Stefan,

I tried to setBigNumberMode to tarOutputStream.BIGNUMBER_STAR [ =3D1 ].=20
However, i found that tarring completes without any exceptions, and shows t=
he tar archive size as 9GB(which is my input of 9GB content file).
But ,when i tried to unzip using winrar( windows ), I was unsuccessful in o=
pening this tar. Got the error dialog "The archive is corrupt=E2=80=9D=20
When I tried to open the tar thru windows right click menu , I found my con=
tent file size is 0 bytes. I have taken care to close all streams .=20
I have attached my code snippet with this thread.=20

Could you kindly look at my below code snippet and suggest what might be th=
e rootcause for this.=20

Regards,
Jes

> The common-compress-1.4.1 api says it supports unlimited file sizes for t=
ar and untar operations. [http://ant.apache.org/antlibs/compress/]
> Only Untar operations on a file > 8GB is fixed,
> But creating a tar on a file >8GB is not working.
