Hello there,

I have run a scheduler job using JABACK7 which worked fine, and created a 4.7 Gig archive backup file, and with an exit code of 0.

When I try to view the archive to verify the folder/files, using the Zip Viewer, it allows me to select the archive file, but does not show the contents, and gives no error message.

Is there anything I should be looking for?

It has worked fine previously on smaller test archive files, eg 12K, so I was wondering if it was something to do with the size of the backup file.

Any help would be appreciated.

(I have tried to use Winzip to view the file, but it has a 4 Gig limit, so I'm stuck there as well...)

regards,

Jim

The zip viewer cannot view more than a few 100 mb. It is not designed for that. I'm surprised that zip specific software like winzip does not support more than 2-4 GB.

You could try viewing it using windows explorer in XP pro.
