UnSupported Compression method
Posted by kiranpatils on January 6, 2010
Challenge:
I was writing a piece of code which generates zip file from the files read from Database and send as an attachment mail to user. I used SharpZiLib library for that. And i completed writing my logic and mail goes fine to user’s mail box. So, far so good
. But when user tries to extract the attached zip file using 7Zip it shown following error and was working fine with winzip:
UnSupported Compression method for FILENAME.FILEXTENSION ERROR
Solution:
Then i just started going through the code and i just commented following line of cod and it worked!
//Crc32 crc = new Crc32(); //crc.Reset(); //crc.Update(buffer); //zipEntry.Crc = crc.Value;
Hope this helps you to resolve your problem and say happy zipping!
