 * Hello,
 * I am trying to do a backup of my site with the Duplicator plugin. But, I am getting
   a Zip Archive Enabled Fail Error. I found the following link [http://www.smallbizgeek.co.uk/wordpress-duplicator-ziparchive-failure-solution/](http://www.smallbizgeek.co.uk/wordpress-duplicator-ziparchive-failure-solution/)
   and followed the directions, but I am still getting the same error. I would greatly
   appreciate some help.
 * Thank You very much!

 * Hello Cory,
 * Thank you for your reply. Sorry for the delay. I was still building my site.
 * My site is being hosted by GoDaddy. I keep getting the same error when trying
   to run Duplicator.
 * Thank you for your help!

 * Hey Nikoneddie,
 * What did Godaddy say after you contacted them. This is something they have to
   make sure is enabled on their servers…
 * Thanks~

   them to do.
 * Thanks again!

 * Hello Cory,
 * I contacted them and it passed, but now I get the following errors. What I don’t
   understand is that everything passed as good except for the Zip Archive on my
   previous attempts.
 * Thank You!

 * I am also getting this issue on bluehost which is pretty unusual. Did something
   in this zip checker code change recently?

 * [@nikoneddie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikoneddie/) 38.7GB is going
   to be to large, especially on a budget host. You may have to use the file filters
   to get the size down.
 * [@hongpong](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hongpong/) The code for this 
   has not changed is a long time. The check is pretty simple:
 * > $dup_tests[‘PHP’][‘ZIP’] = class_exists(‘ZipArchive’) ? ‘Pass’ : ‘Fail’;

 * Struggling with this error on GoDaddy and have spoken to their support who are
   struggling to fix it… tried numerous options to fix, e.g. [http://www.smallbizgeek.co.uk/wordpress-duplicator-ziparchive-failure-solution/](http://www.smallbizgeek.co.uk/wordpress-duplicator-ziparchive-failure-solution/)
   and still no luck… Can you please advise on what GoDaddy did to get this working?
   Thanks for assisting.
