Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Hi,
unpacking an NSIS installer file gives an unknown error
but comparing the unpacked files sees no difference.
Every other files is unpacked without complain.

unar -t -e windows-1252 foobar2000_v1.2.8.exe
foobar2000_v1.2.8.exe: NSIS
[...]
themes/Pastel Green.fth... Failed! (Unknown error)

Zipped exe file is available here:

Ok. It unpacks without errors on The Unarchiver on OS X, so it might be a 
platform-specific problem. I will look into it.

Some more info - maybe related to the error
All file dates, regardless of using -t or not are set to 'Dec 13  1901'
Only directories and Pastel\ Green.fth is set to current date/time

It seems the problem was indeed the dates: They were being parsed wrong, and 
most of them were in the far future. Pastel Green had a date in the past, and 
that's why it failed (only setting the date after extracting was failing, 
though).

Should be fixed now.
