TAR not archiving correctly?
-
For now, it looks like if I have to TAR a lot of files/folders, I’ll have to use something else. For a couple of files then I can use PA.

PA 9.25 - testing with boost files as before-
Compress either via shell extension or from within program (TAR, Store full path) still has the same problem :(Edit, doing immediate “compress to Tar.Gzip” instead of TAR does NOT show the problem :confused:
-
My test case has 304 folders and 2094 files, archiving to a TAR file (not compressing yet).
I simply archived to a Tar and it is not doing the same thing but it’s still not right. I am getting the correct file count but the files have like 0444 or 0000002 as part of the file name (at the end which is sometimes tacked onto the end of the filename sometimes replaces part of the end of the filename).
The folder structure seems ok. And the contents of the files look ok (they’re mostly text-based files). It’s just the file names that are corrupted. And it’s not all the files but just a few. And I cannot find a common link to the files.

Wasn’t sure if there has been any progress with this problem again.

Now have to wait for PA 9.5 … hopefully next month…

Just tidying up -
This is fixed in PA 9.5 (betas).
