Bug: The file is "not a valid archive"

"Bump" is just use to bring an old topic to which no one has responded to, back to the top of the list, so it is more noticeable, and marked as unread post so people will check it.

If its invalid its your download not the zip as it works at this end and it uploaded fine, I think .

Bug: The file is "not a valid archive"

It must have gotten corrupted, it worked fine for me. Try downloading it again.

Depends on the tool you used to compress it, and the one you open it with. Winzip isnt always good, has a high file corruption coefficient, tends to corrupt them too much , lol

[Hunt7s]

Next time ill try and introduce a rar file or somthing, Or is there a way to produce a zip file with winrar so that it is less likly to go invalid.

I get invalid archive too. This was because the transfer was cut off prematurely. I'll try downloading it again. Compressed files are more susceptible to corruption through transfer than other files and the server keeping the file can have an effect on the stability of transfers.

I'd like to stress that I've never ever had a problem with my own zip files using winzip. In fact in my life I have only ever had about 20 zip files go awry and they were ones I downloaded or were on damaged floppy disks (I have worked with over a thousand zip files in my life without problems).
So what's this "winzip has a high file corruption coefficient"? Maybe you're using an ancient version of winzip. I personally reccommend winzip as one of the best file compression utilities available.
In fact, I have so far had only 50% of my own rar files not go corrupt so I think the rar format is extremely lacking.

// Update: I tried again and it downloaded properly. :)

Glad you got it working, It must be the cncguild servers. But that will be sorted out soon as they are moving so my site and forums will be gone for about a week till they have moved over and reinstated all the things. :)

Hopefuly this move will change the reliability of the site and the forum.

[ArgCmdr]

Not necessarily a week, might be only one day ;)

[Hunt7s]

Cool, i hope that you have backed up the site, :) and one day will be perfect for me. :) As i wont have a sertain some one on my back. lol.
