How to unzip files in Shell script

Hi Gurus,
I have one requirement, where in I need to unzip files at at unix level and then move to the respective folders. How can I code this in the shell script.
As it is entirely new thing, please let me know how to do this. Seeking few program steps.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards
Nagendra

You can specify unzip -d directory to tell unzip where to extract the files. For instance:
dest_dir="/tmp/$(date +%N)"
# zip file is cmd line argument $1
unzip -d $dest_dir "$1"
cd $dest_dirI don't know of any way to automatically go to a zip'ed directory stored inside the zip file. Besides, where do you want to go in case there are several directories stored?

sure about that what reason behind of zip file get corrupt and inaccessible. If anyone knows about such tools which repair corrupt zip files quickly then shares with me that software information detail.
Thanks

How to unzip a .tar.tar file

Hi ,
I have downloaded jexel api from net. But it come as jexcelapi_2_5_9.tar.tar. i tried to unzip using winzip. But its not working. Can anybody tell how to unzip this?

Winzip knows how to read tar files.
This is just a wild guess, but try this:
- Copy the file, and rename it jexcelapi_2_5_9.tar.gz
- You may have to do this in cmd.exe because the Windows graphical shell often screws up file names
- Then use WinZip on the copy of the file with the new name.
I'm thinking that maybe when you downloaded the file the filename got corrupted.

Downloading and burning Linux or Windows ISO images for example with a single flipped bit can cause system instability nearly impossible to track down, and not otherwise detectable. An MD5 checksum (OR SHA) check will quickly detect any such transmission errors. Not something anyone I know bothers to use unless it's important data. The temporary fix of changing the about:config setting, then expanding to full screen in downloads was working. But now, based on my interpretation of comments made on the authors Sourceforge page, Firefox has made updates that prevent the MD5 Reborned Hasher from working in Firefox at all. If that's true, I would really like to know the reason. With all this talk of NSA spying, I would think more people would be interested in making sure someone isn't tampering with their downloads. I have no idea. But I do believe the wonderful volunteers at Firefox need to figure out a way to make this valuable piece of security software whole again. Thank You.
PS: For those needing to verify a file, you might want to try the "Microsoft File Checksum Integrity Verifier" kb841290 . It's old, but does large file MD5 from a command prompt.

How do I unzip files on a mac?

Does tiger have an application that can unzip files?
If not, does anyone have any software recomendations?
I want to download and unzip Cube Cart e-commerce software.
Thanks,
Ed

If the software is not made for the Mac, unzipping it might not do very much good, unless you get an emulator, virtualization or Boot Camp style solution. There are e-commerce solutions made for the Mac you can find http://guide.apple.com/ http://www.macupdate.com/ http://www.versiontracker.com/ that are compressed in a way that the built-in Mac software for decompression can handle for the most part. Occasionally, you'll find an old software package that was compressed in a Stuffit format which since Tiger has not had a built-in decompressor software. For that you'll want:

How do: Unzip an .exe file (a firmware update for a Samsung TV) and what is the best unzip software to use...Thanks

Mac Book Pro 15" (mid 209) LION OS 10.7.5, Samsung instructions from their website: download firmware update. Doubleclick on USB and unzip file. (I dont have any unzip software as of yet; at least I dont think I do, because when I attempt to unzip the file, a page pops up that looks like hieroglyphics)
Thanks in advance.

You cannot open .exe files on a Mac. Was there no .dmg file, or something on Samdung's website about a download for Mac? Seems typical of Samdung to do things like this.

UNZIP file from ABAP

Hi,
I have a requirement to retrieve a zip file from the FTP Server, unzip it to the SAP Server and process the unzipped files. Retrieving the data from the FTP server should work via FTP commands which can be executed from within an ABAP program. However, the problem is unzipping these files via ABAP and put them on the server as well. 1. How to do this from within an ABAP Program? (unix commands?)
2. Can I unzip these files with or without using the folder structure? (additional parameter for unix command?)
Kind regards,
Micky.

while running give the command as

then it will unzip test.zip file to dir called dir.
you can specify the filepath instead of file...

Unzip file using operating system command in file/ftp receiver adapter

Hi,
I'm wonderdering how to unzip a zip-file in the receiver file/ftp adapter. I know it is possible to do it using the 'Operating system command' feature, but somehow the command I use seems to be ignored! (I'm using SP14, unix).
The command I entered is quite simple: unzip %F (also tried the %f, but i guess it doesn't really matter wich on I use).
Is it possible that I'm unzipping to another directory than the one i expect? the unzip should be performed to/in the current directory, and assumingly current directory is the one stated in the 'Target Directory', right?
Hope someone can clearify this issue for me.
Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
It seems to me also, that the files are being unzipped to a different location than what you are expecting. The OS command might getting executed in some default location(i am trying to fnd that out)on the server and not in the target directory of the channel(It seems logical to me)....
If you have time...pls try this out & see whether this would help...
Have a shell script written with the following commands in them
cd <path to target directory>
unzip $1(filename from the channel)
and in the OS command in the Channel give....
<absolute path to the .sh file> %F
Thanks,
Renjith.
