If you haven't already done so, try downloading and extracting the tar.gz instead of the zip to see if you have better luck... Most popular decompression softwares can handle tar files...

Thanks Ralph,

Still no luck, tried all sorts of combinations and unzippers.
I am now starting from the psd file, but seems foolish redoing what is already done.

The errors appear to be with the output of the files, not with being able to read the archives. Does the user account you are using have the necessary access permissions to the area you are trying to write to?

[Ralph]

The NamibiaV2.zip file appears to have become corrupted, or was never a good file, as I haven't been able to extract using any of several different softwares on two different OS platforms...

[darren]

wow what a mess... my sincere apologies - lets try this again. if this doesn't' work i'll just copy/paste the template and css files...the images folder can be found other places. don't start over with the psd...

Hi Darren,

I uploaded both zip files to one of my linux servers where I am considering using Etomite and tried to unpack them there. Both files fail to unzip, just as they did under windows.

I have cut and pasted the css and template you posted separately, thanks very much.

Keith

winrar mate
I use it on XP and Vista without ANY dramas at all. just right click the zip file and choose "Extract to" ... it will create a folder in the same directory as the zip file and unpack it with ALL files and directories in FULL tact.
Nice template btw...

***UPDATE***
I just downloaded the zip myself and used winrar to extract it. No problems at all - index.txt file, css folder and images folder. everything there (haven't tested it on my eto install, but the extract worked no probs)

If the package extracted using Winrar then it was probably compressed with Winrar and may not be compressed as a valid zip file... Any chance you can use something like Windows compressor or WinZip to compress those files and post the zip here...???

The currently uploaded files were compressed with the xp utility, previously I had used WinZip to compress them - those did seem to get corrupted either while being compressed or while being uploaded.

If petewalker could post his files here maybe that would solve the issue.

Hi Darren,

With due respect, winrar is not a free package, only a free download. If it produces a non-standard zip file in order to force us to purchase their software I for one won't.

Surely if the file has a zip suffix in should conform to zip standards, none of us would have a problem unzipping the contents with "industry standard" unzip programs?

just my 2 cents worth

It's entirely possible that the file may have become corrupt during initial upload or during a subsequent data migration... Considering how we don't have an initial CRC to compare against, the WHY behind the file corruption is open to speculation... I'd just like to see a non-corrupted version make its way into this thread...

wouldn't let me upload to the forums matey.... /sigh
grab it from here for now i guess.

Ftped to my 000webhost account

***Edit: I checked the files after uploading and the index.txt file kept coming up blank, so grab the "template.htm" file instead - it works

Very quick mention btw Keith - I just tested the zip that i put up yesterday (on another copmuter, running vista) and it unpacked without any dramas... not sure if that is helpfull to u tho.

[petewalker]

i tried to upload the 'index.txt' file, which is the template (i realise now its been code pasted in a previous reply) and it wouldnt allow it, then same thing with 3 images...

[Dean]
