Question:

ZIP2 Error

Dec 19 '12 at 10:30

A client with 2 computers 1 xp, 1 vista is getting a zip error when trying to zip a folder containing a large number of image files. It is saying not enough space on Disk, he is writing to 32 GB usb drive. I am able to compress a like number of files using Win 7 no problem. Is there a maximum zip file size or could it be we need to increase some sort of temp file size parameter? Thanks....Bob Loree

Answer

Bob, set the zip.TempDir property equal to a local hard drive path that has more capacity.
