title: java.util.zip.zipexception : unknown compression method
body: <p>I am working with a third party API <a href="http://jortho.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://jortho.sourceforge.net/</a>
  While using the API, I always get an exception </p>
  
  <pre><code>java.util.zip.zipexception : unknown compression method
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>There are no zip files involved, I tried not using the .jar file of the API, instead using the class files directly, but it still gives me the same error.</p>
  
  <p>What possibly could be the reason? How can I start off with my debugging?
  There is a class WordIterator which uses <code>java.util.zip.InflaterInputStream</code> but I don't think the problem is with the API.</p>
  
  <p>I am stuck! What can be the possible way out?</p>
