Inbuilt ZIP support

[aba]

There has been alot of problems regarding generation of archives (multidownload), especially under Win32. So, in the newest dev release (from 469), kP supports the inbuilt ZIP extension. (www.php.net/zip)

To get it running, you need PHP version 5.2.0 or newer and the
extension loaded:

Enable the extension (php.ini):

Code: Select all

extension=php_zip.dll


After doing so, you should have a new option in the list of 'preferred archivers' under 'Options'.

Let me know of any problems.

Hi Aba,

Tried it without success, the scripts reports archive is deleted. Could be some settings on my side?

Here is my system:

Apache HTTPD 2.2.8 + Openssl 0.9.8g
MySQL 5.0.51a
PHP 5.2.5
KP build 470
Win XP Pro SP2

It creates an archive with a totally different name that appears in the script, is it supposed to be that way?

I also removed the other archivers to be sure to have the right ZIP included from PHP. And the ZIP feature is enabled in the PHP settings. The permissions should be sufficient as well, since this is on a windows system with an admin user...

Yes, that's completely OK. However, I've noticed that PHP has starting take some liberties under Windows. It does not use the temporary directory that is specified when using tempnam(), and it instead uses the system temp directory which can differ alot.

There is an code for bypassing this, it looks like this:

Code: Select all

   if (isphp5() && function_exists('sys_get_temp_dir'))
                        {
                           $file = sys_get_temp_dir() . $_POST['file'];
                           if (file_exists($file))
                           {
                              kplay_archivedownload($file, $_POST['mime'], $filename);
                              @unlink($file);
                              $fileok = true;
                           }
                        }


Can you add some debugging here, and see if that code runs? Try also to echo what it is getting from 'sys_get_temp_dir()'.

Hi again,

I've tried to debug some, but my php knowledge is rather bad... so after playing around for some hours, i'll have to give up. Sorry... Maybe someone else could support with some debug here?

Or an option is, if you have some code you will have me to try, just post it here... and I'll put it in the script and see if it works or not...

I've rewritten the archiver, can you try with the latest build? (472). If it shoulden't work, switch the $cfg['archivemodedebug'] to true. I've added some more details there.

Perfect! It's working now, tried a number of different combinations and everyone worked... Nice! Thanks!
