Dear Sir,

you have to be in the directory that you downloaded xampp to.
Besides you should also use "tar xfvpz" not only "tar xfvz" to untar.

Dear Sir,

your "ls" shows that the filename is called xampp-macosx-0.6.1.tar and not xampp-macosx-0.6.1.tar.gz.

please try and use the following command to untar XAMPP:

# tar xfvp xampp-macosx-0.6.1.tar -C /

Install fix

Ok, here is what worked for me. Do not download using Safari! I know, I know, I am a huge Mac fan too, but trust me, use Firefox. I don't know why, but it works.
