I have now installed gallery 2 on a apache server and I am getting this error when I try and install the zip cart.

I can execute the zip.exe from a command prompt as listed below.

Executing: cmd /c " "c:\apachefriends\xampp\cgi-bin\Zipinfo\zip.exe"
"C:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\Gallery2\g2data\tmp\zip14.tmp.zip"
"C:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\Gallery2\modules\zipcart\ZipCartAdmin.inc"
2> "C:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\Gallery2\g2data\tmp\g2d15.tmp" "
file_exists(C:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\Gallery2\g2data\tmp\g2d15.tmp)
filesize(C:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\Gallery2\g2data\tmp\g2d15.tmp)

I am running Apache on windows 2003. It looks like cygwin is for linux only.

no, cygwin is for emulating linux on windows.
i've used the cygwin binaries on my windows xp box. i'd assume it works also for win 2003.

I am downloading them now but the entire package is huge. As soon as I get them I will try them out.

Thanks

when you start cywgin, can you zip / unzip in the cygwin shell?
(you could as well open a windows command line and try it there)

Use the zip.exe from this package. It works. I searched a while for this. I don't understand why people want you to install cygwin just to get Gallery2 module to work in Windows. I run Windows 2000 server. Hope this helps.

because i know that the zip / unzip binaries from cygwin work with G2. never tried the infozip ones and saw a lot of issues with them.

I am also unsure why you would use cygwin binaries to get zip/unzip functionality in windows? Why not just find some win32 zip/unzip binaries that work nativly? It can't be that hard? Chances are pretty good it would be as simple as renaming the "zip.exe" to "unzip.exe" and testing, since for the most part they both do the same thing but via different command line switches?

feel free to change the docs on codex, just make sure that the recommended binaries actually work with g2 and that the docs are clear enough...
