No error message when loading a corrupted epub file #24

When loading a corrupted epub file, it would be nice to have an alert message indicating the file cannot be loaded because it is corrupted

Which kind of file is corrupted? Can you send it? Normally there already is an alert message indicating that the file is corrupted.

It was an incomplete file in fact.( Unzipping it manually was unsuccessful) .

Now I have the opposite behavior :

My epub file seems to be correct ( I have unzipped it successfully )
It loads normally
But when I click on its title, I have an alert window saying the file is corrupted

The epub file is this one : http://www.ebooksgratuits.com/newsendbook.php?id=1130&format=epub

We have already identified the problem. Some .epub have are organized differently. It happened because a file is not found by the program (because it is stored elsewhere). For the moment we display this message.We try to treat all scenarios in the next version.
