Unzip windows file on Unix
Hi,
I FTP a zip file from the windows box (used WinZip to compress the files) and when i am trying to unzip on AIX box it is unzipping, it is aborting with following message
-------------------
error: expected central file header signature not found (file #0).
(please report to info-zip@wsmr-simtel20.army.mil)
warning: didn't find end-of-central-dir signature at end of central dir.
(please report to info-zip@wsmr-simtel20.army.mil)
-----------------
i am not sure what is causing this issues.
but the reason could be - as the zip file contains
the sub-folders in it and in sub-folders actual data files resides which i am interested. because of they being Windows folder structure and having spaces in the files names might be causing the issue.
Is there a ways to over the issues (of course if that is the cause) to get the windows files to unix box. I am trying to avoid multi layer process to bring the Zip file to windows environment and unzip and ftp the files to Unix Aix box.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks
