Unable to install pia to Linux Ubuntu 16.04

in Linux VPN Setup
I have downloaded tar, extracted it, added executive right and tried to run script. This is what I have got.
ilgam:/ $ ./pia-v79-installer-linux.sh 
xz: (stdin): Unexpected end of input 
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive 
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive 
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

    afaik, the download isn't a 'tar'  but a compressed tar.
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 user0 user0 118834179 Apr 18 23:01 pia-v79-installer-linux.tar.gz
    then, after tar xvf pia-v79-installer-linux.tar.gz , you get
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 user0 user0 118818580 Apr 11 12:31 pia-v79-installer-linux.sh

    NOTE! the script has the permission bits set appropriately already!

    ps: download is a gzip compressed tape archive file. fully specified, the tar options are: xzvf . as shown above implied: xavf and the .gz determined the use of gzip ('z') compression. message from xv in your post implies you used the 'J' option.
