How to install .tar.tgz file in AIX 6.1?

Hello,

I have openssl.0.9.8.1103.tar.tgz file which I have downloaded from
Code:
https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/iwm/web/reg/download.do?source=aixbp&S_PKG=openssl site

The website says that the file name is openssl.0.9.8.1103.tar.z but when downloaded I get openssl.0.9.8.1103.tar.tgz as the whole file with .tar.tgz as the extention.

Here uncompress does not work since this does not have a .z extention.

When I type :
Code:
file openssl.0.9.8.1103.tar.tgz

.I get the output as
Code:
openssl.0.9.8.1103.tar.tgz: compressed data block compressed 16 bit

How can I install the same.

Do you have the 'gzip' command?
Check out this info: TGZ File Extension - Open .TGZ files
