How is it not working?
Does it display an error, and if so what does the error say?
Which version of unzip have you installed?

unzip -l $archive is the command you should be issuing to get a list of the files.

unzip -tv $archive will verify the archive is not corrupted and list the contents if it is not

Same error
Hi,
i'm also facing same issue
i transferred a zip file from windows to unix in Binary mode
But i'm getting error message while doing unzip in unix

code: bash-3.2$ unzip xxxxxx.zip

message :
Archive: xxxxxx.zip
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.
unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of xxxxxx.zip or
PremiseNew.zip.zip, and cannot find xxxxx.zip.ZIP, period.

so tell me why i'm getting this type of error
