Hi all, OK, so I don't duplicate on both lists - I've updated the question on http://stackoverflow.com/q/6232842/600500
I'll reply to Paulo's comments below as best as I can as well > Martijn Verburg skribis: > >> The resulting file always has a bad EOL character. > > A gzip file is binary, there are no EOL characters (there might be bytes > which are EOL characters under some (or most) interpretations, but you > should not try to interpret a gzip file as text.) > What are you doing here? > Could you post the full error message, if any? My apologies, it was actually "an unexpected EOF" when gunzipping the file. You're quite right - of course there's no EOLs! > If you write your gzippedContent locally on disk, does it work then? Yes (using GZIPOutputStream in combination with FileOutputStream). So this is where I think the difference is. The first part of of the resulting file is exactly the same as my internally gzipped byte[] (e.g. The raw content is gzipped correctly). The local file version has a whole bunch of extra bytes which I think is partly the checksum that gzip files should have? This is where I need to do some more research. > If you upload a local gzip file with the put(String, String) method, > does it work? Yes - I elaborated a little on the SO post. I'm not actually uploading a gzip file. I'm reading data from a DB, carrying that as a byte[] and trying to create a gzip file from that on the remote SFTP system. > Could you put both the locally written and the remote one on some > webspace and put a link here? (Repeat it with a innocent content if > your one is some secret). I've updated the SO post with the hex/byte output of both cases - let me know if you'd prefer the actual files. Thanks again for the help - it clarified my thinking and my research into the problem.
