in reply to Quick question on Tar and Untaring Files

Hello,
I suspect you are not using the correct tar/untar flags.
Can you perform the process manually? How are you taring/untaring the files?
i.e.: 

tar czf file.tar.gz dir/
tar xzf file.tar.gz

  my $tar = Archive::Tar->new;
  $tar->add_files("$f1");
  $tar->add_files("$f2");
  $tar->write("final.tar");
