installing zend

[rampage]

how do i go about installing zend optimizer.
i already downloaded, extracted and ran the zend optimizer install.sh file, it asked me where my php.ini file is, i pointed to ALL the php.ini files found (did a "locate php.ini". Restarted the web server, and after checking the php.php(a file that shows the php info) i noticed nothing changed.

The php.ini used by the pre-built PHP binary is located at lsws/conf/php.ini, and the path to php.ini should be in the phpinfo page as well.

i selected that file during the zend install, and the script still says there is no zend engine present.

Please check lsws/logs/stderr.log and zend optimizer related directives in lsws/conf/php.ini.

and don't forget to restart lsws after installing zend (or do at least a graceful restart through the webinterface).

fixed it!
one of the zend lines in the php.ini file was missing, all i did was slip it in and it works fine now

Hello

Hi guys
I have similar issue. But I have compiled multiple PHP version with litespeed.
Zend optimizer is running with default version (5.2.17) but I cannot run it with my second verion which is 5.3.8.
I've copied the exact php.ini from 5.2.17 to 5.3.8 and these the line in my php.ini :

extension_dir = "/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613"
zend_extension="/usr/local/Zend/lib/Optimizer-3.3.9/php-5.2.x/ZendOptimizer.so"
zend_extension="/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/ioncube_loader_lin_5.3.so"
extension = "suhosin.so"
extension = "pdo.so"
extension = "pdo_sqlite.so"
extension = "sqlite.so"
extension = "pdo_mysql.so"


But Zend optimizer still does not runs.
Can you help me please?

/php-5.2.x/ZendOptimizer.so for 5.2.x should not work with php-5.3.x.
you need rebuild or copy /php-5.3.x/ZendOptimizer.so so working with php-5.3.x

Thank you

Where should I find zendoptimizer.so for php5.3.x ? Should copy it from php5.2.x ? Will it work?

it's to my surprise, too, search out this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11584109/load-zend-optimizer-for-php-5-3
"Zend Optimizer doesn't exist for PHP 5.3.

The product was renamed ZendGuard when it was released for PHP 5.3. However, ZendGuard cannot load files that were encoded for Zend Optimizer, and vice versa -- they're effectively two separate products. If you've got an application that was encoded for Zend Optimizer, you're stuck on PHP 5.2."

hope this can answer your questions perfectly.
