Ioncube Idea- /scripts/installioncube

[grabyourhosting]

I have a very cool idea. We know that we can install zend by typing in /scripts/installzendopt in SSH. How about /scripts/installioncube ? That would be very helpful.

Could you guys tell me how to install ioncube too?

Have you checked out the installation instructions at www.ioncube.com? From memory they're quite comprehensive!

from memory it's incredibly easy.
as I recall.

wget the package,
untar,
type ./install

then doublecheck php.ini to make sure the ioncube files are in the right spot.


in my case, I moved them from their default install space, because people with jailshell couldn't see them, but it was still pretty painless.

Ioncube is now a part of EasyApache. Click "Apache Update" and compile with Ioncube "checked"

You can install Ioncube using /scripts/phpextensionmgr script. Several other extensions are also available with this script and can be installed easily:

[root@cpanel ~]# /scripts/phpextensionmgr list
Available Extensions:
EAccelerator
IonCubeLoader
Zendopt
SourceGuardian
PHPSuHosin

So in order to install IonCube loaders, just run :

[root@cpanel ~]# /scripts/phpextensionmgr install IonCubeLoader

Are you using suPHP or PHP as DSO? You can verify it by running:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/rebuild_phpconf --current

If you are using suPHP, make sure that is no custom php.ini inside the account.

Are you using suPHP or PHP as DSO? You can verify it by running:

here you go :

Available handlers: dso cgi none
DEFAULT PHP: 5
PHP4 SAPI: none
PHP5 SAPI: dso
SUEXEC: enabled

Thanks

Ioncube is an extension for php, try a php -v to see what you have loaded so far, and after that you can install it using 2 ways.
1. Install manual and edit the php.ini to add the extension yourself. (this is a bit hard if you dont have the skills for it).
2. Install using the easyapache, and recompile the apache and php (when you select the version of php, you will see what options to make available with php, like zend, ioncube etc...)
If you like a "SAFE" way then select the 2 method it will work 100 % and solve your issue.
If you have other questions just ask, regards.
