I'm not sure I quite understand what you mean...

Do you mean that the file just doesn't have the executable bit set (i.e
-rw-r--r-- instead of -rwxr-xr-x), if you do, then use the chmod command
to set the executable bit (i.e. `chmod ugo+x foo.file`)

Or do you mean that the file is somehow encoded in some other way?

Does gzip report back any sort of error?

Stephen.
