The problem is not that the file cannot be read. The file can be read just fine. However, if it happens not to be a ZIP archive, the Archive::ZIP package spews half a screen of errors from various parts of itself, essentially complaining about the missing signature and going downhill from there.

Then find a way to turn those warnings into a die, for eval; for example by temporarily setting `$SIG{__WARN__}`; or, if the module has a way to handle errors, use that. One such warning and it's game over.	[reply] [d/l]
