    Hi,
    In WHM teak settings for
    Loader to use for internal cPanel PHP (Use oldsourceguardian for version 1.x and 2.x)

    I have one server which has 'none' selected, and another with 'sourceguardian'.
    Both running latest cPanell 11 stable.

    Can someone confirm which is the correct setting please?

    Many thanks,

    - Vince

    If you aren't running any PHP plugins to cPanel/WHM, you can safely set to none.

    Hi David,
    By PHP Plugins, do you mean:
    1. WHM -> cPanel -> Plugins -> Addon Modules like spamdconf, clamavconnector, modsecurity ...
    or
    2. WHM -> Plugins -> ConfigServer Mail Queues

    Thanks,

    - Vince

    A loader is needed if you use encoded PHP scripts. For example, a software vendor might encode his software for copy protection or faster performance. If you have not purchased any such encoded plugins in cPanel, then you do not need to use a loader. Enabling a loader if you have no such encoded plugins will also not do any harm either. That is why your two server work just fine with different settings.

    The setting you are referring to relates to the PHP implementation used by cPanel itself. There is seperate implementation of PHP (either an Apache module or CGI) that is used for serving the websites on your server. That PHP implementation can also use one or more loaders for the sake of encoded software.

    I hope this helps to clarify the issue ;)

    WHM plugins as in anything that integrates with WHM itself (such as ClamAVConnector or WHM -> Plugins -> ConfigServer Mail Queues)

    Hi David,
    So just to close this off and be absolutely clear:
    I need to select 'sourceguardian' because I do have those plugins in WHM?

    Many thanks,

    - Vince

    No, you don't. Do you have modernbill or some other software install which might be encrypted?

    Here is my list of plugins and mine is set to none. (as I mentioned earlier in the thread)

    Only if you are using a plugin that requires sourceguardian do you need to enable it. None of the plugins that come with cPanel/WHM require sourceguardian.
