Mario, Either your file transfer has ended prematurely or you were using ftp and forgot to change the type to binary. If you are doing this transfer on a Cygwin system you should also make your mounts binary. I believe I once had a problem with this. Anyway, your tar ball got corrupted in transit. You need to get another one. Fernando Mário Videira wrote: > > Hi, Everybody! > > I'm trying to build insight tool, but i'm unable to extract the file > insght-5.0 that i have downloaded.
