Can't download themes or emulators error 'tar -xv -z -C

Try setting the date from the internet

sudo systemctl stop ntp
sudo ntpdate 2.debian.pool.ntp.org
 
# Check the date again
date

After first command nothing happened but after the 2nd command it said command not found

@edgarsv Try installing the ntpdate command with

sudo apt-get -y install ntpdate

and then retry to set the date.

[edgarsv]

I did what you told but the date didn't change saying 8 Jul 15:48:38 ntpdate[1531]: no server suitable for synchronization found

[mitu]

@edgarsv Try with the well known NIST time server:

sudo ntpdate time.nist.gov

[edgarsv]

That didn't work either... Is there a way to set by my self? What could the reason for it not founding the servers?

[mitu]

@edgarsv You can set the date with timedatectl - see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Time#Set_system_clock. But I suspect the problem is that your internet connection is not working correctly, RetroPie would have set the time and date automatically from the internet.

Probably easiest to just start with a 4.4 image - Jessie support will be dropped by us in the future anyway.

[edgarsv]

So... What should I do?

[edgarsv]

Should I change retropie's version to 4.4? or try to replase raspberry pi zero to raspberry pi 3?

[edgarsv]

Is that the solution for me?
