I am new to Ubuntu and I face a very strange problem.
I use Ubuntu 16.04 via wsl 2 on Windows 10.
When I download an archive using wget e.g.,
Code:wget https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases/tag/v3.19.1/protoc-3.19.1-linux-x86_64.zip
I cannot unpack the file, because
Code:
unzip protoc-3.19.1-linux-x86_64.zip
yields
Code:
Archive: protoc-3.19.1-linux-x86_64.zip
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of protoc-3.19.1-linux-x86_64.zip or
protoc-3.19.1-linux-x86_64.zip.zip, and cannot find protoc-3.19.1-linux-x86_64.zip.ZIP, period.
Unpacking with
Code:
jar xvf protoc-3.19.1-linux-x86_64.zip
produces even less informative error
Code:
Ick! 0xa0a0a0a
I am sure that the archive is not damaged, because I can download and open it on Windows.
What else I have tried:
- Downloading the archive with curl
- Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04
- Setting wsl to the version 1
- ...
Maybe the problem is not in Ubuntu but in some Windows or wsl settings...
If some additional information needed - I will provide.
Thank you!
