Installation - Linux manual

2. Uncompress the Archives

To uncompress the archives, follow these steps:

  1. Become a superuser.

    First, switch to the "root "user with the su command. (Put "-")

    > su -

  2. Place the file you downloaded on the server's local disk, wherever it is convenient for you.

    In the example with /tmp, we assume you placed the downloaded file to /tmp.

    The name of the downloaded file should be the following: cbof40jal.tar.gz (Linux Version)

    Copy the downloaded file to "/tmp" (Linux Version)
    # cp cbof40jal.tar.gz /tmp

    Change directory to /tmp
    # cd /tmp

  3. Uncompress the downloaded file

    Uncompress the downloaded file with GNU tar or the gzip and tar commands.

    i) With GNU-version of tar command (For Linux)
    # tar zxvf cbof40jal.tar.gz

    ii) With gzip and tar command (For Linux and FreeBSD)
    # gzip -cd cbof40jal.tar.gz | tar xvf -

    Then, three files, README, cb4setup, and cb4INSTALL.txt, and the directory, cb4tmp will be created.

    With the "ls -l" command, check if you have correct files and directory.

    # ls -l
    total 1180
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root cybozu 4750 May 23 11:29 README
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root cybozu 5811 May 23 16:14 cb4INSTALL.txt
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root cybozu 28168 May 23 16:05 cb4setup
    drwxr-xr-x 9 root cybozu 4096 Oct 23 2000 cb4tmp
