Hi Sudheshna,

I think your problem is that you should not be using gunzip, as it does not untar the resulting tar file. Use 'tar' instead, which will call gunzip, then untar the resulting tar file.

AS Till suggested, use the following command: tar -zxvf  ij132-x86.tar.gz
(I just tried this to be sure, and it works pefectly.)

or, simply use Ark or File-Roller from KDE or GNOME

To run ImageJ, you must then run the 'run' command found in the resulting ImageJ directory: ./run . I use a shell script to launch it from my home directory, which I call imagej.sh:

cd /home/mismith/ImageJ
./run

Let me know if you are still having problems.

Mike Smith

Hi



  thank you for the reply.

   there is a small problem though...

   it gives an error and quits (after untarring some of the files, I dont know if there are more files to be untarred.)



gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

 please help.



 thank you once again.



 regards,

 Sudheshna.
