Help using WISP and Pkunzip
I don't know if this is the right place for asking for help using WISP. If not please let me know.
I have WISP installed and working properly except I cannot seem to get pkunzip to unpack files after downloading them from GO-32.
1. I have verified that the WISP working directory (in my case d:\WISP) is in autoexec.bat 2. I have verified that the pif files are in the WISP working directory. 3. Pkunzip.exe, pkzip.exe are both in WISP working directory 4. I have checked the pif files and the working directory is blank, cmd line is pkunzip.exe
I am not sure what else to check and any help is surely appreciated.

Hi Jeff,
First make sure pkunzip/pkzip are in the particular satellite directory under WiSP. WiSP will automatically pkzip files of a certain size, this you can set. Some people have been manually zipping file using Winzip and uploading them. WiSP can't recognize the format and therefore unzip them. You have to do this manually. To see that it works, set the auto zip size, upload a file and then download it. After the pass, if you have the post process feature enabled, the message will be unzipped.

Thanks for the response, I put the files in the satellite folder. Does that mean I need a copy of the files in each satellite folder?
I can manually pkunzip the dlx files in the dlx folder. Seems this should be automatically done by procmail at the end of the pass. I manually ran Procmail on GO-32.
I took a look at the Procmail error log and it indicates the following: GO-32 7343 No files found after decompression. GO-32 7344 No files found after decompression. GO-32 7345 No files found after decompression. GO-32 7349 No files found after decompression.
I verified that the version of pkzip/pkunzip is 2.04g.
