  • Warning The optional module, imagick, is not installed, or has been disabled.
  • Warning The optional module, zip, is not installed, or has been disabled.
  • Error The required module, zlib, is not installed, or has been disabled.

I can’t install woocommerce errors above

As this thread is about, There are PHP Issues which have tinkered with the extensions you require, and will take some time to fix, as they have to get someone to go down to the datacenter and manually install the PHP addons, which is hard due to;

So Please wait and as @infortainment says, Let’s sit back and relax.

imagick has never been installed and will not be installed. And note that it says “Warning The optional module”. It’s not an error (it’s a warning) and will not prevent you from installing WooCommerce (it’s optional).

The ZIP and ZLIB modules are related. They are both part of the same underlying library, which is one of the libraries which could not be built straight away. iFastNet is working on these.

Hello

How long it may take?
I just create an account and face the issue!
Bad luck for me!!

Nobody knows how long it will take. It depends on how much luck iFastNet has with getting the PHP extension to build correctly. It would probably be in the ballpark of a couple of days to a week or two. But again, nobody knows.

As a workaround, you can switch to PHP 5.6 for now, which still has these extensions enabled. However, the unserialize() function is disabled on that PHP version.

Does this affect Softaculous App also? I have been trying to access this app from my control panel for the last 24 hours but all it says is “Something went wrong, please allow 20 minutes then retry”

Thanks for your advice

I have changed PHP version to 5.6 and then install WordPress
But admin panel or dashboard not appearing
After login with admin ID it shows just home page of new site.

This does affect Softaculous apps, but not Softaculous itself.

Softaculous is working fine for me though. If you’re still having problems with it, can you please check for other topics about the same issue or create a new one?

I forgot to note that: not every software support PHP 5.6 because it’s quite old already. I believe WordPress requires at least PHP 7.1 from the top of my head.

So will this apply to wordpress plugins installing correctly?

Thank you for letting us know. Hope it gets fixed soon.

What do you mean by that? Either a WordPress plugin requires an extension which is not available, so it won’t work, or it doesn’t require/use an extension, so all is fine.

Thank you for the update.
I found an alternative way to install new plugin.
Download, unzip and then transfer through FTP
It’s working fine.

The Softaculous app now is working for me. Thanks.

Hello Admin
Any further updates on this as to the ETA for the fix. Been sitting helplessly on this issue for the last 24 hours !!!
Also wanted to understand that if the issue on the server does get resolved then do individual account holders need to do any installations/updates/deletions in their accounts for their software to run correctly?

If there is any news, I’ll post it in this topic. If I don’t post anything is this topic, there is no news.

iFastNet will build the PHP extension and roll them out on all servers. Doing so automatically installs and enables the missing extensions on all servers and all accounts. Free hosting doesn’t provide the option to choose PHP extensions, so you can’t control when these extensions are enabled even if you wanted to.
