Lha problems. SOLVED :)
Hi (more problems, yippy ),
Does anyone recognize the following problem: You unarchive an lha file on the peecee and it's done properly, you do it with the same lha file on the Amiga, and it has CRC errors? I'm using LHA 2.12 68020+ version (typo said 1.12 ). Nothing seems to work, no matter how I transfer the file, LHA won't unpack it properly If anyone has a solution other than using the peecee, then I'd sure like to hear it Last edited by Thorham; 18 October 2009 at 11:42. |

Did you check out several archive tools on Aminet and test them on the miggy? I must admit I do most of the unpacking with trusty 'old' winrar....

Thanks for replying, but I've just discovered that it's a problem with some program I'm using (doesn't happen with no startup-sequence) Now all I have to do is figure out which one When I find out which one, perhaps this can be of use to other people.

Try 68000 version. Some of the 68020 versions are buggy (if not all).

All 2.x versions of LhA often create corrupted archives (CRC errors when testing immediately after creation). I therefore reverted to 1.38.

Now that is something I need to try (although I use LZX for archiving). |

Believe me, don't use the 68020 version at any cost. It is worse than the 68000 version, but I'd be safe and use v1.38 as Thomas suggested.
It's one of the reasons KillerGorilla started releasing WHDLoad packs as zip. He was tired of Amiga archive formats being unreliable. |

I wouldn't know Thorham, never been lucky enough to have a Blizzard.
daxb, you may be right; from my testing on an 020, it can corrupt unexpectedly, and only on certain types of data. It doesn't always corrupt, but can without warning in a small number of cases. |
