Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70311&edit=1 ID: 70311 Comment by: bergmann at berlitec dot de Reported by: bergmann at berlitec dot de Summary: ZipArchive not generating output Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: Zip Related Operating System: Mac OS X 10.10.4 PHP Version: 5.6.12 Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Alright, I figured it out. Call me a moron. I've got a couple symlinks in my project. After removing them the zip is created just fine. P.S.: Concerning zip, what changed from 5.4 to 5.6? Seems strange that it works in 5.4 but not in 5.6. P.P.S: Thanks for your time cmb Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-08-24 13:30:41] bergmann at berlitec dot de With that version the zip was created just as expected. I'll try to reinstall my other installation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-08-24 12:07:58] cmb@php.net You can set the desired bison by giving the path to the executable in the environment variable YACC. See also ./configure --help. bison 3.0.4 is supposed to work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-08-24 11:10:03] bergmann at berlitec dot de @cmd: How do I build php 5.6.12 under OS X? ./configure fails on bison check 2.3 is installed at /usr/bin and 3.0.4 is installed via homebrew Guess is could install a pre-3.0 version somewhere bot how do I tell configure that new path? --with-bison-prefix? I'm a newbie here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-08-21 15:12:56] cmb@php.net That had to be expected, because the internal zip_t has already been closed. Sorry for the noise. I found that PHP 5.6.12 with libzip 0.11.2 on Linux and Windows silently fails (the supplied test script reports bool(true) twice) to create archives, if there are insufficient permissions or the folder to write to doesn't even exist. That doesn't appear to be the problem in your case, but anyway there has to be some indication of the failure. For debugging purposes consider to modify the relevant code[1]: if (zip_close(intern)) { printf("%s\n", zip_strerror(intern)); zip_discard(intern); } [1] <https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/php-5.6.12/ext/zip/php_zip.c#L1628-L1630> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-08-21 13:18:43] bergmann at berlitec dot de @cmb: Warning: ZipArchive::getStatusString(): Invalid or uninitialized Zip object in ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
