Hi, I have a question which is probably the most basic thing EVER asked on this forum... How does one "unpack" something to the root folder?
I am trying to follow the receipe to upgrade a site and am stopped at the second hurdle "Unpacking the new release: Unpack the new eZ publish release in the root of your eZ publish installation."
How is this done?

I'm assuming that you're on a Linux server...http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_6/installation/normal_installation/installing_ez_publish_on_a_linux_unix_based_system

Thanks for the quick reply. The heading says installation. Does this apply to upgrades as well?
So if I understand it correctly, I just go into PHPMyAdmin and enter
$ tar xvfz ezpublish-3.4.2.tar.gz -C public_html
and then its unpacked to my directory?

For most/all .tar.gz files, Yes. But I hope you've done a backup first.http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_6/installation/upgrading
