Hi,

Once again I come looking for answers, so thanks in advance to replies.

I have file named UPatchCAAGAIAE_B.tar.Z, which I'm tring to use Archive::Zip on. I know that the code is correct as it unzips other files fine.

my $extract_file = $start_path . $env . "\\mrf" . $mrf_num . "\\$item"
+;     
            
      my $zip = Archive::Zip->new();  
      
      if($zip->read($extract_file) != AZ_OK) {
         die "Unable to decompress zip file '$extract_file'";
      }
[download]

However when I try to unzip this, it falls over, see error message below.

Any suggestions??

Thanks
