Total Commander

My step-by-step actions:
1. Open exisiting file
"E:\LibAll\!LibUPD\Komp\ProHard\Тестовые таблицы фотокамеры.rar"
in left panel
2. Open e:\Web\ dir on right.
3. Select files
"На примере миры Sony XR500.jpg"
and
"FAQ_ Реальное разрешение по мире ISO 12233 - Форум VIDEOMAX - Страница 1.mht"
on right
4. Press F5 or F6
5. In appearing dialog see this string
rar:"e:\LibAll\!LibUPD\Komp\ProHard\Тестовые таблицы фотокамеры.rar"
6. Don't change anything, just click OK
7. Original
"E:\LibAll\!LibUPD\Komp\ProHard\Тестовые таблицы фотокамеры.rar"
in not modified, but I get new archive file
"E:\LibAll\!LibUPD\Komp\ProHard\Тестовые.rar".

Notes:
* If I try TC 7.57a I get RAR's gui-message (but I use console version!) that there's wrong parameter (which parameter?).
* If I remove spaces in existing file name, files are packed normally.
* If I pack and than update existing 7z with same path and filename (don't remove spaces) - files are also packed normally.

For 7zip I use 7zip.wcx plugin (the newest version).
For RAR I use RAR.exe 4.20 with Wincmd.ini string: RAR=%COMMANDER_PATH%\Plugins\arc\Rar.exe -m5 -s -t
I've used this string for years without any shanges and nothing was wrong all this time before.

What's the problem?

Please try using WinRAR.EXE instead of RAR.EXE. There are many problems with RAR.EXE and non-English names.

For many reasons I can't use gui version.
So, you mean that's rar's problem?

Looks like the file name including space, so when the parameter was not transferred correctly, only the part before space was recognized as file name.

That's the reason i wrote a wrapper for rar.exe, because TC creates different filelists,
if TC not detect filename "winrar.exe" and file version higher than V2.5.0.0.

In my case the wrapper is named "winrar.exe", with fileversion string V4.20.0.0, and parse all
commands that to the real rar.exe.

Maybe you try to rename the rar.exe to winrar.exe for a test, and add "-scul" to the command line string.

Sure whit this method has some drawbacks:
- the archivename itself must be ansi, not unicode
- adding files to an existing unicode folder in the archive doesn't work, but you can add/delete/etc. selected unicode filesnames and folders to a ansi folder inside the archive
(thats because rar.exe can't handle unicode working dirs (-w) from command line )

I have, but there's no diffrece. Both of them get parameters from command-line in same way...

Edit: Just now I tried to pack my arch with gui-version -> I get error that WinRAR.exe can't open file "```````````.rar" (here I write "`", because there are unknown for me symbols and japanese/chinese hieroglyphs and I can't copy them)

Update for reproducing!

Much easier way to get a bug:
1. Create any file like "test aaa.txt"
2. Pack it with RAR to any dir
3. Rename "testaaa.rar" to "test aaa.rar" and enter inside it
4. Copy "test aaa.txt" to "test aaa 2.txt" and try to update archive with it.
5. Here's the bug:
console -> file is being packed to another archive "test.rar"
gui -> an error with non-existing archive

TC 8.01 final + RAR.exe/WinRAR.exe 4.20 final

and what about 4.20?

2petermad,
I mean adding the renamed copy of our txt-file to archive having a first one inside.
