What the heck is pax trying to tell me?

I enter the command

pax -wvzf /u/maint/myarchive.pax *   

and pax responds

FSUM7197 pax: invalid archive format selected: 'foldername'

where foldername is one of the directories in the current path.

What is pax trying to tell me and how do I fix it?

Thanks,

Charles
