Archive Program

I'm trying to unzip a .zip file. File roller gives me a no such file or directory message. I've tried p7zip but nothing happens.

Any help will be appreciated.

It may be that you don't have the package containing zip/unzip installed. Can you open a terminal window and type unzip /path/to/myfile.zip and see if it works?

Thanks for the reply. I get the command not found message.

I don't know much about Debian - but this looks like the package which has the unzip utility: http://packages.debian.org/stable/utils/unzip

On Debian, I think you need to do "apt-get install zip unzip".
