Full Discussion: Unzip on Debian
Operating Systems Linux Debian Unzip on Debian Post 302646637 by jim mcnamara on Friday 25th of May 2012 10:57:06 AM

This zip file has an incomplete format. zipfiles that are complete have, among a lot of things, metadata (like a folder or directory) about the files in the archive.

A long time ago, when external floppy drives were small, Jean Luc Gailly adopted a strategy that allowed the zip file to span output volumes, so one zip "file" was actually 3 or four or more physical files. Each file filled one small floppy.

You have file #2 of 14 ( I made up pretend numbers, but this is what the error means). This file does not contain the metadata or directory. It is in #1 of 14.
