Has anyone installed zend and ioncude on the same server?

yes, i have 2 servers (RH9 on Intel + FC2 on AMD) use both IonCube and Zend
don't forget to backup your file before editing + do this with Your Own Risk !!

1. SSH login/su as root

2. make sure ioncube is installed at your server

3. edit /scripts/installzendopt : >> pico /scripts/installzendopt

4. under " my %urls = ( " line, change to

Linux => 'http://downloads.zend.com/optimizer/2.5.10/ZendOptimizer-2.5.10a-linux-glibc21-i386.tar.gz',
Linux64 => 'http://downloads.zend.com/optimizer/2.5.10/ZendOptimizer-2.5.10a-linux-glibc23-x86_64.tar.gz',


5. save changes and install zend : >> /scripts/installzendopt

6. follow the instruction at the installation proccess

7. after installation, edit your php.ini : >> pico /usr/local/Zend/etc/php.ini

8. find the zend configuration zone

9. move your ioncube line (at my server: zend_extension=/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/etc/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_4.4.so) before zend_extension

example at my server :

[Zend]
zend_optimizer.optimization_level=15
zend_extension=/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/etc/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_4.4.so
zend_extension_manager.optimizer=/usr/local/Zend/lib/Optimizer-2.5.10
zend_extension_manager.optimizer_ts=/usr/local/Zend/lib/Optimizer_TS-2.5.10

zend_optimizer.version=2.5.10a

zend_extension=/usr/local/Zend/lib/ZendExtensionManager.so
zend_extension_ts=/usr/local/Zend/lib/ZendExtensionManager_TS.so

10. save changes and restart httpd >> /etc/init.d/httpd restart

done...

PLEASE.... don't forget backup your "php.ini" and "/scripts/installzendopt", so you can restore it again if the process above is failed.

Hope this can help

 

what if you already have Zend installed and not ionCube yet? Do you have to uninstall ZEND and then install ionCube first?

 

No you dont need reinstall zend. just install ioncube now and configure php.ini like this:

[Zend]
zend_optimizer.optimization_level=15
zend_extension=/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/etc/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_4.4.so
zend_extension_manager.optimizer=/usr/local/Zend/lib/Optimizer-2.5.10
zend_extension_manager.optimizer_ts=/usr/local/Zend/lib/Optimizer_TS-2.5.10

zend_optimizer.version=2.5.10a

zend_extension=/usr/local/Zend/lib/ZendExtensionManager.so
zend_extension_ts=/usr/local/Zend/lib/ZendExtensionManager_TS.so


I installed and Working good.
