If this is the same problem we've had reported recently it's probably 
down to a bug in Zip::Archive::Member, see:

https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=61930

If you are confident to do so and have a setup where you can build perl 
modules (i.e. you use cpan) you can download the latest source from here:

http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/A/AD/ADAMK/Archive-Zip-1.30.tar.gz

Then apply the patch in the bug report above, run perl MakeFile.PL && 
make && make install, but do so at your own risk and be aware of using 
cpan in an environment not setup for it (for example RHEL out of the box).
