java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid entry size error -- help required
843802Jan 27 2006 — edited Jun 25 2009Hi all
I am sure this error would have been posted many number of times, but I would really appreciate if someone could help me with my problem. I am working on reading data from a .zip file, which in it has ~5GB data. All I am performing is a read operation through the piece of code specified below. This code worked well for .zip files handling till ~2.5GB
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(filename);
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis);
ZipInputStream zis = new ZipInputStream(bis);
StreamTokenizer tok = new StreamTokenizer( zis );
ZipEntry entry;
while((entry = zis.getNextEntry()) != null)
{
\\read from the zip file through the streamTokenizer
}
I just print what I read through the program, on the console.
But the error I get is
java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid entry size (expected 4294967295 but got 2117536490 bytes)
at java.util.zip.ZipInputStream.readEnd(Unknown Source)

at java.io.StreamTokenizer.nextToken(Unknown Source)

Could anybody give me hints as to what am I missing and where am i going wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
