I have a same issue with PHP7.0 on ubuntu 15.10 but I dont have symlinks.

In OVERWRITE mode I get error code 1. But using mode CREATE zip file is successful created.

hm, it supports symlink smoothly. Let me test again.

After some more investigation along with an colleague I've found the source of 
the 
issue: I was trying to create the archive inside an directory which is symlinked 
to another directory. After adding realpath() to the archivename, the file could 
be successfully opened and stored.

I'm not sure if the error message was helpful at all and could be changed in the 
future.

Here is a little self contained script producing the same error:

$zip = new ZipArchive();

$archiveName = 'testtest.zip';
$error = $zip->open($archiveName, ZipArchive::OVERWRITE);
echo $error . PHP_EOL; // outputs '1'

$zip->addFromString('text.txt', 'Lorem Ipsum');

$zip->close();
