Problem unzip file (Solved)

When I go to uncompress a .rar file with nemo, nautilus I get this error.
Error: Parsing filters is unsupported
It seems to be a problem with libarchive , I'm not sure , but I can not find a solution.
Any idea
Thanks

Is it another symptom of this issue https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=196198
Does the PKGBUILD with patch from that thread fix your issue?

  • Help - problem unzipping files on Terminal

    Hi,
    I have been unzipping files (zip and rar) using Terminal for quite sometimes now. For unknown reasons, it's given me some problems unzipping today.
    When I typed cd. /desktop, as I did in the past, it suddenly showed an error:
    -bash: -bash:: command not found
    I typed "/bin/echo $PATH", as I saw other previous posts have suggested. The result:
    /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
    I am not sure what that means, i.e. is it ok? or is it not? and how do I fix the problem if not ok?
    I am completely IT illiterate, especially when it comes to any computer language. So please, a simple and straight forward answer, or preferrably a step-by-step guide, will be truly appreciated.
    Many thanks for your kind assistance in advance.

    MrHoffman, thanks ever so much for the helpful answer.
    a "cd ~/Desktop" instead of "a dot and a space" did allow me to unzip my files finally!
    Just wonder, by doing what I have just done, i.e. a dot and a space and then the target directory, had I already committed the sins of damaging the "Path" (something I learned from reading other similar posts in the forum)... Basically, I just want to know if i have damaged the file contents... and if so, how bad is the damage? (so far, my Mac works fine....)
    Digress, I would have loved to stay away from using Terminal as far away as I could, since I am dreading of the thought of me ended up doing something damaging to the lovely Mac. But unfortuantely, there isn't any idiot-friendly tool available for unzipping any password-protected zip files.... Would appreciate if you could offer any alternative solution to this, i.e. other than using Terminal! (NB. I have also looked into using EZ 7z and X7zX for Mac before, both of which i just gave up in the end!)
    Anyhow, thanks! : )

  • Problems unzipping files

    Hello there,
    I tried to create two small programs: Zip and UnZip, using the java.util.zip package. The Zip file works perfectly and WinAce can read the files zipped. But the UnZip program doesn't seem to work: it unzips
    the files almost correctly. I unzipped a text file and it's readable, but except for the normal characters that appeared in the original text, some other not-displayable characters appear at certain points (quite many since the unzipped files are a few kilob bigger that the original not-zipped file). I really don't understand what the problem is. Well, actually, I didn't read any tutorial about using java.util.zip, I just read the API documentation and I sorted out a way of zipping and unzipping. Please, if you can, tell me what is the problem with the program:
    public class UnZip
         public static void main(String[] arg)
              try
                   if (arg.length < 1)
                        System.out.println("Usage: java UnZip <zip file> [to dir]");
                        System.exit(0);
                   String dir = "";
                   if (arg.length > 1)
                        dir = arg[1] + System.getProperty("file.separator");
                        File f = new File(arg[1]);
                        if (!f.exists()) f.mkdirs();
                   System.out.println("Decompressing files from file " + arg[0]);
                   ZipFile read = null;
                   try
                        read = new ZipFile(arg[0]);
                   catch (ZipException ex)
                        System.err.println("Zip error when reading file " + arg[0]);
                        System.exit(1);
                   catch (IOException ex)
                        System.err.println("I/O Exception when reading file " + arg[0]);
                        System.exit(1);
                   Enumeration en = read.entries();
                   while (en.hasMoreElements())
                        ZipEntry entry = (ZipEntry) en.nextElement();
                        System.out.println("\tDecompressing file " + entry.getName());
                        FileOutputStream out;
                        try
                             out = new FileOutputStream(dir + entry.getName());
                        catch (FileNotFoundException ex)
                             System.err.println("\tCannot write down to file " + dir + entry.getName());
                             continue;
                        InputStream re = read.getInputStream(entry);
                        int av = 0;
                        while ((av = re.available()) != 0)
                             byte[] b = new byte[av < 64 ? av : 64];
                             re.read(b);
                             out.write(b);
                        out.close();
                        System.out.println("\tDone decompressing file " + entry.getName());
                   read.close();
                   System.out.println("Done decompressing files");
              catch (Exception e)
                   new File(arg[1]).delete();
                   e.printStackTrace(System.err);
    }

