If I run my PHP file from the shell, then the tar command extracts to the directory I am in, rather than the one I specified using -C
My command is
passthru("tar xvf $file $tarfile/application $tarfile/application_detail $tarfile/application_device_type $tarfile/genre_application -C /var/www/vhosts/httpdocs/fred");
How can I have it extract the specific files to the specified destination directory?
The filename is filename.tgz
