1.5.1 tar archives

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade from CMSMS 1.5.1 to CMSMS-MLE 1.5.1 but I have a problem with the tar files I've found on FORGE.
When I try to extract the files, I get that :
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Just to check, I tried with the 1.4.1-2 archive file and I don't have any problem with it.

Since nobody reported anything about that I guess the problem comes from the way I proceed but I don't see what can go wrong.

Is there a difference about the way the archive files have been made between 1.4.1-2 and 1.5.1 ?

Does anyone have an idea ?

Thanks in advance

Bruno

Ok, I was able to untar it on windows with 7-zip.
tar-ed it again, transfered it on target and untar-ed it without any problem.
I don't really know what is the problem with the original archive but at least I can go further now  :)
