Use double quotes around the file name with the wildcard. Then it should work.

e.g.  SAPCAR -xvf "CO*SAR"

Hi,

Me too faced the same error while uncaring the files.

SAPCAR: not all files could be extracted

SAPCAR: 0 file(s) extracted

Went o service market place - downloaded the latest sapcar file. SET the environmental variable for new sapcar  file. Try extracting the files. It will work.

Thanks - Harry

Try

for i in `ls`; do SAPCAR -R /usr/sap/trans -xvf $i; done

Hi

You will have to extract each file individually.

hi

Correcting my earlier reply.

You can extract more than one archive using wildcards as follows:

So use command

#SAPCAR -xvf "*.SAR"
