Description:
------------
ZipArchive doesn't produce the desired results on my system. I can see a temporary zipfile created but it disappears as soon as my script exits without producing the final zip.

phpinfo()
PHP Version 5.6.12
Zip 	enabled
Extension Version 	$Id: f9f12af1274212b9f22867472e4aa57eab4bb4cf $
Zip version 	1.12.5
Libzip version 	0.11.2 

I was originally executing a phing ZipTask but I made a quick test that revealed ZipArchive itself is bugged for me. Apache mod and cli both are affected.

I tested the behaviour with another 5.4.x installation on my system that ran just fine.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
        
$a = new ZipArchive;
var_dump( $a->open(__DIR__ . '/test.zip', ZIPARCHIVE::CREATE | ZIPARCHIVE::OVERWRITE) );
$a->addFromString('test.txt', 'test');
var_dump( $a->close() );

Expected result:
----------------
boolean(true)
boolean(true)

test.zip created with a single file test.txt

Actual result:
--------------
boolean(true)
boolean(true)

no zip generated, temporary zip pops up and disappears, no zip in target directory or above, no zip in the trash

AIUI, ZipArchive::close() returns TRUE even if the operation
may have failed[1]. What is the result of calling

  var_dump( $a->getStatusString () );
  
at the end of the script?

That had to be expected, because the internal zip_t has already
been closed. Sorry for the noise.

I found that PHP 5.6.12 with libzip 0.11.2 on Linux and Windows
silently fails (the supplied test script reports bool(true) twice)
to create archives, if there are insufficient permissions or the
folder to write to doesn't even exist. That doesn't appear to be
the problem in your case, but anyway there has to be some
indication of the failure.

For debugging purposes consider to modify the relevant code[1]:

    if (zip_close(intern)) {
printf("%s\n", zip_strerror(intern));
        zip_discard(intern);
    }

@cmd: How do I build php 5.6.12 under OS X? ./configure fails on bison check
2.3 is installed at /usr/bin and 3.0.4 is installed via homebrew

Guess is could install a pre-3.0 version somewhere bot how do I tell configure that new path? --with-bison-prefix? I'm a newbie here.
 [2015-08-24 12:07 UTC] cmb@php.net 
You can set the desired bison by giving the path to the executable
in the environment variable YACC. See also `./configure --help`.
bison 3.0.4 is supposed to work.

With that version the zip was created just as expected. I'll try to reinstall my other installation.
 [2015-08-24 14:11 UTC] bergmann at berlitec dot de 
Alright, I figured it out. Call me a moron.
I've got a couple symlinks in my project. After removing them the zip is created just fine.

P.S.: Concerning zip, what changed from 5.4 to 5.6? Seems strange that it works in 5.4 but not in 5.6.

P.P.S: Thanks for your time cmb

Then the issue might be related to bug #60348.

Which version of libzip do you use for your PHP 5.4? If it's
something else than 0.11.2 that might explain the changed
behavior.

Although it's related to symlinks, $a->close() should return FALSE when a zip is failed to generate.

I believe that's a bug fixed in Zip 1.13.0.
https://pecl.php.net/package-changelog.php?package=zip&release=1.13.0

Waiting PHP to include 1.13.1 :)

I guess this can be closed.
