tar is not a downloading command, just an uncompressed one :)

So in 2 words : Download the file and after verifying it is there, do tar

The initial download from tar jxvf sage-9.1-Ubuntu_18.04-x86_64.tar.bz2 is not executing.  Unable to sagemath download pre-built binary from site.  Any thoughts?

    um, I'm not surprised that the file or directory can not be found
    on my machine.  Because it hasn't been downloaded yet.  That's
    what I'm attempting to do.  I used tar jxvf
    sage-9.1-Ubuntu_18.04-x86_64.tar.bz2 to download Sage last week on
    an identical different machine and it worked perfectly. So, it's
    odd that the exact command is not doing it now.

        If you check the results of this command, you will see what
        the problem is:

         "tar jxvf sage-9.1-Ubuntu_18.04-x86_64.tar.bz2: Cannot open:
        no such file or directory"

        This means that the “tar” command is not able to locate the
        file “sage-….” in the current directory.  You either need to
        run this command in the directory containing the file, or give
        the “full” file name to the command.
