I believe the "IBM SDK for z/OS, Java 2 Technology Edition" includes a jar
command which handles zip files, and (though I've not tried it) this might
tickle your zAAP when you run it.  Get to a UNIX System Services command
prompt (either via OMVS or a direct network connection), then try this
(assuming you've uploaded a zip file in binary mode):

jar tvf /mypath/myzipfile.zip

where mypath and myzipfile are the correct names, of course.  You might
need the full path to the jar command if you don't have the PATH set up for
Java.

That jar command should simply produce a list of files/directories
contained inside the zip file.  And, when you run it, check to see if your
zAAP handles some of the processing.

For a reference describing the jar command options and syntax, this should
work well enough:

The jar command can create and extract zip files.  (jar files are in zip
format.)
