Means the PHP on your dev box has all extensions already compiled and

OK, that makes sense. However, I have had tech support enable
extensions on this same server in the past and there has been no
mention of needing to recompile.


If your still running php4, it seems like it does in fact need to be compiled in to php.

However, assuming your host is running php >=5.2.0 they can install it as a shared library via pecl:

# pecl install zip

Just did this, and manually added extension=zip.so to my php.ini on my macbook pro.

I'm running my own custom-compiled PHP (I like to build my AMP stacks from source) on this machine, but that shouldn't make a difference.
