I just found <https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60348>, where the same meaningless result was returned. It turned out to be related to symlinked directories. Can you please verify, Jeffry?

Well, I haven't worked with any symlinked directories. And I have not worked with any linked or aliased resources in a web server context or otherwise. So it would require me to get familiar with that scenario first, to test it out. (if that is what you mean by verify)

A simple verification would be to use realpath(getcwd()) instead of getcwd(). BTW: usually you should "reply to all" – the discussion might be interesting for others, too. :)

Thank you: You suggestion for verification is simple enough, I am sorry, I sometimes am distracted and neglect to reply all JK

here is the revised code using realpath(getcwd()) At the bottom is the same result; else if($_GET['newArchAlt'])

    {
     //header('Content-Type: text/plain');
     //print $_GET['newArchAlt'];
     //exit;
     require_once("php/zpArchConst.php");
     //$_constER;
     $_alt = new ZipArchive();
     $_ret = $_alt->open(realpath(getcwd()).'/'.$_GET['newArchAlt'], ZipArchive::CREATE);
     header('Content-Type: text/plain');
     print $_ret.': '.$_constER[$_ret].":  ".$_GET['newArchAlt'];
     exit;

Here is more: The code that DOES work and code that gives the same error in a synchronous post context $_retStr = array(); $_ret = ''; if($_POST) { // This works if($_POST['clsDef'] == 'false') // <<< radio button used to choose code to use

     {
      require_once("php/zpArchConst.php");
      $_alt = new ZipArchive();
      $_ret = $_alt->open(getcwd().'/'.$_POST['mkZp'], ZipArchive::CREATE);
      if($_ret !== true)
        {
         $_retStr['error'] = $_ret.": ".$_constER[$_ret];
        }
      else
        {
         $_ret = $_alt->addFromString('test.txt', 'testtesttest'  );
         if($_ret)
           {
            $_alt->close();
            $_retStr['success'] = "zip file made"; //<<<< this works
           }
         else
           {
            $_alt->close();
            $_retStr['error'] = "zip file not made: addFromString failed";
           }
        }
     }

// This does not else // $_POST['clsDef'] == 'true'

     {
      require_once("php/zip_archiver.php");
      $_arch = new _ZIP_ARCHIVER(getcwd(), 'dev_lab_current');
      $_input['name'] = $_POST['mkZp'];
      $_retStr = $_arch->run('newArch', '', $_input); //<<<< this code returns ZipArchive::CREATE err 1
     }

} Although I may have some problem with my class def code.
