Interesting. 7z is a program, but for some reason your computer is trying to treat it as a shell script.

My best guess is that you used the 'tar' program in QShell rather than the one in PASE. But that's really a stab in the dark, since you've provided no details about what you did.

At the above location, Scott Klement has put a compiled version of 7-zip
for IBM i along with instructions for installing it. I downloaded the
version on his web site and I followed the directions to install. When I
try to run the 7z command, I get the following error:

/QOpenSys/usr/local/lib/p7zip/7z: 001-0046 Syntax error on line 1: matching
delimiter for quoted string not found.

Didn't receive any errors during installation. Any guesses as to what went
wrong?
