Hi there,

after I install the ioncube loader through runtime, I get an error that my php file cannot be loaded because of an untrusted PHP Zend engine extension installed. It then directs me to a passage explaining how to fix the problem, however I don't think that passage provides enough infomation in order for me to solve my problem.

It just states " the latest version of the ionCube Encoder (version 3.1) allows developers to protect their files with permission to run in an untrusted environment if they wish. " Where am I suppose to get the ionCube Enoder v3.1 ? It does not even provide a hyperlink of some sort.

I then do a google search and fine the ionCube Encoder can be downloaded as an evaluation, what about people who just want a loader that can allow developers files to run in an untrusted environment if they wish ? Where is that available ?

Hi,

The developer of the package needs to re-encode the PHP application to allow untrusted extensions.

Our policy is to make the default option the most secure (disallowing untrusted extensions) but actually there is not much risk in allowing untrusted extensions.

The developer of the PHP application should hopefully have no trouble making this change.

Hope this helps!

All the best.

And where are the instructions for the developer?

This is fully explained in the User Guide PDF that acompanies our products; so they just need to glance at the manual.

I'm strongly searching for a list of trusted extensions.

Is there any chance to get it?

I've written a software that uses some extensions and don't really know which are trusted, and which are not...

Hi

All of yours will be. This just relates to plugins to the php engine rather than modules, and the default with encoded files is to allow untrusted extensions. Also, with the new security features in 6.5 and techniques that we use, the previously minimal risk from untrusted extensions is eliminated and so its a non issue.
