how to extract winzip files?
Hello, Is there a way, I can uncompress zip files made under win? Unzip from ports collection probably can't do that: End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on the last disk(s) of this archive. and I'm sure this is not multipart archive or broken file.

Then something else is wrong since unzip() can handle such files easily. -- Cheers, Bernard ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

My guess is the file you're attempting to unzip is corrupt somehow, or simply not a ZIP file at all. Try running the `file' command on it, eg. $file /usr/ports/distfiles/ue400dev.zip /usr/ports/distfiles/ue400dev.zip: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on the last disk(s) of this archive. and I'm sure this is not multipart archive or broken file. I suppose it's possible that more recent versions of WinZip generate ZIP files that can't be decompressed (or decrypted) by InfoZip's Unzip, but I'm fairly certain that Unzip wouldn't return this error message as a result. The central directory should still exist in the ZIP file.

If this was a zip file created by WinXP itself I seem to remember having trouble unzipping such files with unzip. I resorted to using winzip or winrar or some such to create archives - which then extract fine using unzip. -- Jez Hancock - System Administrator / PHP Developer http://munk.nu/ http://jez.hancock-family.com/ - Another FreeBSD Diary http://ipfwstats.sf.net/- ipfw peruser traffic logging ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
