hi
you know linux hosts do not unzip zip files but gz files. I have a zip package and it is not extracted correctly when I rename it to a gz file. what is the solution?

Huh,

You can unzip files easily.

Code: Select all

unzip zip_file.zip
Easy as that.

my problem is zipping not unzipping. the zipping feature in cpanel does not code the files properly it seems.
another problem is that the linux host is not verifying zip file types but only gz files the host support told us about it

Can you gzip it on the server?
