no file entry in ${url}

Error message

no file entry in ${url}

What it means

zipBinarySize() walked the central directory but every entry was either a directory (name ends with /) or reported uncompressed size 0, leaving size === 0. The zip contains no readable file entry for the binary-size probe.

Solutions

  1. Download the zip and inspect with unzip -l — if it lists the binary, the parser needs adjusting for that layout
  2. If the asset is genuinely empty or corrupt, re-publish the release asset
  3. Check the walk condition (p + 46 <= eocd) is not ending early because of extra fields
Defensive patterns

Strategy: fallback

Try / catch

try { return await zipBinarySize(url); }
catch (e) {
  if (/no file entry/.test(e.message)) {
    // verify with a real unzipper locally before declaring the asset corrupt
    return sizeFromFullZip(new Uint8Array(await (await fetch(url)).arrayBuffer()));
  }
  throw e;
}

Prevention

When it happens

Trigger: A zip whose only non-directory entries report 0 uncompressed size (malformed or partial central directory, genuinely empty artifact), or the entry walk terminating immediately because p + 46 exceeds the EOCD offset due to misalignment.

Common situations: Corrupted release asset uploads; zips produced by unusual packers whose central directory the minimal parser misreads; empty placeholder assets during publish.
