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. -----Original Message----- From: rodrigo.garcia@xxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: 4/12/2010 9:53:46 AM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Unzipping problem | write error (disk full?) 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@ELOS-BD in]# unzip Master032010.zip Archive: Master032010.zip inflating: SongMaster201003.txt SongMaster201003.txt: write error (disk full?).

Any idea? Thanks and regards. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
