More than once I've found that files claimed to be gzipped are not. Try renaming the file (remove the .gz extension) and running cpio or tar (whichever created the file) on it directly.

John,  

Is there any possibility you use FTP in ASCII mode? In reviewing your posting it seems you are getting a consitent result but you didn't mention whether you are trying different download methods. Can you download this using a different method or server?

When I download the 10G database .gz for AIX 5L from the Oracle TEchnology network download site, and try to run gunzip on it on AIX I get an "unexpected end of file" error.

The same happens if I try to unzip it using winzip on Windows

I have tried a number of times and get the same result. Disk space is not an issue.

Is the file corrupt?. The downloaded file is NOT the same size as stated on the downloads page
