How to Unzip Files Directly on the Server?

Home » Knowledge Base » F.A.Q. » General Questions and Answers » How to Unzip Files Directly on the Server?

There are three ways to extract .zip files directly on the server:

  1. The first one is by using SSH

-> Run the following command over SSH:

unzip archive.zip

  1. The second way is with a PHP script.

-> Create file unzip.php in the current directory where your zip file is and add to the file the following script:

<?
'unzip archive.zip';
?>

Run file unzip.php in a browser to execute the PHP script, which will trigger the file to be unzipped.

  1. You can extract an archive file through the File Manager by selecting the file and clicking on the Extract button.
