Full Discussion: Unable to ZIP without path
Operating Systems Linux Unable to ZIP without path Post 302867483 by apmcd47 on Thursday 24th of October 2013 09:36:10 AM

I know tar will use absolute paths and imagine zip does the same. That is:
Code:
zip  myproject.zip /home/myuname/myproject

will hard-code /home/myuname/project into the path of every item in myprojce.zip.

If you were not using ssh I would suggest this:
Code:
(cd //foothill/Applications/FoundationRelease/Deltek; zip -r InstallDirectory.zip InstallDirectory)

This should produce a zip file where items will unzip into local directory InstallDirectory.

You could try:
Code:
ssh rlinuxbuilduser@prd64db (cd //foothill/Applications/FoundationRelease/Deltek; zip -r InstallDirectory.zip InstallDirectory)

but I have no idea whether that will work.
