Hello. Have you tried uncompress command? This might help. There is also possibility that your zip file cannot be unzipped, cause zip compress files about 90 percent of it's original size. Please try unzipping on some another filesystem, where is more space. There disk full tells that your filesystem gets full when you are unzipping that file, so it means that when you are unzipping that file your filesystem gets full during unzipping and that's cause your file is fullwilling your space on that partition. Kind regards IT specialist.

Hi,

I'm new to redhat. In fact I'm not the systems administrator, but I have
a strange problem unzipping a file. I think is a problem of memory or
swap space or somethin similar, but I'm going explain the problem in detail:

Distribution:
[B]Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 3)[/B]

[B]I'm connected as root.[/B]

I have this zipped file:

-rw-r--r--   1 root root 678183271 abr  7 15:30 Master032010.zip

it contains a 2,4G file


[CODE]df -h
S.ficheros          Tamaño Usado  Disp Uso% Montado en
/dev/cciss/c0d0p6     4,0G  3,5G  282M  93% /
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1     124M   13M  105M  11% /boot
none                  4,0G     0  4,0G   0% /dev/shm
/dev/cciss/c0d0p7      56G   17G   37G  31% /opt
/dev/cciss/c0d0p3     985M   18M  917M   2% /tmp
/dev/cciss/c0d0p5     5,0G  404M  4,3G   9% /var
/dev/sda1             270G  220G   37G  86% /database
/dev/sdb1             125G   63G   56G  54% /data
/dev/sdc1             826G  138G  646G  18% /data2[/CODE]


The file is in /dev/sdc1  under /data2/elos/files/in
as you can see this partition has space enough to unzip a 2,4G file
I have also tried to do the same in the /dev/sda1 under /database but in
both cases I have the same problem:

[CODE][root at ELOS-BD in]# unzip Master032010.zip
Archive:  Master032010.zip
  inflating: SongMaster201003.txt
SongMaster201003.txt:  write error (disk full?).  Continue? (y/n/^C) y
bad CRC 9695f189  (should be 0cab6361)[/CODE]


I have typed free:

[CODE][root at ELOS-BD in]# free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          8054       8038         16          0          5       7222
-/+ buffers/cache:        809       7244
Swap:         1023         72   [/CODE]


I have unzipped the same file in my own machine (ubuntu 9.10) and in
windows and I have no problem.


Any idea?

Thanks and regards.
