Installations of VIMP Light, VIMP Community, VIMP Professional, VIMP Ultimate [Standard] and VIMP Corporate require the PHP extension SourceGuardian.

This article explains the installation of the extension for Debian 7 "Wheezy" and Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit, further information on the usage can be found here.

If you have a 32-bit system (e.g. i686), just change the wget command, that downloads the loader. You find an overview of all loaders on the SourceGuardian-website.

First create a temporary folder "loader" at /usr/src/:

mkdir /usr/src/loader
cd /usr/src/loader


Download the sourceguardian package (64-bit here) directly into the new folder:

 

wget http://www.sourceguardian.com/loaders/download/loaders.linux-x86_64.tar.gz

 

Now extract the file:

 

tar xzf loaders.linux-x86_64.tar.gz

 

Copy the file that meets your PHP version like this:

 

cp ixed.5.4.lin /usr/lib/php5/20100525/

 

"ts" in the filenames means "Thread Safety". If "Thread Safety" is enabled (usually it isn't), copy the file ixed.5.4ts.lin instead.

 

Now create the sourceguardian configuration file.

 

cd /etc/php5/mods-available/
touch sourceguardian
joe sourceguardian.ini

 

Enter the following lines into the file:

 

[sourceguardian] 
zend_extension=/usr/lib/php5/20100525/ixed.5.4.lin

 

and save it.

 

Activate the PHP extension with the command:

 

php5enmod sourceguardian

 

The command has no output for errors or success.

 

Restart Apache:

 

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
# or
apache2ctl restart
# or as Service
service apache2 restart

 

Now the extension is installed for Apache2 and CLI and VIMP will be decrypted.
