  • Install ionCube Loader on CentOS 7

    Go to

    https://www.ioncube.com/loaders.php

    Download latest version of ionCube Loader

    cd /usr/local/src
    wget https://downloads.ioncube.com/loader_downloads/ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
    tar xvf ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
    cd ioncube
    

    Find out PHP version you are using with command

    php -v
    

    ioncube php version

    Here we have PHP version 5.6, now you need to find the available loaders for PHP 5.6 with command

    ls -l | grep 5.6
    

    The one we needed is ioncube_loader_lin_5.6.so

    You need to copy it to PHP extension_dir directory.

    To find location of extension_dir, run

    php -i | grep extension_dir
    

    For default php installation, it will be /usr/lib64/php/modules

    So copy it the loader with command

    cp ioncube_loader_lin_5.6.so /usr/lib64/php/modules
    

    Edit php.ini

    vi /etc/php.ini
    

    Add

    zend_extension = ioncube_loader_lin_5.6.so
    

    At this point, php -m will show ionCube loader.

    ioncube php module

    Now restart web server with

    service httpd restart
    

    ioncube
