Morning guys,
I have been trying to find an easy to use way to zip an archive on a linux
box running PHP5. Now I've tried the zip-lib.php and others, but they
always
throw an error msg.... But that is not the question.
I am looking to use exec("zip archive.zip $directory"); $directory has
been
tried with both full path and relative path ... but that doesn't work. I
don't get an error, it just doesn't create the zip-file...
So, after a day of Google-ing and trying, I thought I might ask you for
help.
Cheers for any answers and hints.
Regards,
Chris
Read up on this page
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php
Then try this instead
<?php
exec("zip archive.zip {$directory} 2>&1", $output);
echo $output;
?>
