Zip task fails with empty directories

[kev@…]

When using the zip task with a fileset that contains empty directories the zip task fails, and no file is created. Tested using a copy task and this creates the empty directories as expected.

We need to be able to include empty directories so that the same zip file can be used for both new and existing installs.

Tested on WinXP with PHP 5.3.2.

Thanks,

Kev.

Hi mrook,

Not sure that this is a duplicate. With the issue on ticket 449 the directories are in the zip but do not have the "D" attribute set against them In our case the the zip is not created at all.

We shall try using the latest build, as suggested on 449, and let you know how we get on.

Thanks,

Kev.

Hi mrook,

Just tested with latest from svn and now get the issue as noted in ticket 449.... shows as a file instead of a directory in Windows explorer.

Will await the fix and will use dummy files in the directories for now.

Thanks,

Kev.

This is indeed not a duplicate but this particular issue was fixed in r736. For the directory attributes issue, please refer to #449 and its fix in r743.
