I think -file is only for shipping executable or properties file.The extn .zip 
does not work.Please have a look @ MAPREDUCE-596

We are trying to pass into a streaming program a zip file. An invocation
looks like this:

/usr/local/hadoop/bin/hadoop jar
/usr/local/hadoop/contrib/streaming/hadoop-0.20.1+152-streaming.jar ...
 -file 'myfile.zip'
Within the program, it seems like a ZipFile invocation can't locate the zip
file.

Is there anything that might be problematic with a zip file when used with a
-f?
