How can I install ziparchive on php 7.4? [duplicate]

Question

I am running Virtuamin on centos 7, I am unable to install ziparchive on php 7.4, but when I switch to php 7.2, it works. I need php 7.4 to work because it is faster and wordpress script need 7.3+ to work effectively.

Answer 1

I am on Debian 9, which does not ship with PHP7.4, but it can be installed if you add the repository from Sury.

sudo apt install ca-certificates apt-transport-https
wget -q https://packages.sury.org/php/apt.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://packages.sury.org/php/ stretch main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list

After that, I ran this with success:

apt install php7.4-zip

Maybe you would like to take a look on this post: https://www.cloudbooklet.com/upgrade-php-version-to-php-7-4-on-ubuntu/

Basically, it tells you to:

Add PPA for PHP 7.4 Add the ondrej/php which has PHP 7.4 package and other required PHP extensions.

sudo apt install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt update

Then you can install the extension

sudo apt install php7.4-zip

Or install all the commonly used ones:

sudo apt install php7.4-common php7.4-mysql php7.4-xml php7.4-xmlrpc php7.4-curl php7.4-gd php7.4-imagick php7.4-cli php7.4-dev php7.4-imap php7.4-mbstring php7.4-opcache php7.4-soap php7.4-zip php7.4-intl -y

Answer 4

This is how I installed it on my ubuntu:-

For PHP

sudo apt-get install php7.0-zip

For Centos

You can try: yum install php-pecl-zip.x86_64

Try installing that and enabling it by running: echo "extension=zip.so" >> /etc/php.d/zip.ini

NOTE: Make sure to restart your server after install the above

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart or sudo service nginx restart

It depends on which version of PHP you have, actually. Generally, you would expect this to be all that is needed, especially since it runs: sudo apt-get install php-zip, but this didn't work for me. The solution is PHP-version dependent.

For the three major versions of PHP available right now, the last one here (which actually matches my version 8.1) worked for me:

PHP 5.6

sudo apt-get install php5.6-zip

PHP 7.0

sudo apt-get install php7.0-zip

PHP 8.0

sudo apt-get install php8.0-zip

And don't forget to restart apache after installing!

One of these should restart Apache:

systemctl restart apache2
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
sudo service apache2 graceful