    It is the following code which has a swapped conditional expression,
    and also I would loop differently.
              int av = 0;
              while ((av = re.available()) != 0)
                   byte[] b = new byte[av < 64 ? av : 64];
                   re.read(b);
                   out.write(b);
              }Move the byte buffer outside, and better think in kilobytes.
    Read is waiting and forcing an actual read, so it seems
    safer than an available.
    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
    for (;;) {
        int nread = re.read(buffer);
        if (nread < 0)
            break;
        out.write(buffer, 0, nread);

  • Problems unzipping files downloaded from Firefox using Windows built-in extractor tool

    Hi,
    I am running Firefox v26 on a Windows 7 (64-bit) PC. I work for a library that is able to reproduce digital audio books that we can download from the Library of Congress's National Library Service (NLS) for the Blind and Physically Handicapped. I use Firefox to download a lot of zipped audio books for my job. The file formats found in one book's zipped folder often include the following file types: .3gp (they're like a more compressed MP3 audio file), .mp3, .ncx, .opf, .pncx, .ppf, .smil, .md5, .dtd, .ent, and .ao.
    If I use Windows' built-in extraction tool to unzip an audio book I have downloaded via Firefox the extraction process ends prematurely and acts as if it was successful, but in reality some files are were never extracted. For example, I downloaded a zipped audio book that contained 21 files and weighed in at 87.6MB. The built-in Windows extraction tool only unzipped 2 files weighing in at 30.3MB.
    I have downloaded this same zipped audio book using Google's Chrome v31 and IE 11. Both downloads unzipped successfully using Windows' extractor. To make things even more bizarre, I *was* able to successfully unzip my audio book that I downloaded using Firefox using a 3rd party extraction tool called Extract Now. Because I tend to use this 3rd party program to extract my audio files I don't know at which version of Firefox this problem started. All I know if that this hasn't always been the case.
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    -Dan M.

    Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps with extracting files.

  • Problems Unzipping file on my desktop

    When I try to unzip a file, I get a message: "Unable to unarchive "name of file" into "Desktop". (Error 1 - Operation not permitted.)". The file is 9.3 Gb, but I have opened files exactly like this in the recent past. Any suggestions?
    I am using mac os 10.6.8.

    How are the permissions of your file? How is the extension of the file? Is it .zip ?
    Could you post back the result of (copy and paste in your Terminal of these comands followed by <enter>):
    cd ~/Desktop
    ls -l
    Is this command in the Terminal working:
    unzip yourfile.zip
    Can you move the file to an other folder of your home directory?

  • Is the gapless / pause problem with Lossless files solved on 120 GB?

    Hey everyone,
    I broke my trusty fifth gen 80 GB iPod a few months ago and recently purchased a 160 GB Classic to replace it. I've had two problems that I now know from searching this form that everyone else has had - the iPod pauses between tracks (all my library is Lossless) and it also pauses at random points in songs every now and again (not to mention being horrendously slow when browsing menus). Annoyingly, when I convert the exact same files to MP3 or AAC they play seamlessly no problem.
    Like I said, I've searched the forum and although I've found suggestions for the cause, I can't find confirmation that this problem has been solved with the 120 GB Classic. I've sent my 160 GB Classic back for a refund and I don't know whether to send my 80 GB off for repair or buy a new 120 GB Classic.
    Has anybody tested to see if Lossless files will play seamlessly without pausing on the new 120 GB?
    Many thanks!

    I have some lossless audio files and others in various quality, and the songs (no matter what quality) will sometimes get cut off and the next track on the playlist plays. I don't understand why this is happening, but it doesn't look like the problem you posted about is solved yet.

  • Problem with unzipping file

    I am trying to unzip a file using java.util.zip. It is throwing a ZipException in the first line where I instantiate ZipFile object.
    ZipFile oFile = new ZipFile("/myzip.zip");java.util.jar is not working either. It fails right here:
    JarFile oFile = new JarFile("/myzip.zip");Here is the exception thrown in the above cases:
    java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file
            at java.util.zip.ZipFile.open(Native Method)
            at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(Unknown Source)
            at java.util.jar.JarFile.<init>(Unknown Source)
            at java.util.jar.JarFile.<init>(Unknown Source)
            at ReadZipFile.main(ReadZipFile.java:21)
    An interesting observation:
    I am able to extract the contents of the zip from the command-line using jar utility.
    jar xvf myzip.zipI am stumped! I think jar utility internally uses the same classes for unzipping files. How come it is working with jar utility whereas it is not working from Java program? Also, the myzip.zip appears to be a valid archive - I am able to open it with winzip.
    Any pointers will be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ganesh

    I think the above reply is correct but didn't explain why you would be getting a file not found. Unless you have your zip file at the root of your harddrive the slash in the filename is improper. Without the slash your code will assume your current working directory and look for the file there.
    By putting that forward slash in there you are telling the code to look at the root of the filestructure and NOT at the current working directory.

