Most commercial PHP applications require ionCube Loader, a PHP plugin that enables a web server to run PHP files that have been encoded using ionCube Encoder.

We will install ionCube Loader for PHP 7.1 on CentOS 7 in this article. Other platform instructions may differ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prerequisites<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A CentOS 7 x64 instance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
An Apache web server properly installed. Say the web root directory is \/var\/www\/html<\/code>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
PHP version 7.1.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
A\u00a0sudo user.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

Firewall rules finely tuned. At least the HTTP 80 port should be open.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nStep 1: Download and prepare ionCube Loader packages for CentOS 7<\/h3>\n\n\n\nSince CentOS 7 is a 64-bit Linux distribution, you should download the ionCube 64-bit Linux package as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
cd\nwget https:\/\/downloads.ioncube.com\/loader_downloads\/ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz\nsudo tar -zxvf ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz -C \/usr\/lib64\/php\/modules\nsudo chown -R root:root \/usr\/lib64\/php\/modules\/ioncube\nsudo cp \/usr\/local\/ioncube\/loader-wizard.php \/var\/www\/html\nsudo systemctl restart httpd.service<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\nNow, an ionCube Loader setup script loader-wizard.php<\/code> has been copied to the web root directory \/var\/www\/html<\/code>. We will use that script to Configure and test ionCube Loader on the server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Note: This tutorial assumes your Document Root is \/var\/www\/html<\/code>. If you have your web server configured differently, you need to place loader-wizard.php<\/code> in a directory where you can access it via your web browser.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Configure ionCube Loader<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nPoint your web browser to\u00a0http:\/\/203.0.113.1\/loader-wizard.php<\/strong><\/code>\u00a0to enter the\u00a0ionCube Loader Wizard<\/code>\u00a0interface.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
In the\u00a0ionCube <\/code>Loader Wizard<\/code>\u00a0interface<\/strong>, choose the\u00a0Dedicated or VPS (server with full root ssh access)<\/code>\u00a0option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Input hosting provider name and URL as follows:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n\nName of your hosting provider\u00a0AKLWEB HOST<\/strong><\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
URL of your hosting provider\u00a0https:\/\/www.aklwebhost.com<\/strong><\/a><\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\nclick the Next<\/code> button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Create an PHP ini file to specify the location of ionCube Loader for PHP 7.1:echo ‘zend_extension = \/usr\/lib64\/php\/modules\/ioncube\/ioncube_loader_lin_7.1.so’ | sudo tee \/etc\/php.d\/00-ioncube.ini<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\nNote:<\/strong> If your version of PHP is different from PHP 7.1, you should specify the proper ionCube Loader file in above command accordingly. Use the command\u00a0php -v<\/code>\u00a0to confirm the PHP version.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nRestart Apache to load the update:sudo systemctl restart httpd.service<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Go back to the ionCube Loader Wizard<\/code> interface, and then use the link click here to test the Loader<\/code> to test your installation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If nothing goes wrong, you should see the Loader Installed Successfully<\/code> message.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
For security purposes, you should delete the IonCube loader wizard script in the web root directory once you pass the test:sudo rm \/var\/www\/html\/loader-wizard.php<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\nThat’s all. Having the ionCube Loader module properly installed, you are eligible to install any app licensed with ionCube on your server now. Enjoy it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","manualknowledgebasecat":[109,231,587],"manual_kb_tag":[48,49,615,616,644,647,651,652,653],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/3836"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/manual_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3836"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/3836\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3837,"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/3836\/revisions\/3837"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3836"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"manualknowledgebasecat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manualknowledgebasecat?post=3836"},{"taxonomy":"manual_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/support.aklwebhost.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb_tag?post=3836"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
