zip utility as part of scriptmaster

[TASC]

Hi,

I am trying to test the zip file functionality and am getting the error missing property exception (see attachment for details).

I made sure I have the latest Java Virtual Machine installed. I am not familiar with Java or Groovy. Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,

Constance

I'm guessing that it has to do with a typo - the property in the dialog says 'detination', I'm guessing you meant 'destination'

This typo is in the bundled version

Also, I cannot fathom why it won't support compressing a directory. Any ideas?

The module is for compressing single files, not directories.

There was a typo in the code for this module in our release. This has been corrected and will be fixed in the next release.

In the mean time, you can correct this typo in your own client very easily. To correct this, fix the misspelling on the line

if (destination == null || detination.length() ==

to

if (destination == null || destination.length() ==

in the Zip FIle function. This should correct your error. When no destination is set I believe that the zip is only created in the container field and not on your system. You can prevent the zip from being created in the container field by commenting out the "return d;" line.
