Error in uncompression

After many repeated downloads, md5sum checking consistently returns-

Then, executing this command -
tar -xvzf pgdbf-0.1.tar.gz

returns these messages -

tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

I'm quite lost here... What could be the problem?

I'm guessing that your browser is downloading it as text. The server mime types look correct:

$ curl -v http://honeypot.net/files/pgdbf-0.1.tar.gz | md5sum

Content-Type: application/x-gzip

You might try (depending on your client) right-clicking the file and choosing "Save as ...". Sometimes that gets better results than letting the browser try to open it.

I was wrong. I just downloaded that file with Firefox 3 and discovered that Firefox is compressing the file again:

$ md5sum pgdbf-0.1.tar.gz
2f01a6b465477399a1c407600196f77a  pgdbf-0.1.tar.gz
$ tar xzvf pgdbf-0.1.tar.gz
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
$ gunzip pgdbf-0.1.tar.gz
$ md5sum pgdbf-0.1.tar
3d430fd7d0c2a9842c4d99cf3c9e9b0c  pgdbf-0.1.tar
$ tar xzvf pgdbf-0.1.tar
pgdbf.c
pgdbf.h

I don't know why it's doing that, but it's clearly incorrect behavior.

Thanks!

I just followed what you did. I extracted the sources, compiled and I now have the program. Thanks again.
