    Unzip files on remote site(FTP)

    Hi,

    It is really a pain. I've google for hours and can't get an idea. Thing I want to do is - after upload a zip file to FTP site, I want that unzip in a folder. Can anybody give a solution?

     Thanks

    Sithu

    First off, this has nothing to do with #develop and probably belongs on another forum entirely.

    That said, I don't believe there's any way to execute arbitrary commands over FTP (e.g. performing an unzip operation).  If you're using SFTP and have an SSH tunnel, you could probably work out a way to do it like that since then you should (in theory) have shell access, and be able to invoke unzip, or something similar on the host.

    Using only FTP, I don't think you're going to be able to accomplish this.
