untar a .tar file in LXLE (installed)
by AlainRichard from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5Q87B)
Hi
I'm trying to untar a .tar file in LXLE Linux 18.04.3 64 bit
with the command (root): tar -zxvf gscite514.tar and the response is:
root@alain-B85M-HD3:/home/alain/Downloads# tar -zxvf gscite514.tar
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
root@alain-B85M-HD3:/home/alain/Downloads#
Instructions from here

What's wrong (for a newbie like me) ?
Thks
