How can I install ziparchive on php 7.4?


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.


Solution

  • 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
