PROBLEMS:
I have Huawei AP that need Diagnostic file to be extracted
Extract tar generated by "Maintenance>Diagnosis Tool>One-click Information Collection" using Windows 7zip give error but successfully extract using windows tar
INFO:
-Huawei AP5030DN FAT V200R019C00SPC907
-7zip latest version as of today
Extract using windows tar result extracted and no error message
diagnostic-information.txt>file properties>size on disk=847,872
md5 8998648a43b51e9e5c2049a194b0522a
Extract using 7zip result extracted but error message "Unexpected end of data"
diagnostic-information.txt>file properties>size on disk=847,872
md5 8998648a43b51e9e5c2049a194b0522a
So must be something in tar that 7zip didn't like
Could someone tell me what's wrong with tar file so that I can report to Huawei
