Asset 6.6 RPi 4: not in gzip format

[Bubblefish]

Hi,

after downloading the premium asset file ver. 6.6 the tar process exits with the message "... not in gzip format ..". Decompressing on Windows was possible.

Thanks for support - Martin

Have you tried downloading the Asset tar.gz file to your Raspberry Pi again?
Can you please post the full command line used to extract the Asset archive as well as the full output?

Here's the input/output:
************************************************** ********
input:
wget http://secure.dbpoweramp.com/downloa...num=xxxxxxxxxx -O asset.tar.gz -> then connection established, file downloaded, then
tar -zxvf *.gz

output:
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

Thanks for the details.

It would appear that the download step is failing for some reason.

I assume that you're trying to download with valid order number in your download link.

What if you try downloading over https rather than http:

wget [b]https[/b]://secure.dbpoweramp.com/downloadorder.aspx?ordernum=123456789 -O asset.tar.gz

.. then resume original instructions?

If this doesn't help, please try transferring Asset package file from your computer (one that's verified to extract correctly) to your Raspberry Pi, then extracting it.

Thanks for help - but nothing changes.

https brings the same situation -> not in gzip format

Loading via Windows brings not the same file permissions after decompressing, but it's possible. The comparison with an old version 6.4 offers differences.

Is this file really in gzip format for Linux?

Try downloading the file on the PC, then transfer to the NAS and try to unzip

Ok, done: before unzipping I changed the owner/group and AssetUPnP started correctly

Thanks
