Untar files from different locations
Hi all,
My tar file exists in directory: /usr/users/rovolis/test1/archive.tar
Now from directory: /usr/users/rovolis/ i run the following command
tar xvzf /usr/users/rovolis/test1/archive.tar
The problem is that the extraction of files is not done
Any idea why?
Thank you
