[SOLVED] Unzipping the multipart file - bad zipfile offset (local header sig): 4

Unzipping the multipart file - bad zipfile offset (local header sig): 4

I have a file with 13 GB, which has been split equally using martipart feature in the Winzip(Windows 7).

I uploaded the files to the Linux server and I am trying to combine the multipart file to single file. But I am running through the following error.

Files after being split,

  total 9646432
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 730000000 Apr 14 20:57 file.z01

  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 349166077 Apr 14 21:00 file.zip

Command in server,

 #zip file.zip

I am running into the error,

Archive:  file.zip
warning [file.zip]:  zipfile claims to be last disk of a multi-part archive;
attempting to process anyway, assuming all parts have been concatenated
together in order.  Expect "errors" and warnings...true multi-part support
doesn't exist yet (coming soon).
 file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4

I have tested the same for test file with 27MB ,

 #ls
test.z01  test.z02  test.z03  test.z04  test.z05  test.zip


 [tbabu@fgtd-301705-130558-app001 .tbabu]$ unzip test.zip

file #303:  bad zipfile offset (lseek):  2940928

I am able to combine the files in the test eventhough I get above message.

Why is not working with the 13Gb file??

Assistance would be much appreciated.

Solution

The cat-based solution didn't work for me, but merging the files using zip -F file.zip --out file-large.zip and then unzip file-large.zip did work.
