This is an odd one. Has anyone else verified the zip patches (cmsmvs version) applied results in the same message when zipping files over 4GB : " zip error: Entry too big to split, read, or write (Poor compression resulted in unexpectedly large entry - try -fz)" or does it work ? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > I uploaded a fixed patch for unzip to the the Info-ZIP forum this >evening.

I applied this patch for unzip, and it works : ==> call userid.infozip(unzip) '-t userid.testmake.ZIP' Archive: userid.testmake.zip testing: notes OK testing: testmake.zipinfo OK No errors detected in compressed data of userid.testmake.zip. *** ==> call userid.infozip(unzip) '-a userid.testmake.ZIP -d userid.testmake' Archive: userid.testmake.zip inflating: userid.testmake(notes) inflating: userid.testmake.zipinfo(testmake) *** This allocates the files & it is readable. In batch // PARM='/-a TESTMAKE.ZIP -d "userid.TESTMAKE"' job completes with RC=0, & I get this message but the dataset does not get created (perhaps writing to hfs/zfs, but cannot find it). Archive: TESTMAKE.ZIP inflating: userid.TESTMAKE(notes) inflating: userid.TESTMAKE.zipinfo(testmake) Unzip (USS/unix) still works fine. /tmp/infozip/unzip60/mvs: >/infozip/unzip60/unzip -l testmake.zip Archive: testmake.zip Length Date Time Name --------- ---------- ----- ---- 126 11-19-1998 21:46 notes 236 11-19-1998 21:46 testmake.zipinfo --------- ------- 362 2 files > I'm hoping we can get him to give us a hand there, >but I haven't heard anything from him lately.
