Recursive scanning of .tar.bz2 archives / Older release notes

This is actually a two part question, but the two parts are somewhat related. 1) Recursive scanning of .tar.bz2 archives If I create a new content filter to match on executables (attachment-filetype == "Executable") this detects directly attached exe files. It also detects exe files in .zip-archives, and it detects renamed exe files in .zip archives. All is well. What it does not detect are exe files in .tar.bz2 archives. This surprised me as this is not an especially obscure format, and the Ironport lists tar and bz (along with zip) in the Compressed mime category. Maybe this is a bug, and it's fixed in a newer release (this is on 6.5.2-101). Which brings me to the next question 2) Older release notes Where can I find release notes for the releases between 6.5.2-101 and the current release (7.0.1), in order to find if this was fixed along the way?

Not sure about the tar.bz2 archives, but the older release notes can be found on the support portal under Appliance Documentation > Email. There is a small link at the top right corner of the page "earlier releases". Yes, its very well hidden

How can I get firefox-9.0b6.tar.bz2 to install in Linux Mint 10 Julia?

When I try to open/load the downloaded new version: firefox-9.0b6.tar.bz2 with the default Archive Manager in Linux Mint 10 Julia I get this error message:
"bzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly; perhaps it is corrupted? *Possible* reason follows. bzip2: Inappropriate ioctl for device Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout) It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted. You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files. You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover data from undamaged sections of corrupted files. tar: Unexpected EOF in archive tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now"
Perhaps it is also of note that I am running Linux from a thumbdrive through the USB port on my Asus EeePC.
=== What do I do so I can get firefox to work? This began because I can't get Adobe flash and gmail to work properly and realize (at least for gmail) I need to upgrade.

Can you open any other Firefox tar.bz2 archives?

Understanding bug ID and release notes documentation

Hi !
we planned to upgrade IOS switch on some switches, most switches are running 4 to 10 or more IOS release in late in compare to the most recent one. We would like to upgrade because we had some issue with port flapping and spanning-tree portfast issue with switches. I find in one release document some element looklike solve some of our problems.
So before upgrading we would like to avoid more issue or different issue which may have bigger impact we had actually, so I read latest release notes of our plate-form to choose the correct release for our need....
I find some bug ID in release notes 12.2(55)SE mark as Resolved and do not find it in 12.2(54)SE or 12.2(53)SE as "open" and some bug open in 12.2(53)SE as open and nothing about those in the next 2 releases (Open or Resolved).
So how can I choose correct release for our need, while also minimised required reading release notes documentation !
Thanks !

If the bug was discovered after the 12.2(54)SE release notes were published, only the 12.2(55)SE release note will show the fix. The older release notes will not be updated with bugs discovered after the relesae note is "printed." Only the most current release note has the most current data.
Bugs mentioned in 12.2(53)SE release note SHOULD have a follow up in future release notes, unless engineers determined that the bug was not a bug at all, but an expected behaviour, a customer misconfiguration, or a transient, unreproducable event.
The interactive Bug Tooklit is the best way to tell where a bug applies. If you plug in the bug ids about which you have questions, you can see a real time picture of the current state of every bug id mentioned in the release notes.

How do I start Firefox 4 from KMenu when I downloaded and installed Firefox4.0.tar.bz2 (only launches from terminal), and 'apt-get' installs Firefox 3.6.15 even though I tried to "--purge" it from Linux?

I downloaded and installed Firefox 4 RC using tar.bz2 so that I could still use Firefox 3.6.15 as per normal, having to start Firefox 4 using the terminal which worked great (except for many videos on different websites). When Firefox 4 was released, I suppose I was in a hurry to get it to work normal from my menu, but it kept saying that 3.6.15 was the latest version (I'll be quite embarrassed if it wasn't available for Linux users - I do love Firefox!). I did something silly, like purge Firefox from my operating system (Kubuntu 10.10) and when I reinstalled it was still 3.6.15 (it wasn't really downloading, but unpacking). Am I in too much of a hurry or is there a fix-it? I can use Firefox 4, but only through the terminal and I suspect it is slower than it should be. I would like only one version now.

