Operating Systems OS X (Apple) Converting Unix executable files Post 61517 by psyman on Friday 4th of February 2005 11:58:12 AM

I believe that the files in question may be on a samba share where the resource fork can not be stored properly or may have been corrupted. I had a heap of reason files do this and solved the problem by just adding the correct extension. Add .doc to the end of your word files and it should be OK.

This may be incorrect reason for the problem but the solution worked OK for me

NAME
/usr/bin/UnRezWack -- Split a RezWack file into separate data and resource files. SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/UnRezWack file -o outFileNameBase [-f] DESCRIPTION
The /usr/bin/UnRezWack command takes a file created by RezWack(1) as its input file (it does not read Standard In) and divides it into two files, one containing the data fork and one containing the resource data. /usr/bin/UnRezWack takes the following flags and arguments: file Path to the input file. This must be a file created with RezWack(1). -o outFileNameBase Base path of the output files. UnRezWack will create two files at this base path, one with the extension ".data" and one with the extension ".qtr". The resource data will be written to the data fork of the resource data file; it is not possible to create a HFS or Extended HFS resource fork file using UnRezWack. If either file exists, /usr/bin/UnRezWack will exit with error 2 unless the -f flag is provided. -f Force overwriting of output files. SEE ALSO
