Thanks for reporting this! If you could provide an example archive that would be very helpful- or if you have a backtrace or error output with the file type?
Hi there,
we are calling dtrx from within a script, which basically passes any file from within a directory to dtrx inside a for loop.
Inside the for loop dtrx itself is called via:
dtrx -rn "$file"
I identified a couple of files that makes dtrx stuck. I copied those files into a temporary directory and executed dtrx on these files manually with the verbose switch enabled but nothing happens and dtrx gets stuck again.
I would like to share those files with you. However, they may resemble intellectual property. Is there a way that that I could share the files with you in a discrete way (i.e. a password-protected archive and I send you the password via an out-of-bound channel)?
Thanks, André
I created a zip file containing sample files that keeps dtrx stuck:
Thank you, very helpful! I should be able to make a fix for those issues.
Hi there,
just a quick question: Were you able to identify the underlying issue why some input files make dtrx stuck?
Thanks, André
Thanks, I was! There were duplicate file entries in the sample archive. Working on a patch to handle that, see #34
Awesome! Much appreciated. Your support on this project is among the best I have seen since a long time. Keep up the good work.
Hi there,
can you already anticipate when there will be a patch for the issue at hand?
Thanks!
Hi noahp,
any news on this? Patching this would improve our processes dramatically.
Best, André
We are using dtrx to uncompress various files in a given directory. We noticed however that quite often dtrx gets stuck on some file (or even file types). I could not find a pattern here but we often see this with ISO files.
Could you check whether dtrx can be improved in a way to exit clean even if a file (file type) is provided that dtrx cannot work with?
Thanks, André
