info-zip zip command

[specv]

Hi
I use zip 2.1 (info-zip). I have a list file I want to zip (list.txt) :

/dfs/projects/pubachat/DDP/DEARJOHN/*.mwp
/dfs/projects/pubachat/DDP/MASTER/*.*
/dfs/projects/pubachat/lettre/*.*
/dfs/projects/pubachat/RFI/*.*
/dfs/projects/pubachat/supplier/*.lwp
/dfs/projects/pubachat/supplier/*.mwp
/dfs/projects/pubachat/Torolab2/*.*

I try : zip -r myZipFile . -i@list.txt
I have no error but it look like to loop, I stop command with ctrl-c.

Have an idea?

Thanks
Phil

I try to read a line in the file and zip the patern read. But, the first time nothing is read :


while read -- line
do
zip -r test.zip $1
done < /dfs/projects/pubachat/list.txt


How can I read the first lign before the do while?

Phil,

From which directory are you running the command zip -r myZipFile . -i@list.txt?

zip will only include the files in the current directory (the directory you are in when you run the aip command) and the current directory's subdirectories. Try running the command from the /dfs/projects/pubachat directory.
