Jeff, I installed JRun on Cobalt/Linux and I had a similar problem. It turns out the version of compress that comes with Cobalt Linux is not the one the Allaire install scripts and tar file expect. Go to Allaire's tech support web site and find tech articles 21039 and 21423 and the info may help solve your problem. Basically you need to install a different uncompress utility and check you have the right version of tar.
Hope this helps.

I have all of the current Cobalt patches installed as well. I have been contacting Macromedia/Allaire and searching both this forum as well as the forum over at Allaire. So far, Allaire has been no help. Here is my problem. I run the installation script on my RAQ using the root login. I go through the entire installation process. I enter the serial number and accept all of the defaults. It finally gets to the point where it's about to install and it says, "Ready to begin the installation. Press ENTER to continue." So, I press Enter. Next, it says, "Copying files...mv: cfadmin/CFIDE: No such file or directory". Then, it kicks me out of the installation script. Allaire/Macromedia hasn't been able to tell me squat. So, thinking that the system may be having trouble creating the "cfadmin/CFIDE" subdirectory in my "home" directory, I created the CFIDE directory for it. When I did that and re-ran the installation, it got past that error message and gave me this one "Copying files.......tar: jrun.tar: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now". I have not been able to get past this point. Does anyone have a fool proof way to install this app, because I am surely feeling like a fool right now. There was a user on the Allaire forum that I emailed that was supposed to have a PKG file to install this app. more easily. The installation script that Allaire has is a breeze, but I can't seem to get it past this point. Any help is greatly appreciated, Jeff Stone Stone Grove Design [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers
