@kamtschatka

When trying to install node-7z-archive, it is trying to download the file lzma1701.7z from 7-zip (https://www.7-zip.org/a/lzma1701.7z to be precise)
See https://github.com/TheTechsTech/node-7z-archive/blob/master/installer.mjs#L64

The file is not available and shows just a 404 page and therefore the installation for linux is not successful and 7zip can not be used.

I was trying with version 1.0.7 at first and just self hosted the files that were missing by downloading them from sourceforge and after providing the files, everything worked fine again.
To make sure it is not already fixed in newer versions, I updated to 1.1.4 and tried modifying the installer.mjs file to point to my self hosted files again. The installation itself works fine, but when using 7zip in the code i get the message
Encountered an error: Error: Unknown error -214702489

The files that were missing in my various scenarios(1.0.7 or 1.1.4) were those (not all of them are required for linux only):

  • 7z1604-extra.7z
  • 7z1701.exe
  • 7z1701-extra.7z
  • lzma1701.7z

There were available at https://sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/files/7-Zip/17.01/ and https://sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/files/7-Zip/16.04/
