Having issues unzipping a .tgz file - file

Trying to open a zipped file with a .tgz extension in the desktop, tried opening with archive utility and am being told 'unable to expand into desktop' error 1 - operation not permitted. When i try to unzip the file in terminal it says it cannot be found.
No idea what's going on. Any clues?

The .tgz extension implies that the arhive is a zipped 'tar ball'. So there are two kinds of compression applied to the file. Is it possible that you are using a windows utility that can unzip but not untar? If not, if you are in Linux try using the console and running the command: tar -zxvf <yourarchive>.tgz

'mongo' is still not working on PowerShell after doing all recommended things

I installed MongoDB and tried to run it on terminal. It just shows up 'mongo' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I have set the path to bin folder inside Environment variables too. One thing I noticed is I might have a missing file inside bin folder and that is mongo. Because I have mongod and mongos file inside the bin folder. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the program and it was still not working.
I have no idea it's what that I'm missing. Please help out
Finally I have found the solution,
Mongo shell no longer ships with server binaries. We can download it from MongoDB Shell Download
Then we should extract the contents of the bin from the downloaded zip file to the bin file of the MongoDB folder and run mongosh instead of mongo on the terminal

How to rename a downloaded file from within the WinSCP script?

I have WinSCP script that downloads a file from the SFTP server to the local machine. How can I rename the file from within the WinSCP script?
The script is being run from Windows machine.
The WinSCP script:
option batch off
option confirm off
open sftp://username:password#servername -hostkey=""
option transfer binary
get -latest "oldname.csv" c:\localfolder
mv c:\localfolder\oldname.csv latestname.csv
exit
I tried renaming using the commands:
rename InitialFileName FinalFileName
then tried using:
mv InitialFileName FinalFileName
But the script is throwing the error:
File not found, Language: en
Tried stuff from this blog
If you want to download the file to a different name, specify the new name directly in the get command:
get "oldname.csv" c:\localfolder\latestname.csv
(Note that when downloading one specific file, the -latest switch is pointless. The latest file out of one file[s] is that one file.)

Bat file is missing in jmeter bin folder

I just tried to install jmeter - (Apache-j meter-5.1.1) but when I view the bin folder bat file is missing. My configuration details: version of jdk is 12.0.2, my operation system is 64 bit. View the screenshot of bin folder -

Type Windows Batch File is a file type with extension .bat
You have such jmeter file in your screenshot
A batch file is a script file in DOS, OS/2 and Microsoft Windows.
The filename extension .bat is used in DOS and Window
The jmeter.bat file can be obtained from JMeter sources at any time if you removed it by accident.
However in fact you do have the file:
You might want to configure Windows Explorer to show file extensions
In general I would recommend launching JMeter from Windows Command Prompt as in case of i.e. Java misconfiguration you will not be able to see the output given you launch JMeter by double-clicking the shortcut because it will blink and close immediately.
More information: How to Get Started With JMeter: Part 1 - Installation & Test Plans
Just double click on file type named as Jmeter with type as "Windows Batch File" or else open it from command prompt/terminal.

BIRT runtime 4.6.0 batch file not running

Trying to run a batch file on the latest version of BIRT. Upgraded from 3.7.1 to 4.6.0. The .bat file is exactly the same (other than changing the BIRT_HOME system variable).
The steps I took were as follows:
Downloaded 4.6.0 from an official mirror
Copied 2 jar files across into the BIRT_HOME/ReportEngine/lib folder. These jar files are jtds.jar and ojdbc6.jar so I can connect to an external database
Copied over my .bat file, report design file and report properties file
Edited the .bat file to give the correct location to BIRT_HOME
Executed the .bat file from command line
The error I get is:
Could not find or load main class org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.ReportRunner
The contents of my .bat file are:
#echo off
set BIRT_HOME=C:\birt-460\ReportEngine\
call %BIRT_HOME%genReport.bat -m runrender -o "output.PDF" -f PDF -F "reportproperties.properties" "reportproperties.rptDesign"
I can confirm that the following JAR file is present in my /lib folders: org.eclipse.birt.runtime_4.6.0-20160607.jar
The part I'm struggling with is that these steps work in 3.7.1 and 4.2.2, but not 4.6.0
Anyone got any ideas?
This is a bug in the 4.6.0 BIRT release.
As a workaround, simply remove the ECLIPSE_.RSA and ECLIPSE_.SF, from the META-INF/ folder in org.eclipse.birt.runtime_4.6.0-20160607.jar, which is in $BIRT_HOME/ReportEngine/lib/.
Refs: https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/1086829/
This is fixed in the BIRT 4.9 runtime.

Putty SFTP client - "error while reading: failure"

I'm writing my sFTP files download command which run in the batch mode by using "mget *.txt", intermittently, there is "error while reading: failure" in my log, and this resulted the downloaded file is 0 KB, however i'm very sure that this file is exist in directory, as before downloading, im executing the "ls *.txt" command, and the log indicated the problematic file actually is not 0KB. I am looking for any auto recovery method or how could i solve this issue?
Thanks.
As an alternative, you could try using rsync. The Grsync for Windows package includes rsync and a minimal amount of cygwin libraries to make it work. Install that, add c:\Program Files\Grsync\bin to your path, and you can rsync --progress --append user#remotehost:/path/to/*.txt localdest to recover and resume your transfer.
