http://ubuntuforums.org – Hello Yesterday in WindowsXP I compressed some files with 7-zip Today in Ubuntu I can't open them. The files have .7z extension. I installed 7-zip: Code: sudo apt-get install 7-zip And than tried to open them: Code: p7zip -d filename.7z But instead i got this error while loading the archive Command line output Quote: 7-Zip [64] 9.20 Copyright (c) 1999-2010 Igor Pavlov 2010-11-18 p7zip Version 9.20 (locale=en_US.UTF-8,Utf16=on,HugeFiles=on,2 CPUs) Error: /media/USB_2/filename.7z: Can not open file as archive Errors: 1 Can not ope (Hardware)

How to extract a 7z file 40 weeks 1 day ago

I just downloaded ACID, the current highest rated GTK 2 theme on Gnome-look, for my Fuduntu box and the compressed file is a 7z one. However, in Fuduntu, there is no preinstalled tool to extract 7z files. Hence I got this message:

7z is the format that is handled by 7-zip, an open source Windows archive manager with a very high compression ratio.

[64 bit] unzipping files 40 weeks 5 days ago

Hi there,

I recently got some ROM images that are in .zip format for the M.E.S.S. and I am trying to get them to work so I can play some old school games (which I have also the ROM images for). I am trying to get the program to work. It is giving me an error when I try to uncompress the .zip files, here's the error.

How can I ensure the folder that I tar and compress is good to be archive in DVD or tape? Must I uncompress and untar the file, or there is any way to tell the integerity of the compressed file before send to archive? I have bad experience on this, which the archive compressed file cold not be opened, the error message is unexpected EOF. I guess it could be incomplete archive process.

Hi, Am having a file. I checked that file format by the following command

Code: file filename Output is

Code: filename: data So the file is data format file Am trying to view that file so i have used some commands like cat,more so on but it showing the contents like compressed form(full of Symbols).

WHM 11.34 and Web Disk 31 weeks 4 days ago

Has anyone gotten this to work properly with Win 7? I can see files and upload to web disk but I am not able to open any existing files or download anything.

When I try to open a file I get the error:

There was an error opening this document.

How would you go about backing up just some files and subdirectories of a given directory to a compressed archive so that the tree structure could then easily be recreated from that archive.

Basically, rsync, with a little bit of scripting around (to select the files and folders I need) does the job, except I don't want to just copy.

I try to implement cat>filename command in NASM in Ubuntu 11.04 using system calls. My program is compiled successfully and run successfully (seems so). But whenever I tried to fire cat filename command it shows "No such file or directory" yet I see the file residing in the directory.

Howdy,

So what I am looking to do is combine an archive and a script file.

347a.jpg is not RAR archive No files to extractI'm eager to find out what this is all about...Meanwhile, there's the Open With extension. I use it to open media files in my mplayer wrapper script, so it might well do what you want.
