I need a script that will unrar files on my server

Hello all,

Im looking for a free or cheap script that will allow me to unrar rar files on my webserver.

I know cPanel has the ability to do it with .zip files but I need it done with .rar's.

Thanks

 

This might help you if you can code a exec script in php

Thanks.

 

hey can u advice some script i am willing to buy it. I am using Linux based server.Please advice

 

I can pay $$ for this ?

 

If you still need help, hit me up.

 

Usually you need the exec permissions to unrar files but there are other ways around it if you are on a shared setup.

I personally coded a setup where the script actually logged into cpanel using curl and then went to the file manager
and then click (simulated click) the unpack function, thus making cpanel think the user did it

Let me know if you need help still.

 

Save yourself trouble and don't use .rar. Issue solved. lol

 

i'm using ssh rar line commands it's very fast and easy no need for any script just use the ssh clint
to rar something type th following
rar a fff.rar fff
to unrar somethig type the following
unrar x fff.rar

 

@shuman202 - not everyone has ssh access unfortunately. They need some sort of advanced setup, vps, dedicated, privately owned server, etc.
I am sure as you know - most hosting companies don't allow for ssh access on a shared setup.

 

yes your right i just tried before to find a script that can do the job but i didn't find i hope if someone find one share it here
