mxmlc java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid block type Actionscript-3 Papervision3D Flash Develop

Question

I've been compiling my Papervision3D actionscript project using mxmlc using the following command line parameter:

mxmlc.exe -static-link-runtime-shared-libraries=true source.as

The following error is displayed:

java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid block type
at java.util.zip.InflaterInputStream.read(Unknown Source)
at java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill(Unknown Source)
at java.io.BufferedInputStream.read1(Unknown Source)
at java.io.BufferedInputStream.read(Unknown Source)
at sun.awt.image.PNGImageDecoder.produceImage(Unknown Source)
at sun.awt.image.InputStreamImageSource.doFetch(Unknown Source)
at sun.awt.image.ImageFetcher.fetchloop(Unknown Source)
at sun.awt.image.ImageFetcher.run(Unknown Source)

The software runs fine in Flash CS3 without embed commands:

[Embed(source="/Textures/Texture.png")]
private var TextureClass:Class;

etc., but I do need the assets embedded.

Building in Flash Develop gets the same error of course, and won't produce a .swf. However it still says the .swf size is/would be 25MB.

I haven't compiled many projects in mxmlc (or Flash Develop) but my last one was fine with all embedded assets showing.

HELP! Have you seen this error? How can I get rid of it?

I would offer a bounty on this one, but my score is too low. :/

Answer 1

I haven't got rid of the java error, but I found out why I was getting a white screen on the .swf!

It was a stack trace error.

I got rid of this error by adding compiler argument:

-omit-trace-statements=false

Now my .swf runs fine!

Still don't know what is causing the java ZipException, looks like a problem with one of the .png graphics files, but I can't see a problem in the .swf.

Because of the ZipException the project won't compile in Flash Develop, so I am left with using mxmlc.
