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 Ubuntu 12.04 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.5.3.lin /usr/lib/php5/20090626/
"ts" in the filenames means "Thread Safety". If "Thread Safety" is enabled (usually not), copy the file ixed.5.3ts.lin instead.
Now create the sourceguardian configuration file.
cd /etc/php5/conf.d/ touch sourceguardian.ini joe sourceguardian..ini
Write this to the file:
[sourceguardian] zend_extension=/usr/lib/php5/20090626/ixed.5.3.lin
and save it.
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.
