    Pls see I know what I mean. Why don't you?.
    • what errors?
    • what code?

    Pls be more specific. You can update this node (include a note that you did so) to provide the code that causes the error and the error message(s).


    If you didn't program your executable by toggling in binary, it wasn't really programming!

      I received an 'format error: CRC or size mismatch after reading data descriptor' from Archive::Zip, but I just want a way to ignore it. I did eval and that didn't work.

        bluesplay106:

        Are you sure it's failing on the read? You might put the new into the eval as well. I've not used Archive::ZIP, but if I were implementing it, I'd read the table of contents when I opened the file.

    Sure, eval

      I did try eval but I received a 'format error: CRC or size mismatch after reading data descriptor' from Archive::Zip and my program still exits. Is there a way to ignore it?

        eval is the standard mechanism for ignoring errors. If eval isn't working for you, and you want help, you need to post some code
