Hello
We have a nightly snapshot replication installed since a few month now.
2 days ago I got this error for the first time, last night it went fine again, and then this night I got the error again:
Error messages:
<dir>Message: The replication agent had encountered a file compression (cabinet) library error while calling 'FCIAddFile(pszSourceFile = "D:\Fenevision\repl\unc\REPLICATION NAME\20140821010018\TableName_2#20.bcp")'.

The really wierd part is that it worked last night, so I can't really explain it.
I checked if others had this error, and the only case I could find were:
- Strange characters in the name of the file (Greek)
- CAB File more than 2 GB (my file is 400 MB)
- CAB File with more than 64k files (my CAB contains 2300 files)
I also checked the harddrive and it has 120 GB of free space.
Thanks in advante for all help you could provide
Regards
