 Description   

I can not issue the tar -zxvf mongo.tgz command successfully.

tar -zxvf mongo.tgz
tar: Unrecognized archive format: Inappropriate file type or format
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

I've tried changing to a few different formats and I have tried several unzipping methods - no luck. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Jim Console

Sorry, it appears that the link was incorrect on the site. It's been corrected in the source and will be corrected on the site later today when we republish the documentation.
