IIRC, this problem comes from trying to access files that were compressed as part of building the APK. Hence, to work around the issue, give it a file extension that won't be compressed. I forget the list of what extensions are skipped, but file types known to already be compressed (e.g., mp3, jpg) may work. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Warescription: Three Android Books, Plus Updates, $35/Year --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
