I have a 7zip archive and I would like to extract certain files from with it. Is there a way to do this without un-compressing the entire archive? I know these files exist in there because I am using the "7za l" command to view the files contained in the archive.

If first argument is a directory and second argument is a file, user is prompted to choose whether to archive content of directory to file or extract archive from file to directory.
I can't do this with File Roller or 7zip, as they aren't executable in Windows. I'd like to model the archive after the link.URL...

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been looking for a solution to middle or right click dragging an archive to extract it to another folder without any success. It appears this question seems to be asked many times without a single response from anyone.

The fact that right click on archive is also missing a simple 'Extract to...' compounds the problem. [URL]

I have a .tar archive of music that I would like to extract specific files / folders from. I've been looking at man tar but I don't seem to be able to find any information related to my quest, although someone will likely point out that it's right there in front of my nose
Anyhow, the file is called music_archive.tar and I would like to extract the folder /music/P/Pink Floyd/The Wall/. Anyone know how to do this
I'd like to ask about archive mounter feature, can I mount zip file with read write mode? can gvfsd-archive do that?, or I must use fuse-zip to mount it? If I must use fuse-zip, how I wrap it so I can use it via nautilus or via gvfs-fuse-daemon
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe command tar -xvf wpa_tables.tar gives this error
tar: ./xai-0/334Regency: Cannot open: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
Obviously the backslash is giving tar some problem, but I've been all over the docs and can't figure out how to either make it skip this file or interpret the character literally. Here's my command history to show some of the options I've tried which don't work.
tar --no-wildcards -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --exclude ./xai-0/\334Regency -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --exclude "./xai-0/\334Regency" -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --ignore-command-error -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --ignore-failed-read -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --transform 's/\/slash/g' -xvf wpa_tables.tar ./xai-0/\334Regency
I'm totally out of ideas at this point and would welcome some input from more experienced members.

How can I use 7zip/7zip CLI on an Ubuntu livecd?I would like to have the extra functions of the 7zip CLI since there are barely any options in the default Ubuntu archive manager. Some options I would like to have include setting the compression level.Would one solution be to run 7zip from an external drive?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a self extracting file for Windows from Ubuntu 10.04 using 7zip.
I tried these commands:
7zr -sfx7z.sfx a output.exe *.txt
7zr -sfx/usr/local/etc/7z.sfx a output.exe *.txt
Both show this error:
Error: can't find specified sfx module
System error: E_FAIL
I have all the .sfx modules on /home/username/.sfx/ because I use them previously with "rar" and it worked fine, but it's not working for 7zip. I also copied 7z.sfx to /usr/local/etc/ to test the second command like shown here but I get the same error.
When ever I extract a file from a .tar or whatever, it isn't detected. I notice this mainly when i'm using xampp. I copy zip up all my files on one computer, load ubuntu on another, extract the files to the web folder (htdocs) and then I get nothing. However, when I manually create the files directly on my computer as opposed to extracting them, they appear.
Is there something I need to do in order to have these files appear? Is there some sort of file system refresh? Or am I being a complete idiot?
I'm not 100% sure if this is the right spot for it, but I'm having trouble unzipping files. I've downloaded a good few fonts from dafont.com, from different authors and with different browsers and I still get errors. First I opened the .zip with Archive Manager

I do have p7zip-full installed, but it isn't a .7zip file?
I was messing with Openbox, LXDE, and Pekwm a couple days ago to see if I liked any of them, but I ended up coming back to gnome.
But it seems that, somehow, some of my preferred apps settings got wiped during this process.
The most annoying one, is I have no default application for archives (zip, tar.gz, etc). I can tell Ubuntu to "Open With..." and that works... but it doesn't stick.
How can I return this back to normal Ubuntu behavior?
UPDATE: It appears that nearly ALL my preferred application settings are gone. Pretty much everything except couple filetypes show up with the standard "file" icon and won't open unless I use "open with".
[URL]...I open the file and it shows a bunch of files and I dont know how to make it install for my login. What am I suppose to do?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using Ubuntu 10.10 and I started to have a kind of annoying problem with file-roller. I do not know what I attempted to unpack or pack form my USB HDD a couple of days ago, but when I did I got a message from the archive manager, the message was: "Could not create the archive, Archive type not supported." Well, I just shrugged, and continued doing whatever I was doing, but later I noticed that whenever I tried to open the HDD for whatever reason from "PLACES" in the main panel, I was getting the same error message over and over again.
It is not produced when I open the HDD from the Desktop link in my Desktop, that link will open the HDD with no problems. But if I try to access the HDD from "PLACES" in the main panel I will always get the same error message. Ok, what have I tried: since the archive manager window shows the "file-roller" logo in the menu button, I assumed that file roller is stuck with the previous process for which it produced an error, therefore I tried to "kill" any pending processes by several ways: Login-off, re-starting and turning the computer off.
That did not worked. Whenever I attempted to open the HDD from "PLACES" the same error "Could not create the archive, Archive type not supported." will return. Assuming that nautilus was stuck with the process I tried to kill any pending processes by using Alt+F2 and trying to kill the pending nautilus process using:
ps -e | grep nautilus
and then the command
kill {####}
That did not worked either. I was tired and uninstalled "file-roller" using the software manager, this solved the problem. But I actually use "file-roller" so I re-install the program and the problem returned. I tried to uninstall the program using synaptic manager using the "Mark for complete removal" option, uninstall, re-install and the problem was there. I uninstalled all the other recommended packages that were installed along with "file-roller" using synaptics and then just tried to install "file-roller" alone, the problem is still here.
Then I thought it was a problem related to the HDD. So I went ahead and re-formatted it using the EXT4 file system with no partitions. Re-booted and the problem is still here. Whatever process I started with "file-roller" or one of its companion pkgs is still active somewhere, I believe is "alive" in the system's HDD, because it returns after a complete uninstall/reboot/install process. I do not want to mess with "nautilus" itself, Do I need to uninstall/reinstall "nautilus-data" pkg?
System: Ubuntu 10.10, running solo in an EXT4 single partition.
Desktop: Gnome v2.32.0

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just installed Ubuntu for the second time, first time was like 2 years ago and my pc was an oddball and some stuff was just not supported properly. Anyways.. I've got the latest build of Ubuntu installed, everything is working fine, just one problem.
I have many, many, many files that are archived in multiple .rar's. Like .r01, .r02, etc... I have them all copied over to the harddrive, but cannot extract what is in them. Also, I have some of these .rar's archived in a single .rar because of windows being stupid and not letting me copy them to my external drive as the names of them were too long for windows to handle. Those .rar's will extract a couple of the .r01, etc.. files, but not all of them.
I can't seem to extract it with any archiver, and when I used unrar from the console, I get this:shai@shai-desktop:~/Desktop$ unrar c1700-adventerprisek9-mz.124-15.T8.rarunrar 0.0.1 Copyright (C) 2004 Ben Asselstine, Jeroen DekkersExtracting from /home/shai/Desktop/c1700-adventerprisek9-mz.124-15.T8.rarExtracting c1700-adventerprisek9-mz.124-15.T8.image Failed 1 FailedYou can see that it can open the archive but it can't get the file inside.
