We have been using FinalBuilder for quite some time and run all our builds using FinalBuilder. When upgrading to FinalBuilder 7.0 one of our build scripts started failing on the Extract Zip file task. It fails both on our build agents and locally on the developer machines. In FinalBuilder 6.3 this build script works just fine, but in FinalBuilder 7.0 it fails.

The error during extracting the zip file is "Skipping File : [filename] - CreateError - existing file may be read only!" for every file in the archive. Nothing gets extracted and no folders get created. I tried both FinalBuilder 7.0.515 and 7.0.549. I also tried rezipping the file using the built in archiver in Windows in case the original zip file was in &nbsp;a format FinalBuilder didn't approve of. Nothing works.

The Extract Zip file task has the following settings:  
Zip File: %ProjectBuildFolder%\DotNetNuke\_AllreadyInstalled.zip  
Output Directory: %ProjectWorkingFolder%  
Relative Root Dir: [blank]  
Overwrite mode: Always  
Recreate Directories: checked  
Fail if files skipped: checked  
Retain Attributes: not checked  
All files: Selected

%ProjectBuildFolder% has value "C:\SVN\PoultryFarmer2\Mainline\trunk\WorkingDir\Build" and %ProjectWorkingFolder% has value "C:\SVN\PoultryFarmer2\Mainline\trunk\WorkingDir". These of course change depending on where the build script is run.  
  
A smaller example zip file is included with this post. I've checked to see that this file also fails, both in the original project converted from fbp6 to fbp7 and in a brand new build project with nothing but an Extract Zip file task.

This seems very much like a bug.

Hi,   
  
 We are looking into to this one. We will let you know once there is a new build available containing a fix for this.

How do we get this fix. I just purchased FB7 today because they indicated they would not support IS2011 on FB6, but unzip does not work. I get the same error mentioned above. I have version 7.0.0.515 installed.
