    hi there, im trying to install ioncube on my vps.

    i kept getting the "requires ioncube loader 5.2.so" page, i edited my php.ini so that it has the ioncube extension and copied the .so file to /usr/local/lib/php/xxxxxx/ "that was the directory php.ini set"

    that changed the message so now instead of getting the requires ioncube_loader_5.2 i now get 500 internal error.

    i read this may be somthing to do with .htaccess but i dont know, can anybody post some stuff..

    i checked the log in the folder and it just says about the previous errors and not the one to do with the v5.2

    It looks like a cPanel server to me.

    If yes, here is the way to install IonCube, ZentOptimizer, PHPSuhosin on a cPanel server.

    If no, you need to copy the ioncube loader file in the PHP extension directory i.e. /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/ and the version of ioncube should be same as the PHP version installed on your server. Check the PHP version using

    and then copy the appropriate ioncube loader file in the above mentioned directory. Once you copy, you have to specify the path of ioncube loader in the php.ini file. Edit the php configuration file

    and search for "extension_dir" directive and add the following line below it:

    replace <ioncube file name> with the exact name. Save the file and restart the httpd service. That should do it.
