Versions (relevant - OpenSearch/Dashboard/Server OS/Browser):

2.16

Describe the issue:

Running into issue where it is saying the tar file is not really gzipped?

[root]# tar -xvf opensearch-dashboards-2.16.0-linux-x64.tar.gz

gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

Checking the file shows it as not gzipped.

[root]# file opensearch-dashboards-2.16.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
opensearch-dashboards-2.16.0-linux-x64.tar.gz: data

Running it to unpack normal tar is not doing anything. I copied the contents over to a non-gzipped name file format as it is really a data file. The below runs fine but produces no results.

[root]# tar -xf opensearch-dashboards-2.16.0-linux-x64.tar

@jsabatel I’ve just downloaded from https://artifacts.opensearch.org/releases/bundle/opensearch-dashboards/2.16.0/opensearch-dashboards-2.16.0-linux-x64.tar.gz

I had no issues.

Thank you for the validation @pablo. I ended up just redownloading and now the tar file was able to correctly unpack.
