[Bug 246861] Re: 7zip fails to encrypt, says "E_FAIL"

[Michael T]

7z a -t7z -mx=0 -v3g Monday-Wednesday.mpeg.7z Monday-Wednesday.mpeg

I encountered the same error message, and in my case it was caused
because there wasn't enough hard disk space for the compressed file on
the destination drive. Writing to a different drive, with sufficient
space for the compressed file, fixed the problem.

Overall, I think it would be nice if the message E_FAIL was more
descriptive.
