File out.docx has zero size

[karan101292]

Hi, I am getting following error while trying to read empty docx file created using File.new("file.docx", "w") command:

error: Zip::Error (File file.docx has zero size. Did you mean to pass the create flag?)

can anybody tell what is happening?

You must provide a valid docx file to the library, an empty file is not good enough. Let me know if anything is not clear.
