What exactly does not work? Is dd not working, or abe.jar, or both?

ghost commented 6 years ago

Sorry for not elaborating! openssl on MacOS does not have a zlib command. There are work-arounds, but they include installing openssl from source and building with zlib.

sushi2k commented 6 years ago

Ok. Usually it should run out of the box, you only need abe.jar. Can you please explain which command wasn't working and what error you were getting?

ghost commented 6 years ago

Right, sorry about the confusion. This may be a non-issue after all. When running dd if=mybackup.ab bs=24 skip=1|openssl zlib -d > mybackup.tar, I get the error openssl:Error: 'zlib' is an invalid command. on Mac OS High Sierra.

sushi2k commented 6 years ago

Ok. Otherwise just try abe.jar, as explained in the test case. I will close this issue now. Let us know if you still face issues. Thanks
