Comment 8 for bug 1971688

Hi Owen,

Do you have clear steps to reproduce the issue?

php8.1-zip does depend on libzip4 and that should be installed once you install php-zip.

trying to reproduce the issue, I did the following steps:

$ lxc launch ubuntu-daily:jammy php-j
$ lxc exec php-j bash
# apt update
# apt install -y php8.1
# php -m | grep zip

No zip module available here.

# apt install -y php-zip
# php -m | grep zip
zip

Now the module is available.

Then I ran the first example in

https://www.php.net/manual/en/zip.examples.php

(Example #1 Create a Zip archive)

# php test.php
PHP Warning: Undefined variable $thisdir in /root/test.php on line 12
PHP Warning: ZipArchive::addFile(): No such file or directory in /root/test.php on line 12
numfiles: 2
status:0

# apt install -y unzip
# unzip -l test112.zip
Archive: test112.zip

Do you happen to have multiple versions of php installed locally?

What do you get for
$ namei $(which php)
?

Since there is not enough information in your report to begin triage or to
differentiate between a local configuration problem and a bug in Ubuntu, I
am marking this bug as "Incomplete". We would be grateful if you would:
provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you
believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your
system, and then change the bug status back to "New".
