4 years ago I have the same problem, too. To compress a directory I'm using another script. It is fast and does not generate corrupt files.
`<?php $the_folder = 'NAME FOLDER HERE'; $zip_filename = "backup".date('Y-m-d_His').".zip"; // name of the returned file
$download_file= true; //$delete_file_after_download= true; doesnt work!!
class FlxZipArchive extends ZipArchive { / Add a Dir with Files and Subdirs to the archive;;;;; @param string $location Real Location;;;; @param string $name Name in Archive;;; @author Nicolas Heimann;;;; @access private /
public function addDir($location, $name) {
$this->addEmptyDir($name);
$this->addDirDo($location, $name);
} // EO addDir;
/** Add Files & Dirs to archive;;;; @param string $location Real Location; @param string $name Name in Archive;;;;;; @author Nicolas Heimann
* @access private **/
private function addDirDo($location, $name) {
$name .= '/';
$location .= '/';
// Read all Files in Dir
$dir = opendir ($location);
while ($file = readdir($dir))
{
if ($file == '.' || $file == '..') continue;
// Rekursiv, If dir: FlxZipArchive::addDir(), else ::File();
$do = (filetype( $location . $file) == 'dir') ? 'addDir' : 'addFile';
$this->$do($location . $file, $name . $file);
}
} // EO addDirDo();}
$za = new FlxZipArchive; $res = $za->open($zip_file_name, ZipArchive::CREATE); if($res === TRUE) { $za->addDir($the_folder, basename($the_folder)); $za->close(); } else { echo 'Could not create a zip archive';}
if ($download_file) { ob_get_clean(); header("Pragma: public"); header("Expires: 0"); header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0"); header("Cache-Control: private", false); header("Content-Type: application/zip"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=" . basename($zip_file_name) . ";" ); header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary"); header("Content-Length: " . filesize($zip_file_name)); readfile($zip_file_name); } ?>`
It is necessary to write the name of the folder
$the_folder = 'NAME FOLDER HERE';
It would be great if this code could be incorporated into PHPFM.

When I zip nested directories on Linux shared hosting with PHP 7.3., I cannot unzip them after download to Windows 10 (e.g. with 7z). The zip archives contain one extra file for every folder with the same name. These files get extracted first - to 0-byte files - after which the folders cannot be extracted because the files with the same name are in their way.
It is probably related to some basics of Linux/Windows file system representation - but, unfortunately, I have no time to dive into that. In the meantime, I'll just work around with time-consuming unzipped folder downloads via FTP - but maybe other people would know what to do about it?
Here a small example with a zipped version of the file structure:
