To install VIMP Light, VIMP Ultimate [Standard], VIMP Campus or VIMP Enterprise, you need the SourceGuardian PHP extension.
This article describes how to install the extension on Debian 11 (Bullseye) (64-bit) with PHP 7.4. More information about using SourceGuardian can be found here.
A wizard for installing the latest SourceGuardian loaders can be found here.
The general procedure is as follows:
First create a temporary directory "loader" under /usr/src/ and change to it:
mkdir /usr/src/loader cd /usr/src/loader
Load the package, here Linux 64-bit, directly into the new directory:
curl https://www.sourceguardian.com/loaders/download/loaders.linux-x86_64.tar.gz --output loaders.linux-x86_64.tar.gz
Now unzip the file there:
tar xzf loaders.linux-x86_64.tar.gz
Copy the file matching your PHP version in the "extension_dir" of your PHP configuration:
cp ixed.7.4.lin /usr/lib/php/20190902/
Edit the php.ini of FPM:
nano /etc/php/7.4/fpm/php.ini
And add the following directive:
extension=ixed.7.4.lin
and then save it.
Now we open the php.ini of the CLI:
nano /etc/php/7.4/cli/php.ini
And add the same directive here as well:
extension=ixed.7.4.lin
Now we restart PHP-FPM:
service php7.4-fpm restart
Then, depending on the use, we will restart NGINX:
service nginx restart
or Apache2
service apache2 restart
The extension is now active for PHP and the CLI and will be decrypted for VIMP.
