How to resolve the missing Zip extension error in PHP
It seems like you are trying to use the PHP ZipArchive extension to create or extract ZIP archives but encountering an error message that indicates the Zip extension is missing.
Installing the PHP Zip extension is what you need to do to fix this problem. The method to install the extension depends on your server's operating system and web server software.
If you are using Linux-based operating system then you can installing the extension through the package manager. For example, on Ubuntu, you can run the following command:
sudo apt-get install php-zip
The command could vary somewhat if you're running a different Linux distribution. For further information, consult the distribution's documentation.
You can try allowing the extension in your php.ini settings file if your operating system is Windows-based. To do this, open the file in a text editor and uncomment the following line by removing the leading semicolon:
;extension=php_zip.dll
The modifications won't take effect until you save the file and restart your web server software.
After installing the Zip extension, you should have no problems using the ZipArchive class or the zip and unzip commands.
