Create zip

[regoch]

I got this script for create zip.

<?php
/* creates a compressed zip file */
function create_zip($files = array(),$destination = '',$overwrite = false) {
  //if the zip file already exists and overwrite is false, return false
  if(file_exists($destination) && !$overwrite) { return false; }
  //vars
  $valid_files = array();
  //if files were passed in...
  if(is_array($files)) {
    //cycle through each file
    foreach($files as $file) {
      //make sure the file exists
      if(file_exists($file)) {
        $valid_files[] = $file;
      }
    }
  }
  //if we have good files...
  if(count($valid_files)) {
    //create the archive
    $zip = new ZipArchive();
    if($zip->open($destination,$overwrite ? ZIPARCHIVE::OVERWRITE : ZIPARCHIVE::CREATE) !== true) {
      return false;
    }
    //add the files
    foreach($valid_files as $file) {
      $zip->addFile($file,$file);
    }
    //debug
    //echo 'The zip archive contains ',$zip->numFiles,' files with a status of ',$zip->status;
    
    //close the zip -- done!
    $zip->close();
    
    //check to make sure the file exists
    return file_exists($destination);
  }
  else
  {
    return false;
  }
}
$files_to_zip = array(
  'images/black.png',
  'images/white.png'
);
//if true, good; if false, zip creation failed
$result = create_zip($files_to_zip,'my-archive.zip');
?>

 

I keep getting this error.

Fatal error: Class 'ZipArchive' not found in

 

I search google and find that i must have PHP 5.2.

I have PHP Version 5.2.16.

There is link with my php info.

 

Any idea why this happening?

(PHP 5 >= 5.2.0, PECL zip >= 1.1.0)

No idea, unless you havn't enabled it in your php.ini file

Check in your phpinfo() file and look for the zip module:

[regoch]

Can't open that link.

I download zip from

http://pecl.php.net/package/zip

I don't know how to install it?Is therea way through cpanel or copy via ftp?

Here is my ftp screenshot, if there a folder to copy it?

There's a better Zip module out there that does not require installation. PM me your email and I'll send you the Class file along with instructions.
