ZIp UNIX file

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to Zip my files by using below command-

zip Monthly_Extract_Trailer.zip Monthly_Extract_Trailer

but it is giving me error message as -

su: zip:  not found.

Why it is coming?

What OS are you using?

What shell are you using?

I'm using Unix server. And my using command ps -p $$ Im getting below result-

   PID TTY       TIME COMMAND
 23955 pts/3     0:00 sh

RUn and paste the output of the below commands

uname -a

echo $0

$ uname -a

 
HP-UX qhud5028 B.11.23 U ia64 1711109840 unlimited-user license

$ echo $0

 
-sh

By default, there is no zip on HP-UX .

Use gzip instead.

Because i have to give expanantion to my client about this. They specifically mention to send file in .zip format. :frowning:

As you said- By default HP-UX doesn't support ZIP command, is there is any utitilty that i can install in unix sever by which I can use zip command?
