How to Install ionCube Loader for alt-php in CloudLinux

⚠️ Issue

How to install the ionCube Loader for alt-php versions, since EasyApache does not provide an installation option.


🖥️ Environment

  • CloudLinux OS

  • ionCube Loader

  • alt-php


🐞 Cause

  • EasyApache manages only ea-php (the PHP versions shipped with cPanel).

  • CloudLinux alt-php is independent of EasyApache.

  • Therefore, alt-php extensions must be installed via command line.


✅ Solution

🔧 Install for a specific alt-php version

Replace XX with the PHP version (e.g., 82 for PHP 8.2):

# yum install alt-phpXX-ioncube-loader 

Example for PHP 8.2:

# yum install alt-php82-ioncube-loader 

🔧 Install for all available alt-php versions

Use a wildcard:

# yum install alt-php*-ioncube-loader
