Tried it on 000webhost account. Script gui loaded fine, ran it on 48MB archive, job done 1.4 seconds, no files. What did I do wrong?

Hello mr, i have some issue with your unzipper.php, my issue is when i use unzipper.php and i check back to my folder adn theres a missing file like my routes, resources, and the others of my laravel folder and program that i need it, its all gone or maybe didnt unzip.

worked fine but tar.gz is only creating a tar file instead of deflating the whole structure. TAR files are not recognized in combo box neither so I cant finish job with this tool. would be great if could be extended.

thank you

Hello
May I know how I can resolve that. I am running PHP version 7.0

Thanks for your guidance

It doesn't appear to overwrite existing files when extracting, nor have an option to. Would be a nice added feature to have.

Cheers

Hi Andreas, first of all thanks for your script. I used it today for unzipping a very large file (343 Mb) on a shared hosting server getting issues probably due to the low memory available for PHP processes.
The GUI gave a succees message, but not all files were unzipped (about 15k).
If my speculations aren't wrong (I'm not a real developer) I believe that if unzipping would be done in chunks probably also big files in low memory environments could be unzipped succesfully.
A similar problem was discussed and solved in this stackexchange thread:

Very good software.

I use to extract zip in 000webhost.

I create a fork and translate README to brazilian portuguese, on LEIAME.md

Thank you.

Hi,

Upon testing, please may I suggest adding a PHP working environment scope and your Git Hub Link in to the MD file.

I get a white screen on PHP 5.2, but works perfectly on 5.3 and 5.4 via standard hosting Eco systems.

If you require more info, i would be happy to help.

Ps. Thank you for the code, it has saved me hours.

Hi,
thanks for this very useful tool! I have a feature idea, but don't know, whether this is possible or not.

Sometimes I need to delete huge amounts of files which takes a lot of time via ftp (unfortunately, I don't have shell access). It would be cool to have an option "delete files after packing" so that only the archive remains, which could be deleted quickly.

how can i solve turkish character problem

Hi, I know this might be a little off-topic, but If you could build in a "gitignore" functionality in the zipper part it would make this tool stellar for deploying websites from local development to live servers. Some kind of functionality to read the .gitignore files and exclude those files/folders from the zip-file...

This is a great and very handy tool. It would be awesome if you could create a similar tool to compress folders in zip.

Hello Andreas,

I try to run the unzip.php (ftp://{mywebhost}.hu/public_html/unzipper.php) in Firefox and it breaks and displays the scripts as html, the whole portion from exactly this line: "prepareExtraction($archive, $destination); ..." until the very end of the file. Seems that the "->" causes it (in " ->prepareExtraction" ).
And at the end the unzip + zip boxes displayed. (the unbroken html part of the sourcecode).

Is it common or just happens at my settings? Why is this happening?
Thanks a lot, man! Best wishes,
Wiktor
