Topic: Zend install help! Willing to pay for step by step!

[Todd]

Has anyone installed Zend on sme. I am looking for a how to step by step. It looks a little tricky. I am willing to pay for a how to. As long as it works of course. It seems a lot of new php stuff is now comming to me with needed Zend support. Net the programmer will want me to poo a gold brick>>>>> And I am sure some one may have a step by step for that too. I'll let you know if I need that one later!

Hi Todd,

please give more specific information about your hardware, software (OS and version) and mdifications or hacks, so people have a better idea on what is going on.

You could try Turck-mmcache - it has the advantage of being free - http://turck-mmcache.sourceforge.net/index_old.html#bench

What is installed is only a load of sme 6.0.1 and the greg swallow update script for sme from here http://no.longer.valid/phpwiki/index.php?pagename=Latest%20version%20of%20update%20scripts with php 4.3.10 from here http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=25275.0  I found Zend for free at http://www.zend.com/store/free_download.php?pid=13
I think this is what the programer is asking for. His php programs will not show up when you try to view them on a web page with out it. From what I can gather he incryps his php and this is what reads it? If some can help me out with a step by step I can make a pay pal donation to who ever they like. I realy need this and this form is always a great help! I would not be using Linux as a server with out this form. But using .gz files and .tar files are very new to me and some times I need a little help! Everyone here, always helps out when they can.

Sounds like he wants this: http://www.zend.com/store/products/zend-encoder.php

I sent a e-mail to him and I am waiting for a reply. I hope it is not the 1000.00 dollar one or it my be cheaper to get a new programer. I will post back in a hr or so. Thanks for helping and hope you ca stay tuned.

[Todd]

he just keeps telling me it is easer to host with his friend than have me install the Zend program he needs. He has still not told me which on he needs. I feel a issue comming on with this guy.......

[Todd]

this is what is needed to instal!
http://www.zend.com/store/products/zend-optimizer.php. Does anyone think they can help. I have tried it a few times now and have php messed up. Ihave a clean install waiting now. Thanks everyone.

[Todd]

http://www.zend.com/store/products/zend-optimizer.php But they do not have a rpm. I am unsure of how to load it to my server and use .gz files.

[Todd]

The following configuration changes have been made:                    
The php.ini file has been relocated from /etc to /usr/local/Zend/etc.
A symbolic link for the php.ini file has been created in /etc
The original php.ini was backed up to /etc/php.ini-zend_optimizer.bak

Where do I put my php files now. I do not feel this was right? Anyone know? If all goes well I will try and post a how to file but I think it is still not working.

Hi Todd

I've  recently installed ZEND optimizer on SME 6.0.1 and it was as straight forward as it can get.

Just extract the downloaded file to your SME server (I put mine in my RPMS folder) and from the command line cd to the extracted ZendOptimizer folder and type "sh install.sh". This will start the install script and you just have to answer a couple of questions and follow the bouncing ball. Takes about 2 minutes.

You should not have to do anything other than that to have the ZEND optimizer installed.
You will however, need to add some code to your /etc/php.ini file to be able to see the effects of the install when accessing your web pages.

You will have to copy the very bottom section [ZEND] and the 5 lines of code of the php.ini file in the /usr/local/ZEND/etc folder and paste it into the bottom section of your /etc/php.ini file. Then do a "service apache restart". Now go to your browser and you should be able to see your index.php page.

One other note is that if you still cannot see the page and it still comes up blank then you may also need the "mcrypt" php module which takes care of the decrypting aspect of encrypted php pages. This was available from a previous post on this forum. Just search for "mcrypt" if you find that this is also a requirement.

Sorry it should read "service httpd restart" not "service apache restart".

Sir,
 Do you think you can give me a step by step? I have been working on this for 7 to 8 hrs now and feel the brain burn. I am very new to Linux and ove it. Just very new to it. should i make a dir. to put the file in. The file is on my windows box in some .gz thing and I have followed the directions that came with it but no luck. Please help! You seem like you can help.

69.226.95.232 I did the install but nothing. I do not think I did it right. How and where do I past the code and where do I get it? uuuuhhhhhh. handicaped linux user here. Now I wish I never learned microsofty. Then my brain would work normal.
Thanks

What lins and how do I add them! I think these are all issues you had by looking at your postings. Do you have a step by step? From how to get the file to the server to install! There my be others with the same issue as us!
