Posted: 19. November 2012 16:06
Hello!
I'm a relative Linux newbie.
I've just downloaded xampp-linux-1.8.1.tar.gz to my desktop and I attemped to install according to the instructions here:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html#377
Typed in the Terminal per the instructions:
tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.8.1.tar.gz -C /opt
and got this response
tar (child): xampp-linux-1.8.1.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
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
