gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--format violated

How to repeat:
Download the archive and unpack it. The error happens on Mac OS X as well as on Linux. That seems to indicate that indeed the archive is corrupt.

Suggested fix:
Re-create the archive

Thank you for the report.

I can not repeat described behaviour in my environment:

Please be sure you downloaded Connector/ODBC from MySQL site and it wasn't corrupted during download. Check size of the file - it must be same as mine copy:

apple@apple ~/Desktop
$/bin/ls -la mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.15-osx10.4-x86-32bit.tar.gz 
-rw-r--r--   1 apple  apple  6769805 Jun 14 15:03 mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.15-osx10.4-x86-32bit.tar.gz

[14 Jun 2007 11:42] Christian Kirsch

Size is the same:

ck@held:~/software> ls -l mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.15-osx10.4-x86-32bit.tar.gz 
-rw-r--r-- 1 ck users 6769805  4. Mai 04:30 mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.15-osx10.4-x86-32bit.tar.gz

However, the MD5 sum differs from what you display on the website:

ck@held:~/software> md5sum < mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.15-osx10.4-x86-32bit.tar.gz 
04b073e9e8c102778fa53dff373a0d67  -

Again: Both checked on Linux (OpenSuSE 10.2) and Mac OS X (10.4.9, Intel iMac). 

I downloaded the files using wget, like this:
 wget http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MyODBC3/mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.15-osx10.4-x86-32bit....
(That was the default mirror suggested by your website, I just copy-pasted the link from your website)
When I manually select another mirror (namely fu-berlin.de), everything works out ok. So apparently only the copy at plusline is bogus.