First, that cannot be an iBook G4 as that machine cannot run Snow Leopard let alone Mountain Lion. To run Snow Leopard it has to be an Intel processor, not a G4. What does it show as the Model Identifier in About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Model Identifier?
Second, if you have erased the hard drive there should not be remnants of any prior content. Even though Disk Warrior is saying nothing is wrong with the hard drive, it sounds as though there are problems. You may want to consider simply replacing the hard drive so there are no questions about faults. A good source is OWC, http://www.macsales.com where they also have on-line videos showing how to do the replacement.
Third, you could also try again to restart using the Snow Leopard DVD/CD and use Disk Utility on that install disk to erase again, and do it a couple times, then try to install. If it continues to refuse, then it sounds as though there is a fault with the hard drive.

Extracting tar.bz2 files.

How can i extract tar.bz2 files?. zip, jar, tar can be extracted within java. But how tar.bz2?.

Some tars have built-in knowledge of the bz2 (bunzip) compression format.
Tar ("tape archive") is to package several files in one archive or to extract them. The archive files can be called "*.tar".

How do I install firefox-5.0.tar.bz2 using KPackageKit?

Your instructions say "wait for your systems package updater...these instructions are only for if you installed firefox manually".
How do I get my Fedora 12 linux package program to install the tar.bz2 that was downloaded?
e.g., do I need to get a .rpm file or something?

Older releases of flash for amd64 linux.

Are the older releases of flash 10 for 64 bit linux still available. The current version has problems (I can't click on any widgets). So I want to downgrade to a version that works. But I can't find any older versions. I did find the archive (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html) but it is only of the 32 bit versions.

Actually you can use the latest Flash Player version 15 on Mac OS 10.6.8. Mac OS 10.5.8 and older are no longer compatible and need an older Flash Player version (depending on PPC or Intel platform).

I cannot install Firefox-6.0.2.tar.bz2.

Extraction tar.gz archives without leaving a .tar archive behind

Hello!
When I double-click on a .tar-gz-archive in the Finder, It extracts two things: a tar-archive and the actual content of the file. In 99% of the cases I don't want an additional tar file eating my disk space - is there any way to tell "BomArchiveHelper" (the Program that extracts archives) not to store tar archives?

Good to know... is there a Linux native format for backups that does incorporate fault tolerance much like the rar format allows for parity or recovery records?

Downloading .tar.bz2 files ...

... why in **** does Safari add another .tar to .tar.bz2 files, and how do I stop it? Many thanks for the person who knows this one.
-peter

Hi,
It's probably due to the mime encoding specified on the server side - Safari tends to believe what it's told.
Assuming you're getting the file from wireshark.org, that download is reported as 'Content-Type: application/x-tar'
(Compare that to the gzipped tar file there which is correctly defined as 'application/x-gzip')

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.

Contacting OTN admins to get an older release of Oracle Data Integrator

Hello everyone,
We developed a product using Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) 10.1.3.3.1 but the current release is 10.1.3.4 and the older release cannot be found anywhere (OTN /SAC). So, i am trying to reach out to OTN admins to get access of ODI 10.1.3.3.1 so that we could ship that to customers. Does someone know how can i reach them or better yet if an OTN admin reads this thread, could you please respond?
Thanks,
Srini.

You would need to contact the product manager about that.

Tar.xz archives not correctly recognized anymore...

Seems that with a few updates (seen a few specific to xz) that a host of .tar.xz archives I've made are not being properly recognized... file-roller used to see them all just fine a few months ago, but attempting to open them today, I got a few with the standard "archive not recognized" error in file-roller and xarchiver. Xarchiver will let me extract some of those archives, but the extracted archives end up being .tar archives. When I originally made this with file-roller, it could pack and unpack tar.xz archives in a single effort. Am I experiencing an uncommon issue or is this just not being talked about because those who have had the issue wrote it off since it was hit or miss?

exact error:
xz: (stdin): File format not recognized
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
will see if I can find a file I'm able to share, as these files are backups of CD rips from programs I legally own, but can't legally share...
