About the data decompression

Open lixin4ever opened this issue 6 years ago • 8 comments

Hello, I try to decompress the .z files follow the instructions in README but the system always raises the error unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of tmp.zip or tmp.zip.zip, and cannot find tmp.zip.ZIP, period. Have you ever encountered this problem?

Also getting the same problem, @lixin4ever @BibhuDas123 did you get it working?

These instructions are designed for UNIX (linux, mac) systems. They work for me.

@prathik-naidu @BibhuDas123 @lixin4ever If you use Windows, have you tried with type instead of cat?

You must download the whole files and zip them together...I think...

@Nicoleqwerty no the files are already compressed - you must concatenate them together, as explained in the instructions. If you need help let me know what your operating system is.

You have to concatenate all the files, so the commands you have to run are explicitly: cat wikipedia-biography-dataset.z?? > tmp.zip unzip tmp.zip
