If a file isn't rebuilt it can be caused by several things:

- you're using an old cmpro version ;)
- not matching crc32 + size
- errors in the zipfile (enable settings->zipsettings->full structure scan, enable recompress in the rebuilder and watch the warningswindow for possible errors)
- not enough free diskspace in the rebuilder destination/cmpro temp folder
- some rebuilder advanced options, like "don't rebuild if file exists in rompath" (or whatever I called it).
- something goes wrong while unzipping/zipping

- and for long filenames (usually tosec stuff), you have to be sure that it fits in MAX_PATH which is normally something about 250 characters. This includes fulldestinationpath + setname + filename. If it's too long, it won't be created. You can test it by using a small destination for example c:\


and it would be interesting if you send me the file and the datfile.
