I have definitely downloaded the fop-0.20.5-bin.tar.gz file, and not the source version. I would like to try out Ant soon, but I'm still wondering what my problem with the binary version is. I suspect that I've just missed something very basic in how I structure my directory. As it stands, I just have the above file unpacked with StuffIt---oddly and perhaps significantly, the suggested tar -xzf approach made it cranky:
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors because even with StuffIt turned off, a download still just gets me a straight fop-0.20.5-bin.tar on the Desktop, not fop-0.20.5-bin.tar.gz. Unless I'm missing something, though, I don't think the file truncation issue is what's going on, and so I just have said tar unarchived with StuffIt and plopped on the Desktop directory as a plain folder directory ("fop-0.20.5"). Perhaps, then, this is the problem? While Apache just says to unarchive the tar into a "directory/folder that is convenient on your system," is there perhaps some further step involved in placing specific files in specific places that I have missed?
