Hi,

I am trying to install moodle 2.2 on a CentOS server and get this: "The Zip PHP extension is now required by Moodle, info-ZIP binaries or PclZip library are not used anymore."

Tried many ways to install the zip extension, but all failed. Anybody has an idea how to install this extension?

Thanks a lot!


Paul

Depends which CentOS version you're running. On recent versions (I use CentOS 6), just yum install php-zip.

Don't forget to restart Apache with service httpd restart afterwards. PHP won't recognise the extension is installed until you do.
