zip module is missing in my ols php 7.4. wordpress site health recommends to enable zip module.

jobin481 I'm unable to use wp reset plugin as zip extension is not enabled. I'm getting this error. ''An error has occurred. The PHP ZipArchive Library is missing or disabled! Please contact your host to enable it before running WP Reset tools'' im using php 7.4 in centos 7 please help me @aaPanel_Jose

did you use centos 7? if yes, then seems like its litespeed issues https://www.litespeedtech.com/support/wiki/doku.php/litespeed_wiki:php:pecl-extension:lsphp74_zip dont follow the guide yet. im not sure about aapanel compatibility.

alditpra Sorry, I just read the official source of litespeed, they don’t release the rpm package of lsphp74.

no problem then, i moved to cyberpanel. thank you 😀

Zip module is missing on OLS php 7.4

I vote for adding PHP ZipArchive Library everywhere. It's too common to miss it

Same issue for me today. Zip module is not listed in php 73 or 74. Havent tried 72 yet.
Linux server 4.19.0-12-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.152-1 (2020-10-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Latest AAPanel, LNMP.

I solved my issue. HOWTO:
First i installed php7.3 in addition to 7.4
Then I removed from disabled functions: putenv, popen, exec, as they stopped the installation.
In Terminal:
apt-get install libzip-dev
pecl install zip

Then:
find /* -name zip.so
/www/server/php/73/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20180731/zip.so

Then:
Open configuration file for PHP7.3 in AAPanel or open php.ini
Add:
extension=/www/server/php/73/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20180731/zip.so
on the bottom of the file

then restart php.

Then remember to re-add to disabled functions: putenv, popen, exec

How to install ZIP extension on LSPHP 7.4 with OLS on CentOS 7?

szone

bump! @aaPanel_Jose Please help!

Finally found the solution after a lot of tries and spending a lot of time...

This is what I have done to Install ZIP Extension on LSPHP 7.4.14 on CentOS 7.9:

http://SERVER-IP:7080 (ignore non secure page warning) - OLS WEB ADMIN
Compile PHP > PHP Version > PHP 7.4.14
Click Next
See Configure Parameters * and following list will appear
--with-mysqli --with-zlib --with-gd --enable-shmop --enable-sockets --enable-sysvsem --enable-sysvshm --enable-mbstring --with-iconv --with-mcrypt --with-pdo-mysql --enable-ftp --enable-zip --with-curl --enable-soap --enable-xml --enable-json --with-openssl --enable-bcmath
1. replace --enable-zip with --with-zip
2. Hit Next
3. It will take 20 mins to compile LSPHP 7.4 with ZIP extension
4. Go to terminal and write: find /* -name zip.so
5. Found this result: /www/server/php/74/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20190902/zip.so
6. Open PHP Settings in AAPanel
7. Navigate to Configuration File and scroll down, just add this line and save it: extension=/www/server/php/74/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20190902/zip.so
8. Restart PHP with pkill lsphp in terminal and your ZIP extension will be installed!

Easy Way:

You can also download zip.so file from here: https://www43.zippyshare.com/v/pIf4a3GU/file.html and paste it in the extensions folder /www/server/php/74/lib/php/extensions/ from AAPanel File Manager or any SFTP program - Make sure to assign ROOT user to zip.so file, if you will follow this process.
Open PHP Settings in AAPanel
1. Navigate to Configuration File and scroll down, just add this line and save it: extension=/www/server/php/74/lib/php/extensions/zip.so
2. Restart PHP with pkill lsphp in terminal and your ZIP extension will be installed!
  
  Special thanks to @RogerThat

Thanks @szone, your Easy way is brilliant.

I am using OpenLiteSpeed. Of course, it uses its own lsphp. So, modified your said path to match with the lsphp requirement.

extension=/usr/local/lsws/lsphp74/lib64/php/modules/zip.so

Restart PHP and OpenLiteSpeed services.

Check the status in PHP

Hello, you can try to install the zip module, please replace 74 with your php version, please back up the relevant files before operation.
The installation command is as follows:
cd /www/server/php/74/src/ext/zip/
/www/server/php/74/bin/phpize
./configure --with-php-config=/www/server/php/74/bin/php-config
make && make install

php-7.4 Manage → At the end of the configuration file, add:
extension = zip.so

restart your php

did anyone manage to get the easy way to work? I have a VERY small vps that needs this and compiling etc. is a headache.

I tried downloading and uploading it to the directory , made sure it's assigned by root / did the config file / reset it the way they said too... but no luck

aaP_johncox48811

Hi! I have the same problem. Is there another method to download? I tried to download it to the directory but it didn't work. Thanks.

Hi, tell us are you using openlitespeed or nginx?
openlitespeed uses the lsphp directory: /usr/local/lsws/
The php used by nginx is under /www/server/php/
