require_once(‘pclzip.lib.php’);
$archive = new PclZip(‘archive.zip’);
$v_list = $archive->add(‘foldername’,
PCLZIP_OPT_REMOVE_PATH, ‘dev’);

The method “add” is for when your appending files to an existing zip file, the method you need to use is “create”. See if the code below works for you

// Set the directory
$dir = "A Flat";

$fileList = array();

if (is_dir($dir)){
    if ($open = opendir($dir)){
        while(false !== ($read = readdir($open))){
            if ($read != '.' && $read != '..'){
                echo $read." - File Size: ".filesize($dir."/".$read)." bytes<br />";
                $fileList[] = $read;
            }
        }
    } else {
        echo "Unable to open the directory at \\"$dir\\"";
    }
} else {
    echo "The directory ( $dir ) is not a valid path!";
} 

// Make sure the array is at least "1" value
if (sizeof($fileList) > 0){
    // Include the PCLZip class
    include_once('pclzip.lib.php');
    
    // Create a new instance of the class
    $archive = new PclZip('mp3_files.zip');
    
    // Build a list of the files
    $files = implode(', ', $fileList);
    
    // Add the files to the archive
    $v_list = $archive->create($files);
    
    // Finish up
    if ($v_list == 0){
        die("Error : ".$archive->errorInfo(true));
    } else {
        header('Location: mp3_files.zip');
    }
}

well brother can’t i pass it values through variables because i try to do give values through that don’t work

and which code u write that also giving wrong error

Error : PCLZIP_ERR_MISSING_FILE (-4) : File ‘01 - Meetha Sa Ishq.mp3’ does not exist
even file is exists

12

Thats my fault, in the while loop the appending values should be

$fileList[] = $dir."/".$read;

Now this one
Error : PCLZIP_ERR_MISSING_FILE (-4) : File ’ A Flat/02 - Dil Kashi.mp3’ does not exist
