Unzip A File

[The Little Guy]

For some reason, this isn't unzipping

 

the value of $location when It gets to this point is:

/home/brend123/hostbox.us/subdomains/test/test.zip

 

Is there an extra step I need to do, or is there something wrong?

(I have had it working before on a different project in the past)

 

Code:

if($_POST['unzip']==1){
$location = '/home/brend123/hostbox.us/subdomains/'.$subName.'/'.$_GET['dr'].'/'.$filename;
$location = str_replace('//','/',$location);
exec("unzip '$location'",$arr);
unlink($location);
}

Is unzip installed?

[The Little Guy]

it should be, because I am on the same server that I unzipped other files before.

So what does the $arr array say?

 

You really should be using the full path to unzip too, it may not be in your path. eg;

 

exec("/usr/bin/unzip '$location'",$arr);

$arr says:

 

Array ( [0] => Archive: /home/brend123/hostbox.us/subdomains/test/test.zip )

SSH output:

 

/usr/bin/unzip /home/brend123/hostbox.us/subdomains/test/test.zip
