Zip PHP extension problem in Ubuntu (PHP7)

try this bellow process:

$ sudo pecl install zip

The below should install zip extension on your Ubuntu server

 sudo apt-get install php7.0-zip 

Verify from any route with

 dd(get_loaded_extensions());

I had tried pecl install zip, but it returns me a '"make" error', now i used the apt-get and it works, installed the extension and "laravel new Project" works.

Thank You!

when i try to install zip by "sudo apt-get install php7.0-zip " command it shows below error.

The following packages have unmet dependencies: php7.0-zip : Depends: php7.0-common (= 7.0.4-7ubuntu2.1) but 7.0.6-13+donate.sury.org~wily+1 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

@Lomas-Joshi Your problem is not with PHP7.0-Zip package. It says you have some broken dependencies. Try sudo apt-get install -f to resolve. I think you have already solved this issue since the comment is 4 months older. Though I'm sharing if someone get this issue in future.

I have something like this when i issued laravel new blog the output are down below ? how to enable this extensions sir ?

If you are running Ubuntu 14.04 and have installed PHP 5.6 from the ppa:ondrej/php PPA then you can install Zip Extension like this:

sudo apt-get install php5.6-zip

sudo apt-get install php-zip then restart apache
