Need Help - Unzipping on remote server

New Member Joined: Apr 11, 2005 Posts: 21

Hello

I wanted to install phpnuke but I'm on dial up and it's going to take forever if I upload all the files and directories via ftp one by one. So I want to just upload the phpnuke.zip file onto the server using ftp then get it to unzip on the server.

How do I do this (tell me for shell access and tell me for no shell access).

please thank you I must thank Ravenphpscripts for great site!

Thank you for the kudos!

cPanel actually has that facility under File Manager. There is an option to Extract or Unzip, I forget which. From the shell, you can either use the TAR utility or the UNZIP utility. Just run a "tar --help" or "unzip --help" for the syntax.
