Fatal error: Class 'ZipArchive' not found in
PhpZipZiparchivePhp Problem Overview
I have a problem that I install 'Archive_Zip 0.1.1' on Linux server, but when I try to run the script to create the zip file it gives the fatal error
> Fatal error: Class ZipArchive
not found in ...
where I put the code
$zip = new ZipArchive;
var_dump($zip);
$res = $zip->open($filename, ZipArchive::OVERWRITE);
if ($res !== TRUE) {
echo 'Error: Unable to create zip file';
exit;
}
if (is_file($src)) {
$zip->addFile($src);
} else {
// echo "<br>" . dirname(__FILE__) . $src;//'/install1';
if (!is_dir($src)) {
$zip->close();
@unlink($filename);
echo 'Error: File not found';
exit;
}
recurse_zip($src, $zip, $path_length);
}
$zip->close();
echo "<br>file name ".$filename;
but it doesn't find the class file.
Please tell me the solution. What should I do to resolve the problem?
I also put php.ini
file to the folder where script is, but it does not work.
Php Solutions
Solution 1 - Php
For the ZipArchive
class to be present, PHP needs to have the zip extension installed.
See this page for installation instructions (both Linux and Windows).
Solution 2 - Php
On Amazon ec2 with Ubuntu + nginx + php7, I had the same issues, solved it using:
Solution 3 - Php
On ubuntu desktop, I had to do.
sudo apt-get install php5.6-zip
This installed the library but I still kept on getting the same error, so I had to restart apache using:
sudo service apache2 restart
and it worked.
Solution 4 - Php
I'm not seeing it here, so I'd like to add that on Debian/Ubuntu you may need to enable the extension after installing the relative package. So:
sudo apt-get install php-zip
sudo phpenmod zip
sudo service apache2 restart
Solution 5 - Php
First of all, The solution for remote server:
If you are using cpanel you may have zip extension installed but not activate. You need to active it. For this case you need to go to cpanel > inside software section > click on PHP version. Then find zip and check it. Now save.
You should see like the image.
Refresh page. The error should disappear.
Note: If you dont found, contact server provider. They will install for you.
Solution 6 - Php
Centos 6
Or any RHEL-based flavors
yum install php-pecl-zip
service httpd restart
Solution 7 - Php
If you have WHM available it is easier.
Log in to WHM.
Go to EasyApache 4 (or whatever version u have) under Software tab.
Under Currently Installed Packages click Customize.
Go to PHP Extensions, in search type "zip" (without quotes),
you should see 3 modules
check all of them,
click blue button few times to finish the process.
This worked for me. Thankfully I've WHM available.

You also need to compile PHP with zip support. The manual says the following:
> In order to use these functions you must compile PHP with zip support by using the --enable-zip configure option.
It's not enough to simply install the correct extensions on the server. Have a look at the installation instructions link Pekka posted earlier. My answer is just a clarification of his.

This worked
apt-get install php7.0-zip
and no need to restart php7.0-fpm
manually.

I had the same issue with CentOS and cPanel installed server. I installed zipArchive package via cPanel and didn't worked as expected. After trying with so many fixes suggested each and everywhere just the below worked for me.
First find the name for the correct package with the below command
yum search zip |grep -i php
Then use the below code.
yum install your_zip_package_name_with_php_version
In my case correct code to install zipArchive was
yum install php-pecl-zip.x86_64
I had the solution from this link. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49583881/how-can-i-inslatt-ziparchive-on-php-7-2-with-centos-7
And this installation somehow enabled that package too and it also restarted the effecting services and after the completion of the execution of the above code zipArchive issue was gone.
Solution 11 - Php
For PHP 7.x
sudo apt-get install php-zip
For PHP 5.x
sudo apt-get install php5.x-zip
// (for example sudo apt-get install php5.6-zip)
And then restart the Apache server
sudo service apache2 restart
Solution 12 - Php
For Centos 7 and PHP 7.3 on Remi
Search for the zip extension:
$ yum search php73 | grep zip
php73-php-pecl-zip.x86_64 : A ZIP archive management extension
The extension name is php73-php-pecl-zip.x86_64. To install it in server running single version of PHP, remove the prefix php73:
$ sudo yum --enablerepo=remi-php73 install php-pecl-zip #for server running single PHP7.3 version
$ #sudo yum --enablerepo=remi-php73 install php73-php-pecl-zip # for server running multiple PHP versions
Restart PHP:
$ sudo systemctl restart php-fpm
Check installed PHP extensions:
$ php -m
[PHP Modules]
apcu
bcmath
bz2
...
zip
zlib
Solution 13 - Php
PHP 5.2.0 and later
Linux systems
In order to use these functions you must compile PHP with zip support by using the --enable-zip configure option.
Windows
Windows users need to enable php_zip.dll inside of php.ini in order to use these functions.

I faced this issue on GCP while deploying wordpress in the App Engine Standard environment. This solved it :
sudo apt-get install php7.2-zip
Solution 15 - Php
For me work, first review
php -m
php -version
Later install the extension
apt-get update
apt-get install php7.2-zip
systemctl restart apache2
Solution 16 - Php
For PHP 7.4 > The ZipArchive is not longer present by default and you need to install and configure it.
I strongly suggest using a library which you can just include in your project - like https://github.com/zanysoft/laravel-zip This library is just a wrapper for the native ZipArchive
Solution 17 - Php
For CentOS based server use
yum install php-pecl-zip.x86_64
Enable it by running: echo "extension=zip.so" >> /etc/php.d/zip.ini
Solution 18 - Php
You need to check the PHP version
If php version is 5.6 then , You need to install php5.7-zip
sudo apt-get install php5.6-zip
and then
sudo service apache2 restart
Hope it helps
Solution 19 - Php
If you are running into this error while using a Docker image and that you are calling the class properly, or that the error comes from an up-to-date library, then the zip
module is probably missing.
Assuming we use docker-compose
, we can confirm it's missing by running docker-compose run php php -m
for instance and see that zip
is not listed.
To install it in your image, modify your Dockerfile
so it does the same as this example.
FROM php:7.3-apache
RUN set -eux \
&& apt-get update \
&& apt-get install -y libzip-dev zlib1g-dev \
&& docker-php-ext-install zip
Then rebuild the image with docker-compose build php
and you are good to go.

I had the same issue and it had solved using two command lines:
sudo apt install php-zip
then reboot your web server, for Apache
sudo service apache2 restart
Solution 21 - Php
Try to write \ZIPARCHIVE
instead of ZIPARCHIVE
.
Solution 22 - Php
namespace
If you get this problem after adding namespace
you can use the global
namespace (backslash \ ):
$zip = new \ZipArchive;

Solution 24 - Php
-
You should
require
your file withZipArchive
file.require 'path/to/file/ZipArchive.php';
-
Or use
__autoload
method of class. In PHP 5 it is a greate method __autoload().function __autoload($class_name) { require_once $class_name . '.php'; }
$obj = new MyClass1(); // creating an object without require. http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.autoload.php
