I'm attempting to install the PHP Zip extension.
My server does not have external internet access, so I downloaded it myself from PECL: //pecl.php.net/package/zip. I chose 1.10.2, the latest "stable" release, and transferred it to my server.
I ran:
pear install zip-1.10.2.tgz
and added
extension=zip.so
to php.ini as instructed. I can see that zip.so was created and placed in the right extension_dir folder as well. I restarted apache and then checked to see if it was loaded by running:
php -m
Despite all of this, "zip" is still not in that list.
Am I missing a step or doing something wrong? I thought this should be really simple, and I'm starting to feel pretty dumb, haha.
Other probably important stuff:
CentOS Apache 2.2.3 PHP 5.2.16

This is how I installed it on my machine [ubuntu]:
php 7:
sudo apt-get install php7.0-zip
php 5:
sudo apt-get install php5-zip
Edit:
Make sure to restart your server afterwards.
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
or sudo service nginx restart
PS: If you are using centOS, please check above cweiske's
answer
But if you are using a Debian derivated OS, this solution should help you installing php zip extension.

You may have
several php.ini
files, one for CLI and one for apache. Run php --ini
to see where the CLI ini location is.

1 Step - Install a required extension
sudo apt-get install libz-dev libzip-dev -y
2 Step - Install the PHP extension
pecl install zlib zip
3 Step - Restart your Apache
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
If does not work you can check if the zip.ini is called in your phpinfo, to check if the zip.so was included.

For php 7.3 on ubuntu 16.04
sudo apt-get install php7.3-zip

The best way to install the Zip extension in php7.2 on CentOS would be as below:
Find the available extention by searching with yum command
yum search zip
This will list all the zip packages. We need to look for the php7.2 zip package
Then if your php version is 7.2 then run the command
yum install ea-php72-php-zip
This will definetly resolve your issue.
Cheers !!

On Amazon Linux 2 and PHP 7.4 I finally got PHP-ZIP to install and I hope it helps someone else - by the following [note the yum install command has extra common modules also included you may not need them all]:
sudo yum -y install //dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
sudo yum -y install //rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
sudo yum -y install yum-utils
sudo yum-config-manager --enable remi-php74
sudo yum update
sudo yum install php php-cli php-fpm php-mysqlnd php-zip php-devel php-gd php-mcrypt php-mbstring php-curl php-xml php-pear php-bcmath php-json
sudo pecl install zip
php --modules
sudo systemctl restart httpd

The PHP5 version do not support in Ubuntu 18.04+ versions, so you have to do that configure manually from the source files. If you are using php-5.3.29,
# cd /usr/local/src/php-5.3.29
# ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-mysql=MySQL_LOCATION/mysql --prefix=/usr/local/apache/php --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache/php --disable-cgi --with-zlib --with-gettext --with-gdbm --with-curl --enable-zip --with-xml --with-json --enable-shmop
# make
# make install
Restart the Apache server and check phpinfo function on the browser
Note: Please change the MySQL_Location: --with-mysql=MySQL_LOCATION/mysql

I tried changing the repository list with:
//security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security main universe //archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic main restricted universe
But none of them seem to work, but I finally found a repository that works running the following command
add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
And then updating and installing normally the package using apt-get
As you can see it's installed at last.

I was trying to install it on CentOS 7 for php 7.1. In my case yum package php-zip
was unavailable in remi repo, but I could install it using different name
yum install php-pecl-zip
So if you can't find it by query php-zip
,
try searching for php-pecl-zip
.
