Public bug reported: Binary package hint: file-roller
Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala file-roller 2.28.1-0ubuntu1 p7zip 9.04~dfsg.1-1 p7zip-full 9.04~dfsg.1-1 Steps to reproduce the problem: - create a folder; - create an empty file into that folder; - compress the folder as .7z with password AND files list encryption; - compress the same folder as .zip with password (in grey you can see the checkbox of files list encryption still selected). Error: 7-Zip 9.04 beta Copyright (c) 1999-2009 Igor Pavlov 2009-05-30 p7zip Version 9.04 (locale=it_IT.UTF-8,Utf16=on,HugeFiles=on,1 CPU) Scanning Creating archive ....zip System error: E_INVALIDARG My hints for you: - p7zip parameter to encrypt files list is not valid for zip files; - compression parameters need to be reset after every file format change. Workaround: - compress as .7z with password and WITHOUT files list encryption, then compress as .zip with password. ** Affects: file-roller (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Password protected zip file creation gives E_INVALIDARG p7zip error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/499299 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
