 * Hi,
 * I’m trying to run:
    `wp scaffold _s sample-theme --theme_name="Sample Theme" --
   author="John Doe"`
 * I get the following error:
    `Error: Could not decompress your theme files ('/
   var/www/html/wp-content/temp/underscores-GE47vn.tmp') at '/var/www/html/wp-content/
   themes': Incompatible Archive.`
 * unzip is already installed.
 * What should I look for?
 * Thanks

 * Hello,
    I have followed this: `wp scaffold _s sample-theme --theme_name="demo"--
   author="Demo"`
 * Sample theme download successfully.
 * Read WP-CLI doc: [https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/scaffold/underscores/](https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/scaffold/underscores/)
 * Thanks 🙂

 * Hi [@qadir5000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/qadir5000/), I’m having the
   same issue. Did you find a solution? I’ve been using `wp scaffold _s` for a while
   and I’ve never had this problem.
 * Thanks
