[Plugin: Duplicator] Package compression

Hello.

Duplicator is creating an uncompressed folder in the wp-snapshots folder- see attached logs.

I’ve requested from Host to install ZipArchive extension on the server side. If this isn’t possible- can the uncompressed folder be used/ zipped and used for backup and restore- I want to create a localhost clone of a live site.

The Server Compatibility check:

SERVER CHECKS
PHP Version: 5.2.10 [0] (5.3+ is highly recommended. 5.2.17+ is required)
Web Server: Apache [1]
Safe Mode: Off [1]
Open Base Dir: Not Enabled [1]
Compression: Not installed [-1] (ZipArchive extension required for compression)

The log file (anonymised domain-names)
