After installing the Loader on my xampp (www.xampp.de), entering the loader into the php.ini and restarting my apache, I receive the following error message:

eAccelerator 0.9.2a is incompatible with the ionCube PHP Loader 2.4

I have already re-installed the loader but there are no changes...!


Can anyone help me?


thx

Hi Chris

This is an mmcache/EA problem, not a Loader problem, and there's no fundamental incompatibility as such. We had a patch for mmcache that fixed mmcache, and the EA developers should be able to produce one for EA.

Btw., the latest Loaders are release 2.5, so you might want to get the latest to be up to date.

Whilst on the topic of opensource extensions in general, EA and others fall into a category that we call "untrusted" extensions. This is because they're opensource, and could be used as a potential starting point for would-be hackers trying to tinker with the PHP internals at runtime. In reality, this risk is pretty unlikely, but none the less, the Encoder has a feature whereby encoded files can be protected from running in an environment where such extensions are installed. With the pre version 5 Encoders, this protection was the default, but with release 5, the Encoder user must choose to add this protection when they encode their files. If you have scripts that report as not being able to run because an untrusted extension is installed, then it means that the script provider had the protection applied, quite possibly by default, when they encoded. In such a situation, either remove the opensource "untrusted" extension, or ask the script provider to provide scripts that permits such extensions.

Thx for this fast answer.

For the moment, awaiting a solution, I have deactivated the eacc and activated the zend.


Thx!
