Corrupt zip Files on Solaris Guest

Post by wc130pilot »

I have VB 4.0.10 on Windows 7 and Solaris 10u9 as a guest. I am copying .zip files from the host DVD drive onto the Solaris guest. When I unzip them on the Solaris guest, they are corrupt.

# unzip 127974-03.zip
Archive: 127974-03.zip
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of 127974-03.zip or
127974-03.zip.zip, and cannot find 127974-03.zip.ZIP, period.

These files unzip fine on the Windows 7 host.

Has anyone else seen this? Any ideas how to fix this?
