Hello, I got an error when trying to download data using:
mdopen("SNAP/web-Google")
Error Message: tar: Cannot connect to C: resolve failed
failed process: Process(`tar -vxf 'C:\path\path' -C 'C:\path\path' ....)
According to tar manual at chapter 6.1 Choosing and Naming Archive Files, "If the archive file name includes a colon (‘:’), then it is assumed to be a file on another machine" and also ". Filenames with a colon are common for Windows users (e.g., C: ) and if you need to use a file whose name includes a colon, then the remote tape drive behavior can be inhibited by using the ‘--force-local’ option".
The problem is solved by editing the download.jl line199 to run(tar --force-local -vxf $tarfile -C $dir). Maybe you should modify this line of code.
