but I can not get the software into the Applications folder, and so I can not figure out how to use this little package of software to open my "rar" files...
What do I have to do to open my files with this new software???
Thanks..
Miguel

HI,
The UnRarX application should be accessible from your Dock after installing the software. The application icon looks like this:
"How to extract a rar archive?"
1. Launch UnRarX.
2. Drag rar archive into the UnRarX window.
3. Extraction begins automatically.

UnZipping an archive with folders inside

Hello, everyone.
A friend of mine asked me to create him an "auto-downloader" type of program, to download a ZIP archive, then extract the information to the user's computer (no, it is not harmful).
Anyways, I've been trying mutliple ways, and I've come pretty far with the one I'm currently using. The only problem is, I'm using user.home as the file location for the zip, and creating a folder in there seems to just not want to work. This is the only way I could think of doing it, but I'm sure there are easier ways.. here's what I'm using:

}Here's the ZIP archive I'm trying to download: http://www.2shared.com/file/Qu1cSWcl/cache.html
If what I've said before doesn't make sense (mind you me, it's 4 am and I'm about to crawl into bed), then I'll try to sum it up in a few short words below.
I'm trying to extract a ZIP archive with folders, every time I do, it stops halfway through and throws an error similar to this:
invalid cache index specified
..\animations\raw
java.io.FileNotFoundException: ..\animations\raw (The system cannot find the pat
h specified)
        at java.io.FileOutputStream.open(Native Method)
        at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:179)

        at Updater.get(Updater.java:64)
        at Client.main(Client.java:2548)
Press any key to continue . . .I'm just trying to be able to extract cache (ZIP ARCHIVE) which has folders inside. I've tried creating a directory for the folder, but it seems to not work, hence the "?" in the above error (i printed that if the directory failed to create a new directory, as seen in my above code). Once again, sorry if this isn't as understandable as it should be, I'm not myself without sleep :)
Also, do ignore the first print, 'invalid cache index specified', it's not related to the problem.

So your question is really about how to make a directory, then. Nothing at all to do with unzipping of archives.
If you can't create a directory, then perhaps there is some permissions problem. You don't have the authority to create directories in some directory. Or perhaps you're trying to use a name which isn't a valid directory name in your system. Or... there are many other possibilities. But anyway I recommend tossing all of that unzipping business out of your program and just trying to write something which creates a directory. Debug that first.

How do I encrypt an archive for a PC user?

I can't find a way to encrypt an archive for a PC user. There doesn't seem to be an option when making an archive from the Finder. I also tried making an encrypted disk image with Disk Utility but the PC can't open the DMG filetype apparently.
In the reverse, the same problem exists if I try to open a zip file encrypted on a PC - can't be done.
When I do a Google search the results for encrypted archive usually point to Stuffit Deluxe or encrypted disk images that you can use on your mac or another Mac.
Does anyone know how to make/use encrypted archives that are cross platform? I'd like to avoid buying a program (i.e. Stuffit Deluxe) just for this one utilitarian task. Thanks.

Thanks, Dave.
I tried the command you gave me. It worked! I could open the zipped archive on my neighbor's PC.
The only weird things, are that it seems to zip all the other folders, e.g. users\Marlinespike\desktop\target-file, in the filepath and not just the target file, and that it also drops the zipped archive in the home folder.
I tried adding some of the other commands, such as zip -e -r or zip -er or zip -e -d but it doesn't seem to work. However, this is a huge improvement over where I was earlier.
I clicked through those links - I forgot about Mac GNU Privacy and am going to check those out too.

Can't open iDVD 4 archive with iDVD 6.03

I am trying to open a project created in iDVD 4 with iDVD 6.03. I saved it as an archive and transferred it from my emac to my macbook pro. The file is 76 mb so I believe the photos and theme is saved in the archive. When I try to open the iDVD 4 archive with iDVD 6 it either crashes immediately or does nothing. By doing nothing I mean that the archive does not open and the menus are still available in iDVD 6. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Don't ask me how I figured this out because it was really just dumb luck. The problem seems to be that the font I used on the emac and iDVD 4 was not on the macbook pro with iDVD 6. Once I dragged the font across the network it opened up fine. Too bad iDVD 6 couldn't give me an error message telling me that there was a missing font like some other programs do...

How to recover a lost archive log file?

How to recover a lost archive log file? Do I need to open the database with RESETLOGS after recovery?-------No.156

I guess in the event of lost archive logs during db recovery, you have to open RESETLOGS and say goodbye to some of the data.
