0 MikeDVB Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 From what I understand you *have* to run Thread Safety versions in Windows/IIS - but I'm not a Windows guy so I could be wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I been trying to get it work for 2 months now but it doesn't work. Are you able to run WHMCS on your windows? Please help me out if you can.. For me if I use Thread Safe version of php then some pages of WHMCS load and some crash I really gone through hell making WHMCS fully function on Windows 2008 Server with IIS7 in FastCgi mode. After a months of trying and at least over 50 new installation to make it work. . Only reason I didn't give up casue i came over from MB and didn't want to go back to it. However, after fixing IIS7 for WHMCS my MB also start working with new config. There were 2 problems. 1 PHP version and 2nd path to Ioncube_loader path. I could make part of it work yet other part would crash and back and forth. I still don't know why I was able to see some pages of WHMC but would get 500 internal error on some! I just want to share this so it can help other who use windows. Installation on Windows 1. You have to install PHP from Microsoft web installer see it at http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/install.aspx?appsxml=&appid=PHP%3bPHP%3bPHP 2. MOST Important the path for Ioncube_loader zend_extension="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PHP\ext\ioncube_loader_win_5.2.dll" Even Microsoft have no clue or anyone here from WHMCS. You HAVE TO use two "\\" instead of one "\" This was all needed which ****ing took my months! I swear I spent well over 60 hours during last 2 months trying to get it work. I hop this will help others 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hop this will help others nasnetwork, I am also having problems getting ion cube to work on Windows 2008 R2 64 Bit. I have re-installed PHP as you instructed above and tried adding the exact setting you have above to the php.ini. Unfortunatly it is still not working for me. I am just testing with the ioncube-encoded-file.php before even installing WHMCS. Can you add the zend_extension anywhere in the ini? I just put it at the bottom of the ini file. Any advice/help would be appreciated! Thanks, Scott 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 jesscoburn Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 nasnetwork, YOU ROCK! I was having the same problem as you guys. I had loaded VC9 NTS binaries for ioncube and as soon as I switched to VC6 it worked!! PHP would crash if you tried to run php index.php or even php-cgi index.php. Turns out it was the version of the ioncube dll I was using too. I really appreciate you guys posting this on here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
