"Error unzipping file" Problem with just forge

[yoyohayli]

EDIT: I know the title says "with just forge", but I finally got a modpack with just forge to work only to try and add other mods and have the same error pop up. I do not know how to change the title.

 

Okay, so, I've been trying to create a modpack for my own personal use, but I'm having a lot of trouble. I keep getting that "trouble unzipping file" error and I have tested all these mods together on my actual minecraft, so I know it's not because they conflict with each other.

 

Here is the link to the pack on technicpack: http://www.technicpack.net/modpack/yoyohaylis-modpack.590450

 

Now, I've searched through the forums for possible solutions and the same things seem to get repeated a lot, but I swear I'm doing everything being told to others.

 

1. I downloaded Minecraft Forge version 10.13.2.1291 for Minecraft version 1.7.10

2. I made 3 folders: mods, config, and bin

3. I put the forge file into the /bin folder and renamed it as modpack.jar, making sure there were no extra extensions on the end

4. I placed all the config files for all the mods in the config folder

5. I placed all my mods in the mods folder

6. I packaged those three folders into a file called "yoyohayli_modpack.zip"

7. I hosted that file on dropbox, making sure to follow the instructions on here: '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

 

If someone could take a look at what I have and tell me what I'm doing wrong, that would be great. I got a modpack to work with purely just forge, but as soon as I add mods, I get that error.

Your pack works fine for me. Make sure you are incrementing your version number in the pack settings when you change the modpack archive/download.

I don't really understand what that means. Is that necessary for the file to be unzipped? Because it's just going to be a private file for myself and I still can't download it.

 

Please, I've been trying for like 3 days and I can't get the unzip error to stop

UPDATE: Holy crap, batman. I fixed it just by deleting that modpack from technic altogether, making a new one, and uploading the exact same file. No idea what was wrong. Obviously, it wasn't anything I was doing.

Actually, it was precisely something you were doing... or rather, something you weren't doing. As I mentioned above, your pack settings has a Version Number. This version number MUST be incremented or changed any time you alter your modpack download. Removing the pack from the Launcher and reloading it forces an update.

Yeah, I quickly figured out how to use it. Thanks for the help!
