    An error was detected while trying to invoke the method java.util.zip.ZipFile.getEntry(java.lang.String) of an object loaded from local variable 'zipFile'

Reproducing the Issue

  • Login to Learning Administration ->Content ->Import Content
  • Browse and select the zip file containing the content and click next
  • Add valid location and domain and attempt to import the content zip file.

Cause

  • The zip file actually contains no content files and is empty.
  • The content is not valid and cannot be read by the LMS.
  • The content zip filename contains a space (ex. "MyTestContentZip File.zip")
  • The content folder was zipped instead of the content files - please see screenshot below for reference.

Resolution

The content may have to be republished if the error persists after performing the steps below:

  • Make sure there are no space(s) in the content zip filename.
  • Use different zip applications to zip the content files. We recommend to use Windows built-in zip application.
  • Zip the content files (not the content folder), that way you should see the content files as soon as you open the content zip file - see screenshot below for reference:
