I am in middle of ionCube installation but php configuration is missing zend_extension for ionCube but not specify what is exactly
I am working on CentOs
All well Thanks:)
There were few things I have missed
Select the correct bit release
Match the Loader with your PHP version, e.g. for PHP 5.3, ioncube_loader_lin_5.3.so (extensions are inside the folder)
Add 'zend_extension = /usr/local/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_5.3.so' to php.ini
Restart the server
There are 2 parts to the solution that worked for me:
symlink the 00-ioncube.ini file into the conf.d directory from the mods-available directory. Do not simply copy the file into the conf.d as the loader-wizard suggests.
Restart the fastcgi daemon off and on as well as the apache daemon
See my blog post for more details.
I had the exact same problem with installing on Ubuntu. Ubuntu wants a soft link from /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/20-ioncube.ini to /etc/php5/mods-available/20-ioncube.ini. I tried THAT after following the directions given and apache restart failed with this error: "PHP Fatal error: [ionCube Loader] The Loader must appear as the first entry in the php.ini file in Unknown on line 0" in the error log /var/log/apache2/error.log
The solution that worked for me was to delete the soft link and to add the line from /etc/php5/mods-available/20-ioncube.ini ("zend_extension=/usr/lib/php5/20121212/ioncube_loader_lin_5.5.so") to /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
Possibly of note, I removed spaces on either side of the equals sign.
Apache restarted successfully and clicking the test link in the loader script page resulted in a success message as did subsequent script execution in my development environment dependent upon ioncube.
Actually ioncube needs its own ini files in php.d directory. Ioncube read its own file with the name of 20-ioncube.ini file.
So to do this we need to create vi /etc/php.d/20-ioncube.ini and add text: "zend_extension = /usr/lib/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin_5.3.so" in it. Now reload php-fpm and browser. Ioncube will find zend framework now.
You can try to execute my install ioncube script in my gist, install_ioncube.sh
Or manual install follow the official wizard in other script
# run-loader-wizard.sh
curl -O https://www.ioncube.com/loader-wizard/loader-wizard.tgz
tar zxvf loader-wizard.tgz
cd ./ioncube
php -S localhost:8000
# open http://localhost:8000/loader-wizard.php

I run a PHP script and get this error:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/ixed.5.2.lin' - /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/ixed.5.2.lin: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
What does that mean?
It means there is an extension=... or zend_extension=... line in one of your php configuration files (php.ini, or another close to it) that is trying to load that extension : ixed.5.2.lin
Unfortunately that file or path doesn't exist or the permissions are incorrect.
Try to search in the .ini files that are loaded by PHP (phpinfo() can indicate which ones are) - one of them should try to load that extension.
Either correct the path to the file or comment out the corresponding line.
If you're on Linux, you can find all loaded configuration files by typing this in shell:
php -r "print phpinfo();" | grep ".ini"
UPDATE:
As mentioned in comments, this can be even more accurate:
php -i | grep ini
phpStom with XAMPP
TL;DR Except from verifying that the files exist, you might need to add the drive letter to some records in your php.ini file
I suddenly started having a problem using phpStorm 7 for debugging php with xampp and xdebug. When trying to set intellij interperter to be xampps php I got a lot of the warnings like the one in the question, for example:
Unable to load dynamic library '/xampp/php/ext/php_bz2.dll'
For some reason I had to add my drive letter to the records of extension_dir and browscap in the php.ini file:
extension_dir = "\xampp\php\ext"
browscap = "\xampp\php\extras\browscap.ini"
to
extension_dir = "e:\xampp\php\ext"
browscap = "e:\xampp\php\extras\browscap.ini"
If you just want to make the error disappear, and you don't need the extension, then by all means comment the line out in php.ini. But if you actually want to fix the problem here is some additional info.
There are various causes for this based on the exact module, but there are also some general guidelines.
Open phpinfo() and look for extension_dir under the Core section. This is where your modules should be located.
For instance, /usr/lib/php/modules for Unix/Linux.
If the file does in fact exist, make sure permissions are adequate.
If the file does not exist, use the resources below to install it.

Loading .dll in Linux
I've encountered this warning message while I was trying to install a php-extension via the php.ini file;
until I figured out that you cannot load .dll extensions in Linux,
but you have to comment the extensions that you want to import ;extension= ... .dll and install it correctly via sudo apt-get install php-...
note: ... is the extension name you want to enable.
php -r "echo php_ini_loaded_file();"
Will show in CLI current ini loaded file, search there for Your extension, path to it is incorrect.
In my case, this message started to appear when I updated the php version to 7.4.
To solve it I had to look for the php.ini files found inside the php version folder (/etc/php/7.4/apache2/ && /etc/php/7.4/cli/) checking the lines where the extensions I could see that the extensions gd2 and intl were uncommented.
Note that you can also get this error if your PHP library doesn't have the "other" directory opening permission. In my particular case, I noticed this when using php -l to syntax check a script in my text editor. This meant that since my account was called "volomike", that account didn't have permission to run the libraries that the php command relied upon.
For instance, on Ubuntu 14.04, I had PHP5 installed automatically into the path /usr/lib/php5/20121212+lfs. However, because I was working in C++ in building some shared objects, I messed around with the directory permissions and screwed things up such that non-root accounts did not have the directory execute (directory open) permissions to view /usr/lib/php5/20121212+lfs. So, I typed the following command to rectify that problem:
sudo chmod o+x /usr/lib/php5/20121212+lfs.
Now when I do php -l example.php as a non-root user, it never gives me this "Unabled to load dynamic library" problem anymore.
I had the same problem on XAMPP for Windows when I try to install composer.
I did php -v and php throwing error :
Unable to load dynamic library '/xampp/php/ext/php_bz2.dll'
It took me a while until I realized that I need to setup my XAMPP. So I run setup_xampp.bat and php return to works like a charm.
I had this error on a number of modules when I had been running different versions of PHP side by side on my server. To sort this out, I needed to install the packages it couldn't find for that specific PHP version. So, for example, if I saw:-
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/20160303/xml.so'
I would install the library for the PHP version specifically:-
sudo apt-get install php7.1-xml
And then restart Apache. Fixed it for me. You can check your version like this:-
php -v
I had the same problem on XAMPP for Windows10 when I try to install composer.
Unable to load dynamic library '/xampp/php/ext/php_bz2.dll'
Then follow this steps
just open your current_xampp_containing_drive:\xampp(default_xampp_folder)\php\php.ini in texteditor (like notepad++)
now just find - is the current_xampp_containing_drive:\xampp exist?
if not then find the "extension_dir" and get the drive name(c,d or your desired drive) like.
extension_dir="F:\xampp731\php\ext" (here finded_drive_name_from_the_file is F)
again replace with finded_drive_name_from_the_file:\xampp with current_xampp_containing_drive:\xampp and save.
now again start the composer installation progress, i think your problem will be solved.
What I did was;
1 - I first find out what version of PHP I am using thru the function phpinfo()
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
2 - From there you will find the location of your configuration(php.ini) file
3 - Open that file
4 - Comment out the line similar to the image below
This might be a different value but it should be related to extension.
I am no expert but this process helped me solved similar problem.
In my case I got this error because I downloaded a thread-safe version of the dll (infixed with -ts-), but my installation of php was a non-thread-safe (infixed with -nts-). Downloading the right version of the dll, exactly matching my php installation version fixed the issue.
After Windows 10 XAMPP now I installed LAMPP (XAMPP) on Ubuntu. Windows XAMPP had a lot less to configure compare to MAC (iOS) but now with Linux Ubuntu I had a few more since there are more going in Linux (a good thing).
I confused and activated mysqli.dll (and mysql.dll: erase "#" in /etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini
I started to get the PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library message related to dll. I commented out mysql(and i).dll in the same file but the message didn't go away up until I commented out " " in /opt/lampp/etc/php.ini.
Looks like XAMPP reads php.ini file from /etc/php/7.2/cli and makes modification in php.ini of /opt/lampp/etc. (;extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll after ";" restarted Apache and no more any message.
I encountered a similar error. The mistake I made was to use the "controller" name as "Pages" instead of "pages" in my url.
In Windows, it could be a wrong path in "System environment variables".
"Path" to the php.exe directory must be the good one.
'C:/PHP/5.2.13/ext\php_mcrypt1.dll'
I'd say there's some typo on your php.ini (the extra 1). Perhaps you're loading a different php.ini from what you expect (see the output of php.ini to make sure).
Other than that make sure that php_mcrypt.dll and PHP:
Were linked to the same VC runtime library (typically msvcrt.dll for VC6 or msvcrt90.dll for VC9) – use e.g. the dependency walker for this
Are both debug builds or both release builds
Both have ZTS enabled or ZTS disabled
For libraries that depend on further libraries (DLLs), make sure they are available (e.g. in the same directory as the extension)
PHP should give you meaning errors if any of the first three conditions above is not satisfied, but I wrote those anyway because I'm not sure for PHP 5.2.
From C:\xampp\php\php.exe I got
Unable to load dynamic library ''
C:\xampp\php\ext\php_.dll (The specified module could not be found.)
I solved by commenting out
C:\xampp\php\php.ini
;extension=
I had the same problem when I tried to use php with sql server, when I added the sqlsrv libraries ... it gave me the error, after several days of researching there, I understood that microsoft does not support x64 in this case so what I did was install laragon x86 and use the corresponding libraries. I hope it helps with something
Go to system env variable and set the php ext dir path as
C:\xampp\php\ext
basically it's finding the ext directory and then locating it's file but it's unable to find the files becuase php path is set as different.
I run a PHP script and get this error:

I am attempting to install ionCube on my VPS from DigitalOcean and I have ran the install and selected the appropriate options but then it simply returns a screen with the header of ionCube but then it has a banner saying "IMPORTANT: Ensure that This Script Is Removed When No Longer Required" followed by a single line of writing that says "ionCube Loader Wizard" and does nothing. In addition the application that it using ionCube says it is still not installed.
The empty Wizard page might indicate that a few PHP functions are disabled, though without the output of your phpinfo(); I can only guess.
DigitalOcean themselves have instructions on how to install the Loader, which can be found here. These are applicable to most VPS with slight alterations. A rough summary in case the link isn't available:
Get and unpack the newest Loader on your server: (if you are not on DigitalOcean please choose your own Loaders here)
32bit:
wget http://downloads3.ioncube.com/loader_downloads/ioncube_loaders_lin_x86.tar.gz
tar xvfz ioncube_loaders_lin_x86.tar.gz
64bit:
wget http://downloads3.ioncube.com/loader_downloads/ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
tar xvfz ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
Find out your extensions directory:
php -i | grep extension_dir
Which will yield something like
extension_dir => /usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs => /usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs
Copy the Loader to the extensions directory:
PHP_VERSION=$(php -r "echo PHP_MAJOR_VERSION.'.'.PHP_MINOR_VERSION;")
sudo cp "ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_${PHP_VERSION}.so" /your/extensions/dir
For example with the previous output:
PHP_VERSION=$(php -r "echo PHP_MAJOR_VERSION.'.'.PHP_MINOR_VERSION;")
sudo cp "ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_${PHP_VERSION}.so" /usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/
Add the zend_extension entry to your php.ini. This step is not described in the DigitalOcean tutorial, it seems that their PHP is set up to load any extension in the extensions directory I assume, so this might not be necessary for you.
Find out where your php.ini file is (or better yet, plugin directory):
php -i | grep "Loaded Config"
php -i | grep "Scan this dir"
You will get something like this:
Loaded Configuration File => /etc/php.ini
Scan this dir for additional .ini files => /etc/php.d
You can either add this entry to the top of your php.ini (in this case in /etc/php.ini), or add a new file 00-ioncube in your ini directory (in this case /etc/php.d/00-ioncube with this content:
zend_extension = "<path to your ioncube loader>"
As an example with PHP 5.5 and the previous path:
zend_extension = "/usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/ioncube_loader_lin_5.4.so"
Restart your webservers:
service apache2 restart
service php5-fpm restart
Do remember to delete the ionCube Loader Script you installed from your server, since this might pose a security risk if left on the server.
In case something goes wrong, check the output your phpinfo();, verify that you have the correct Loaders installed (pay attention to thread safety, architecture and PHP version) and get the Loaders manually from here, and again make sure to choose the right one.
If it still does not work, check your error.log (typically in /var/log/apache2/error.log or /var/log/httpd/error_log) to see if the Loader is being picked up. The ionCube Support is also available should there be any problems.
I already uncommented in php.ini:

PHP version 5.4.16:
C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.16\php.exe
Add to System path variable:
C:\ProgramData\ComposerSetup\bin
But, recive this error:
Some settings on your machine make Composer unable to work properly.
Make sure that you fix the issues listed below and run this script again:
The openssl extension is missing, which means that secure HTTPS transfers are
impossible. If possible you should enable it or recompile php with --with-openssl
I'm using:
windows 7
Wamp
php 5.1.16
apache 2.4.4
How solve this problem, please help me.
Open php.ini located in your "php" folder for example in xampp the file is in XYZ:\xampp\php\
Find "extension=php_openssl.dll"
";extension=php_openssl.dll" - remove ";"
Restart your xampp (or whatever u use), extension should be loaded after that.
Try agien to install composer.
ensure you are editing the php.ini locate on same place where is located php.exe, i was the same problem and wamp say the openssl is actived but Composer-Setup.exe used the php.ini in php directory/ext/ and wamp used C:\System...\php.ini,
Regards,
I have battled this several times. And this is the best solution I have found.
As mentioned, you need to ensure that extension=php_openssl.dll is enabled but doing just that sometimes may not resolve the error.
You should check that you have PHP on your path variable then see what INI file is loaded by typing php --ini in the console it should give you something like:
Configuration File (php.ini) Path: C:\WINDOWS
Loaded Configuration File: C:\WINDOWS\php.ini
Scan for additional .ini files in: (none)
Additional .ini files parsed: (none)
Make sure you are enabling the settings in the correct ini file. If you dont have an ini file loaded put an ini file from the php directory into c:\windows.
Also important
I find it helps to change the extension_dir flag to an absolute path from relative to makesure the system can find php_opensll.dll.
To do this uncomment the line starting extension_dir and change it to match from the drive root.
Example: C:\php\ext instead of ext/
For MAMP users, this is what worked for me.
If your php.ini is located under a \MAMP\conf\
copy the php.ini into a\MAMP\bin\php\php[your PHP version number]\
Restart MAMP and the command-line window
Go to a directory under a command-line window where you want to install composer
run from a command line:
php -r "readfile('http://getcomposer.org/installer');" | php
NOTE: it is http not https !
END
I figured it out and successfully installed Composer in My windows 10 PC.
I am sharing two solutions here.
There are some steps you have to follow in order to solve your problem.
1st solution.
Find and Open php.ini located in your "php" folder In my case it is in xampp the file is in c:\xampp\php\
Find "extension=php_openssl.dll"
";extension=php_openssl.dll" uncomment by removing the semicolon ";"
Restart your xampp , now extension should be loaded after that.
Try again now you are able to install composer.
2nd solution(If the above solution not work for you then go with below solution . )
This works in my case
Find and Open php.ini located in your "php" folder In my case it is in xampp the file is in c:\xampp\php\
Open SHELL from Xampp start panel by clicking on shell button.
Write php in shell and hit enter
If you get some waring message in your shell something like below .
Then you have to fix these waring message by commenting all these extension in your php.ini file.(Actually cause of these warning messages are because more than one time these extensions are enabled but you can un-comment it in php.ini file for solving the issue).
For Example which is in my case.
a). You can see in above image there is warning message for curl.
Module 'curl' already loaded in Unknown on line 0 .
b) To fix this find php_curl.dll file in your php.ini file and comment that extension by adding semicolon ";" in front of that extension like this ;extension=php_curl.dll
Follow above steps if you have more than one warning for each extension untill you are not getting any warning message in your shell.
Restart your xampp , now extension should be loaded after that.
Try again now you are able to install composer.
Hope I can solve your issue .
That's all folks . Happy coding !!! (amitamie.com) :-) ;-)
The problem solved after turn off windows firewall.
installation complete!
I nearly wrapped my head off trying to install composer on my windows 7 machine.
I was trying to install composer through the composer installer from getcomposer.org.
After the common openssl extension enabling (As above answers describing).
The installer has finished the installation successfully. But calling composer on the command line, wasnt
possible. It was telling me composer / application not found, check for typos etc...
Cant getting it running, I looked at the manually install guide and noticed something weird.
The doc said: "Close your current terminal. Test usage with a new terminal:"
I closed my terminal window. Opened a new one and IT WORKED!!!
I had a terminal window open during the composer installation. After that I was trying to call composer via the command line in this terminal. This didnt work.
So why did it not work?
The composer installer downloads the composer.phar file and sets a environment path to it. The terminal only gets the environment PATHS, when it gets started. So of course the path wasnt set for the terminal.
Solution:
If you have a terminal open before the installation just close it and open a new terminal window to get composer ready to use!!!
I hope I can save someone a couple hours of living time.
You can follow this guide:

Hope it helps you.
Find a php.ini in C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.16\ (the configuration file of PHP).
Remove ; in lines ;extension=php_openssl.dll and ;extension_dir = "ext". PHP will know that you are using a php_openssl extension and extension_dir is the location of extensions (you can see it in the comment above php_openssl).
Run the Windows command prompt with administrator permissions.
Execute the following command: mklink C:\Windows\php.ini C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.16\php.ini
Composer search php.ini in C:\Windows\php.ini and you have your PHP in WAMP. With mklink command you create a link php.ini that aim to your WAMP's php.ini.
i was facing the same issue but i fixed that,
if you are using wamp
goto your selected php version directory and then you need to edit that directory php.ini file
replace this line ;extension=php_openssl.dll to extension=php_openssl.dll and save and then restart then it will be working :)
Beside all of the above If php/xampp is not installed in c drive this problem occurred (what happened with me).
In that case please follow this link :

I was facing the same issue in windows 7 PC with xampp.
Cannot open '\xampp\php\extras\browscap.ini' for reading in Unknown on line 0
I just change the value of 'browscap' in php.ini file. Use full path instead of absolute path.
In my case Xampp was in E drive so I have changed
browscap="\xampp\php\extras\browscap.ini"
to
browscap="E:\xampp\php\extras\browscap.ini"
And it works for me!
just getting into php. Trying to get NuSphere remote debugging working. I am coming from VS background so i like that NuSphere is c compiled and not java.
Ok so if you use NuSphere maybe you can help me. I've dumped the dbg-php.5.3.so file in my extensions directory. I've modified my php.ini file:
zend_extension="/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/dbg-php-5.3.so"
[debugger]
debugger.enabled=on
debugger.profiler_enabled=on
the file is found.. except when i restart the webserver and run phpinfo (from my user account on a WHM/Cpanel server) the module does not show as being loaded??
I am using the trial version.. not sure if that matters.
This is what I did:
Login to SSH and type php -i | grep php.ini
This will give you the path to the php.ini file you need to edit, on this system it happens to be /usr/local/lib/php.ini (Running CentOS 6 x86_64 with WHM/cPanel).
Edit /usr/local/lib/php.ini and search "extension_dir" which will give you the path to place dbg-php-5.3.so, on this system it happens to be /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626. Add the .so file there and continue to modify your php.ini file with the debugger options.
To test the the debugger is being loaded I restart httpd "service httpd restart" and then "php -v" to verify the extension loaded properly.
I hope this helps!