  • Unzip file using PayloadZipBean in Sender FILE adapter

    I am trying to unzip a flat file in Sender FILE adapter using PayloadZipBean.
    I am getting mapping error. The problem is File adapter is reading data without unzipping. I am getting weird characters/data, so mapping error.
    I searched all the blogs/ forum threads and help.sap.com, everywhere the focus is on zipping, not unzipping.
    the file I have is with .gz extension, but I tried with .zip extension also.
    Please help in resolving this issue.
    Edited by: Gopal Janagama on May 2, 2008 11:42 PM

    Gopal,
    GZIP and ZIP format are slightly different, as stated here :
    "GZIP compresses only one file and does not have a header. ZIP contains header information about what files are contained in the file."
    So I'm not sure the PayloadZipBean supports GZIP format ... Try to ungzip and then zip its content and see if the bean works for it

  • 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?)

  • Problem in File Sender Adapter in File with quotes

    Hi experts.
    We're having a problem in File Sender Adpapter.
    We've configured the adapter with FCC. We use the fieldSeparator = ; to convert the file to xml.
    The problem arises when between two ; appears a quote. For insantce in this line:
    HUMALVAL MASCOTAS S.L.;"AV/DE EUROPA SN;P.IND.ALCORCO;28922;ALCORCON;40.349968;-3.847452;
    The adapter shows this error:
    More elements in file csv structure than field names specified.
    If the line was (without "):
    HUMALVAL MASCOTAS S.L.;AV/DE EUROPA SN;P.IND.ALCORCO;28922;ALCORCON;40.349968;-3.847452;
    everything would work correctly.
    How could we solve this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Please use  xml.enclosureSign=u201C in your sender FCC.
    Hopes this helps to you.

  • Problem with file transfer over the net

    Hi!I'm trying to make a program that allows to send/receive files and I'm almost done,except for a little problem:the file received has some bytes missing at the end!
    For example if I send a text the last 2-3 lines are missing,same thing for an image,an html document,etc.,although the file opens without any problem.As transport-level protocol I'm using TCP so it's not a networking problem,I think the problem is in the application layer so I post here the code,hoping someone helps me out(in this example I'm trying to send an image .jpg):
    Sender:
    Socket connectionSocket=new Socket("ipadress",port);
    FileInputStream source=new FileInputStream(System.getProperty("user.home")+"\\Documents\\image.jpg");
    BufferedOutputStream send=new BufferedOutputStream(connectionSocket.getOutputStream());
    int c;
    while ((c = source.read()) !=-1)
                    send.write(c1);
    Receiver
    ServerSocket receiverSocket=new ServerSocket(port);
    Socket  connection=receiverSocket.accept();
    BufferedInputStream rec=new BufferedInputStream(connection.getInputStream());
    FileOutputStream receivedFile=new FileOutputStream(System.getProperty("user.dir")+"\\received.jpg");
    int c;
    while ((c = rec.read()) != -1)
                    receivedFile.write(c);I think the problem is in this code:somehow the sender stops sending bytes before the end of the file is actually reached...what do u think?

    Thank you so much!At the end it was a very stupid mistake!:D
    Btw now that the main problem is solved I continue posting asking for your opinion:is this program for you efficient enough?Or there's a better way to do file transfer?

    Hello,
    I've got a problem removing files from CVS :

    - The file is removed from local directory, and it appears in "Pending changes" view, on "Outgoing" tab. Its status is "scheduled for removal".
    - When I commit the file in the "Pending Changes" view, and click OK, then nothing happens. The file stay with "scheduled for removal" status, and it is not deleted on CVS server.
    I tried to commit the package or the project, but it's the same thing.
    Files additions and modifications work correctly.
    I'm using JDeveloper 10.1.3 Preview version.
    Is this a bug ? Or do I do something wrong ? Is there an other way to solve my problem ?
