how To Install OwnCloud on Linux

[GeekyISCOOL]

Hello Guys, I'm running the latest version of Ubuntu OS that is 'Ubuntu 16.04 LTS' and I wanted to install OwnCloud on it and followed this guide. I already have a LAMP stack installed on my Ubuntu but still I'm encountering few problems. I've downloaded the OwnCloud package and placed it into the Apache directory but still when I enter this command: # tar -jxvf owncloud-8.0.0.tar.bz2 it is unable to extract the archive and restarting the computer also doesn't work. Any help to make it working? Thanks.

I think he needs the "j" option for .bz2

Dunno... If you go to 13, they give an example using -j. I don't really use cli for archiving. I guess I'd have to play with it, and see what happens.
