    How to install .tar.bz2 files

    Hi Folks,

    I just entered this linux forums and I have questions with you guys. Please be aware that I'm still noob in linux. Here we go.

    I have a VMWare with an image of fc6. I want to install these files in this machine and Ijust dont know how to do it. I got these files as I searched over the net about openwsman. Because I planned to install openwsman in this machine.

    Here are the files that I want to install:

    openwsman-1.5.1.tar.bz2
    sblim-sfcc-2.0.2.tar.bz2
    subversion-1.4.5.tar.bz2

    Does anyone know about openwsman and how to install it in VMWare/Linux?
    Your help greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Noldar Aral

    Anyone knows OPENWSMAN

    Hi Guys,

    I don't know if this is the right place to post this. Is there anyone here that knows/familiar with OPENWSMAN? Can you guide me how to install it? Just installation only. Please.

    thanks,

    Noldar Aral

    Welcome to the forums!

    Here's an installation guide that should help you to install software under Linux using several different installation methods:

    I tried to execute this command:

    user@localhost~]$ tar -jxvf file.tar.bz2, and got this message

    tar: sblim-sfcc-2.0.2.tar.bz2: Cannot open: Permission denied
    tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
    tar: Child returned status 2
    tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

    What do you mean by this? How can I unpacked this?

    thanks,
