If the issue persists even after installing php-zip
and restarting Apache, there are a few additional steps you can take to troubleshoot the problem:
- Verify Extension Activation: Ensure that the
php-zip
extension is activated in your PHP configuration. You can check the active PHP extensions using the following command:
php -m | grep zip
If the zip
extension is not listed, there might be an issue with the extension configuration. Ensure that the php.ini
file is correctly updated to load the zip
extension. You can check the php.ini
file location with:
php --ini
- Make sure that the
extension=zip
line is uncommented.
- Check for Other Dependencies: Sometimes, missing dependencies can cause issues. Ensure that all required libraries are installed. In this case, the
php-zip
extension relies on the system-level zlib
library. Verify that it’s installed:
sudo zypper install zlib-devel
Restart Apache after installing any additional dependencies:
sudo systemctl restart apache2
- Check WordPress Requirements: Ensure that your WordPress installation meets the minimum requirements. WordPress periodically updates its requirements, so make sure your server meets the necessary PHP and other system requirements for the WordPress version you’re using.
- PHP Version Compatibility: Ensure that the PHP version you are using is compatible with the WordPress version. Some plugins and themes may have specific PHP version requirements.
- Check for Error Logs: Review the error logs for Apache and PHP. Look for any relevant error messages that might provide more insight into the issue. The log files are usually located in
/var/log/apache2/
and /var/log/php*
.
- Permissions: Verify that the web server has the necessary permissions to read/write files in the WordPress directory. Incorrect permissions can sometimes lead to installation issues.
Always test this on a test / staging server and do a instance backup before you trying modifying this stuff. Hope this helps.

Error message says about zlib, not zip, depends on your PHP version, its some of php-zlib package

@fierevere he installed zip but it does not work.
I resolved all of the site health problems and fixed the issue with themes and plugins by installing php-zip
sudo zypper install php-zip
sudo systemctl restart apache2
… but my mistake, the user did not request help. He said:
Hope this helps someone!
