Gunzip Invalid Compressed Data--crc Error
the top Error with a .gz file decompression in Mint, but works perfectly in Windows, so the file is not corrupt up vote 2 down vote favorite I've downloaded some .csv files from the OECD Stats website, since I need them to plot some graphs with gnuplot. When I open them with File Roller 3.4.1 (the default program to handle archive files), there's a file that seems empty (0 byte). When I try on the
Gzip Invalid Compressed Data--format Violated
terminal, I get: gunzip Financial\ Indicators\ –\ Stocks.gz gzip: Financial Indicators – Stocks.gz: invalid compressed data--length error gzip: Financial Indicators – Stocks.gz has more than one entry -- unchanged So the file seems corrupted, but I sent it to a friend who uses Windows. He extracted the file on his computer and sent me the output: it's a zip files which, in turn, contains two .csv files.

If it contains 2 files then it is not a gzip file, gunzip works with single files, it just compresses, sometimes we use it with tar to combine file. It may be zip or tarred zip .taz Use file command

Gunzip Error Codes
I tried to gunzip it and got the following errors: gunzip: web-XXXX.tar.gz: invalid compressed data--crc error gunzip: web-XXXX.tar.gz: invalid compressed data--length error So, I contacted the publisher and said, hey, I think this file http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/101254/error-with-a-gz-file-decompression-in-mint-but-works-perfectly-in-windows-so is bad. They checked and said it worked for them. I downloaded the same file to a SuSE v9.2 system using Firefox 1.0.6 and it gunzipped fine - same file size as earlier download, though SuSE has gzip v1.3.5 and FC3 only has http://forums.fedoraforum.org/archive/index.php/t-67688.html 1.3.3. From what I've been able to find, this error occurs most frequently when a binary file is downloaded in ascii mode. I can't find any settings in Firefox that sets the mode ... plus isn't binary mode the default for almost everything? Any ideas on this one? Thanks, dxturner DRE.ORGY.NET4th August 2005, 12:28 AMWhen you downloaded it, did you select to save to a file or to open with an application? dxturner4th August 2005, 04:11 AMsave to file ... I saved it to /tmp/web-XXXX.tar.gz I actually downloaded it twice. The website allows you to select download via FTP or HTTP. When the first file downloaded via FTP gave the gunzip errors, I downloaded it again using HTTP. Same results. vBulletin v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2016, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.

I have been observing this when downloading Eclipse IDE. I tried many Eclipse versions, Scala IDE, but all result in the same error. Is there something wrong with my Internet connection or my Hard Drive? How to diagnose and fix this problem? *Update * i tried invalid compressed data using another computer to download the same file on the same internet connection. the file download is successful. so it means something wrong in my harddisk only. i checked the Disk 'palimpsest' report and does show many "read errors" and many "Seek Errors" , many "hardware ECC recovered" . But the "Uncorrectable Sector Count" is 0. Does that mean my disk is a problem but it is a recoverable error? what can be done to recover from these errors? Update 2 i tried attaching my phone as a USB device and downloaded the file in it. the file was downloaded using wget -c command. The same error occured, i.e. extracting the .tar.gz file failed as there was a CRC error that means Harddisk is OK, and internet connection is OK (see Update 1) , but there is something wrong in the OS? many times i am not even able to apply all updates as the updates also fail for the same reason "Hash Sum Mismatch" plz help!! downloads share|improve this question edited Mar 18 '14 at 17:16 asked Mar 4 '14 at 20:35 weima 7418 Sometimes it happens due to internet connection.
