Frequently Asked Questions

Is this tool free?
Yes, the BZ2 to TAR.BZ2 Converter is completely free.
Are my files stored on the server?
No, your files are only used during the process and then deleted.

No, you can convert an unlimited number of files.
What formats are supported?
This tool converts BZ2 files to TAR.BZ2 format.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes, this tool can also be used seamlessly on mobile devices.

But in practice, there are two different needs:

  1. The input single file (foo.log.bz2). You want it to be packaged in the tar.bz2 standard.
  2. The input may actually be "tar.bz2" but its extension/distribution may be corrupted. The tool will normalize it.

TAR + bzip2 together produce a standard stream on the GNU tar side.  

What does the tool do?

  1. Decompresses BZ2 (single file)
  2. Puts the file into a TAR package
  3. Compresses TAR with bzip2 compressor
  4. Outputs: .tar.bz2

Smart TAR detection

If the decompressed file is already .tar:

  • You can repackage the content mode with tar content
  • or you can choose to “compress tar directly with bzip2” (the fastest way)

When is it chosen?

  • If .tar.bz2 is especially expected on the Linux side
  • If you want to fit a single file to the “tarball” standard
  • If you are doing archiving standardization

Usage steps

  1. Upload BZ2
