PHP ZipArchive Issue

it's the first time I'm using PHP to make ZIP archives. However, I am not getting any zip files even though no error is being outputted. I did echo $zip->close and it gave 1.

Can someone help me?

/* Create zip folder */
$zip = new ZipArchive();
$zipCreate = $zip->open("newarchive.zip", ZipArchive::CREATE);

if($zipCreate !== TRUE) {
    die("Zip folder creation failed");
}

$zip->addFile("test.txt", "test.txt");
$zip->addFile("helllo.txt", "helllo.txt");
$zip->close();

Maybe try this instead:

<?php

/* Create zip folder */
$zip = new ZipArchive();
$zipCreate = $zip->open("newarchive.zip", ZipArchive::CREATE);

if($zipCreate !== TRUE) {
    die("Zip folder creation failed");
}

$directory = getcwd() . '/';

$files = array('test.txt', 'helllo.txt');

foreach($files as $file) {
    $zip->addFile($directory . $file, basename($file));
}

$zip->close();

In the first argument of the addFile() method, provide the full path of your file name, and in the second provide a directory/location of your file with in the archive and that should do the trick.
