error when unzipping

Ravinder Singh Gill — Tue, 03 Jan 2006 12:46:31 GMT

Guys I am trying to unzip a file and I get the following error. It is a big file. Can anyone help?

system:/u01/oradata/VIMC_DEV/AP# unzip paf1.zip
Archive: paf1.zip
inflating: paf.txt
paf.txt: write error (disk full?). Continue? (y/n/^C)

looks like you don't have room on the disk for both the zip file and the temporary file it is using to unzip the new file.

Look for another file system to unzip the file on.

There is about 10GB free before I unzip the file and the unzipping stops at about 2GB (that is when this problem occurs).

Ravi ,

Seems you have no space on /u01/oradata/VIMC_DEV/AP.
Check it once again.
Also try to unzip the file in a different filesystem. How big is the file ?

You can use also use the preview option of unzip to see the zip file contenet.

hth,
Raj.

Before trying unzip:

videv01:/u01/oradata/VIMC_DEV/AP# ls -ltr
total 957376
-rwxrwxrwx 1 oracle dba 490171306 Jan 3 17:15 paf1.zip
videv01:/u01/oradata/VIMC_DEV/AP# bdf .
Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
/dev/vgBS23/lvVIMCDEV
54001664 41449072 12455296 77% /u01/oradata/VIMC_DEV
videv01:/u01/oradata/VIMC_DEV/AP#

Then trying unzip:

videv01:/u01/oradata/VIMC_DEV/AP# unzip paf1.zip
Archive: paf1.zip
inflating: paf.txt
paf.txt: write error (disk full?). Continue? (y/n/^C)

After:

-rwxrwxrwx 1 oracle dba 490171306 Jan 3 17:15 paf1.zip
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 2147483647 Jan 3 17:56 paf.txt
videv01:/u01/oradata/VIMC_DEV/AP# bdf .
Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
/dev/vgBS23/lvVIMCDEV
54001664 43546232 10374520 81% /u01/oradata/VIMC_DEV

When it gives the error and asks if I want to cancel or continue...should i continue? what will this cause to happen?

Hi,

you need to have largefiles enabled to create a file larger than 2GB in the Filesystem. The file that you are extracting "paf.txt" is more than 2GB in size and while inflating the file extraction stops after extracting 2GB of it.

You need to enable "largefiles" for the Filesystem.

To chekk if you have largefiles enabled, try,

fsadm -v /mount_point

If this says "nolargefiles", enable largefiles to proceed with this FS, else use another one that has largefiles enabled.

Hope this helps.

Hi

You need to use the unzip utility which supports more that 2GB, we had the same issue and put the unzip which can do more than 2GB.

how do i check if our unzip utility supports files greater then 2GB?

i have read around and been told if the unzip tool used was compiled with 32bit mode, it will not support files greater then 2gb.

Also please note largefiles is enabled.

Hello, Two options here, 1) Check you have largefile support enabled in your FS.

# fsadm -v /mount_point

2)You can use jar utility which comes with Java, # /opt/java1.4/bin/jar -xvf

If you want 64 bit version of jar, its in

/opt/java1.4/bin/PA_RISC2.0/jar

Ravinder,
to check whether you have 32 or 64 bit version of unzip:
which unzip
cd to the directory returned from the first command
file unzip

if PA-RISC then its 32bit, if ELF then 64bit

Ravinder Singh Gill — Wed, 04 Jan 2006 06:21:03 GMT

Peter, what do you mean? can you please explain.

Thanks.

Peter Godron — Wed, 04 Jan 2006 06:41:34 GMT

Ravinder,
copy of output on my box:
$ which unzip
/usr/contrib/bin/unzip
$ cd /usr/contrib/bin
$ file unzip
unzip: PA-RISC1.1 shared executable dynamically linked
$
This would indicate to me my version of unzip is a 32 bit executable.

I think for large file extract you will require 64bit version

Re: error when unzipping

Ravinder Singh Gill — Wed, 04 Jan 2006 06:42:04 GMT

Also we don't have jar 1.4 we only have jar 1.2 and 1.3. Also if this is a normal zip file will the jar utility work okay on it?

Re: error when unzipping

Ravinder Singh Gill — Wed, 04 Jan 2006 06:45:24 GMT

Ok I have done what Peter said. I can confirm that the version of unzip is a 32bit executable. How can this be resolved?

Re: error when unzipping

Arunvijai_4 — Wed, 04 Jan 2006 06:46:02 GMT

Hello,

That should be fine. (Java 1.2 or 1.3)

Re: error when unzipping

Ravinder Singh Gill — Wed, 04 Jan 2006 06:58:09 GMT

so should i be doing?

/opt/java1.3/bin/jar -xvf paf1.zip

or

/opt/java1.3/bin/PA_RISC2.0/jar -xvf paf1.zip

??

Re: error when unzipping

Arunvijai_4 — Wed, 04 Jan 2006 06:59:50 GMT

/opt/java1.3/bin/PA_RISC2.0/jar -xvf paf1.zip

will be OK
