Can I install ionCUBE decoder on a virtual host?


thanks


p.s. I expect zero replies to this thread

im pretty sure your host needs to have this installed. contact them to get it put onto the server system wide.

[directfiesta]

needs to be server based.

[Zarathustra]

yes it can be on a virtual host. its alot better than zend

ionCube Loaders is what you need
Simply create a ioncube dir in your root www and install

Find out what your server is and download the correct version here

P.S. No it is not serverside installed like Zend, nothing more needs to be done

Pretty sure we have it on a few virtuals per customer request.

[GrouchyAdmin]

No, you don't need ioncube to be installed by the admin.

One of the reasons to use ioncube is that you can encode your program in it, create a ../ioncube directory, and add the loader library for your OS, to that directory, and call it good.

[directfiesta]

seems like it can be just for virtual. unlike Zend library:

Yeah, listen to the guys above. You need the loader files. Shouldn't have to install anything on the server to get ioncube encoded scripts working.

thanks for the links

almost 2 am, I'm not going to bed until I get this script running

[chaze]

Yes for sure.

[Antonio]

ok. form my host's site: operating system Linux Slackware

on the install page:
Linux (x86)
Linux (x86-64)
Linux (ppc)

which one do I choose?

[borked]

what is your server's chip? if it's 64-bit, choose x86-64. If it's not, choose x86. It most certainly won't be a mac, so you forget ppc.

I figured that out last night but I couldn't install it, I ran some installation-helper file and it told me that I couldn't do "Run-time Loading Installation" on this server (something was disabled for security reasons) so I contacted the host to do it for me
