Strange error in Installer
Posted: Sat Sep 10, 2011 12:08 pm
Hello All
I was doing pretty good I thought then ka-boom.
I've built another test DB, to test using the Xataface relationship construct. Database seems OK, created with MySQL WB, then forward-engineered, looks OK in phpMyAdmin.
I'm doing this on one of the two Linux workstations I have, one with multiple Xataface apps already working. In fact, its my 'working installer'.
When I make the connection, everything goes AOK. I get a connection, pick the database - then I pick 'tarball' for the method.
When the output downloads and I try to open it I get an error/squawk -
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
/bin/gtar: Child returned status 1
/bin/gtar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
I tried the 'clear_cache' thingy - nope -
I'm pretty sure I checked the permissions and ownership of files and folders in xataface correctly.
I haven't built a new app in about ten days, so I can't say when this went boom.
OK, I tried a different browser (Firefox instead of Chrome) and re-booted also. Also tried different Archive tool - corrupt.
Good news is - I have learned enough that I really don't have to have the app generator. But it is handy. Edited - (Yay, the app launched)
Still have the installer spitting bad tarballs though.
Any and all thoughts are welcome.
Thanks!
