"Failed to unzip the epub file" (-24) error when trying to open file

[maziac]

Hi,

this is for the iOS SDK.

I got the error above for a free "Sherlock Holmes" epub found here: https://app.box.com/s/kuxyg59zrll912b3kzif

Other ebooks work perfectly. And this epub also works if I change the epub extension to zip and open it on the my Mac.

Otherwise the SDK works perfectly. Thanks so much.

Best Regards

I've found that this is not a single problem with that web site. If you use Sigil (on Mac) and save an epub, it cannot be opened with the SDK.

See https://code.google.com/p/sigil/

Thank you very much, I will download and check.

Thanks for helping us find out such a bug. Its cause lies in the unzipping of TOC(table of contents). It belongs to the bug of EPUB SDK. We've recorded it since right now we are short of hands due to the many developments. We'll tackle it later on. Thanks again.

Hi, thanks for the info. I'm planning to submit an app to the app store in the next 2 weeks. Is there some workaround available or may I offer my help to correct this bug.

Is it maybe possible to unzip the epub and than use some other (hidden) api to use the rest of the functionality.

Or might it make sense if I unzip and then re-zip the epub before opening it with your SDK?
