Ioncube version 6 for PHP 7

[jonh]

I've installed ioncube 7 and added the line to the php7 php.ini as the very first line in the file, restarted apache but keep getting this error:

PHP Fatal error: [ionCube Loader] The Loader must appear as the first entry in the php.ini file in Unknown on line 0

I've added this to the php7 ini file in MultiPHP INI Editor:
zend_extension = /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin_7.0.so

I'm not sure how to fix this.

This ioncube line must appear before any Zend configuration sections in php configs. These sections usually begin with [Zend].
Also make sure that ioncube is loaded only once. The following command should only return one result:

# grep 'zend_extension.*ioncube' /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/etc/php.ini /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/etc/php.d/*

WHERE to place it? Adding it to the php.ini via the multiphp ini editor as first line in the files doesn't work.

grep 'zend_extension.*ioncube' /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/etc/php.ini /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/etc/php.d/*
Doesn't return anything.

Also, there is no [Zend] section in the php ini for 5.6 or 7.

I used the installation wizard script. It told me which version to download and where to upload it to. I placed the .so file here as instructed: /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/usr/lib64/php/modules/, then it said add this line as very first line to the php.ini file: zend_extension = /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin_7.0.so. So I added that line in WHM multiphp ini editor for php 7 ini.

I installed PHP 7 over EA 4, add bellow line to include ioncube to PHP7 (first line of PHP.ini file) but after adding bellow line I can not restart Apache

zend_extension="/opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin_7.0.so"

I did try also with this line:
zend_extension=/opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin_7.0.so

without quotes same problem ???

Hello,

I've successfully completed the "Loader Wizard" installation process using the instructions that are displayed when first opening the "loader-wizard.php" file on an account. I believe the issue faced here relates to the highlighted red warning message when first opening the page. You can safely ignore that warning, as the step that requires you to create and edit /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/etc/php.d/00-ioncube.ini takes care of this requirement. Please revert any changes to the php.ini file and proceed with the additional steps listed by the loader wizard. One additional tip is to ensure the copied Ioncube modules in /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/usr/lib64/php/modules/ have root ownership with 0755 permissions:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1240496 Oct  7 06:27 ioncube_loader_lin_7.0.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1293680 Oct  7 06:27 ioncube_loader_lin_7.0_ts.so

Thank you.
