Hi Johan,

I am just extracting the jar file by setting the heap parameters as per the attached document.

Please find the attached document.

Still not clear what you are looking. Guessing Might be you are looking to unpack. At the end of command use -unpack

[Sham_HC · Accepted solution]

what is the size of your jar file?

Seems like jar is corrupted or not fully copied. Try to download again and try it out.

Try leaving the JVM settings out:
java -jar cq-author-p4502.jar -unpack

Hi sham,

Size of CQ i have is 284 MB.

I have extracted successfully for author instance once using the same jar file, it started i was able to lo-gin to the console once.

When i tried to extract Publish it was giving this error, just to experiment i deleted author instance completely by deleting the crx-quickstart folder and tried extracting publish first i got the same error.

After that when i was trying to extract the author getting the same error
