Laser-Game-sbw.1.mcz cannot import in Squeak 3.10

Administrator

I tried to import using Monticello
http://squeak.preeminent.org/tut2007/html/sources/Laser-Game-sbw.1.mcz
But I got a primitive failure when using Squeak 3.10
http://ftp.squeak.org/3.10/win/Squeak3.10.2-7179-win32.zip

I launch squeak in Windows XP.
Click/Open/Monticello Browser/
Select C:\...\package-cache\
Click/Open/
Select
Laser-Game-sbw.1.mcz
Primitive failed in
MultiByteFileStream>>primSetPosition:to:

Thanks in advance,
Aik-Siong Koh

The file is corrupt.

Thanks. The file was imported by the Monticello Browser for Squeak in Windows XP but not in Windows Vista.

I then fileout the Laser Game categories from the XP machine and moved the files to the Vista machine. Then I asked Squeak in Vista to filein the Laser Game *.st files. It complained of a compiler error. It seems that Vista is not seeing the file correctly. Is this a know problem for Squeak in Vista? Is it something to do with file encoding in Vista being different from XP?

Thanks,

Are you saying my updated file doesn't load properly with Monticello
under Vista?

Yes, the same mcz that works in XP does not work in Vista. Vista cannot filein the *.st files from XP fileout either.

Quoting "Steve Wessels-2 [via Squeak]" :

Why didn't you use the Monticello Browser on vista?

Since the .st file is a text file, character encoding may change line
endings, though this shouldn't happen (because it's a windows-to-windows
transfer). And dditional line feed characters shouldn't make the file
unloadable, so I guess the file is corrupt. If you compare the method
which had the compilation error with the original, you may see that the
end of the method is missing.

I used Monticello Browser in both XP and Vista to import the new clean mcz file. It loaded on XP but not in Vista.

Are the squeak versions the same on these machines? Was the size of the
file the same?

Things are working on Vista now. It seems like the Vista computer has a string of bad downloads for awhile.
