Hi:

I'm trying to tar phpMyAdmin with the following command:

tar xvzf phpMyAdmin-2.2.6-php.tar.gz

and I get the following error:

gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: child returned status 1
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

I've wget into the /usr/local. I can't even delete this file from FTP, it gives me an error 550.

Please Help with your knowledge.

I thank you again for your help in advance.

Sounds like you got a bad download. If you're tring to use wget agains SourceForge to get the download, forget it. With their new mirror-redirectory it just does not seem to work.

I've been going to the actual download page with my PC and copying the link to download, then pasting it into a wget command via ssh.
