How to fix "tar: Removing leading `/' from member names" warning?

I'm trying to create tar.gz file but I keep getting the error tar: Removing leading `/' from member names by doing:

sudo tar -zcf test.tar.gz /opt/stagecoach/apps/test/current/

Ive googled it and found the -P option but I still get the same error. Any ideas?

Solution

  • Try this:

    sudo tar -cvzf test.tar.gz /opt/stagecoach/apps/test/current
