Step by Step Instructions to enable IonCube Loader on Synology DSM 7.x & PHP7.3

Connect to Synology

1. Enable SSH/Terminal

Please follow the official instructions provided by Synology.

https://kb.synology.com/en-in/DSM/help/DSM/AdminCenter/system_terminal?version=7

2. Connect to Synology via SSH/Terminal

Use putty or any other terminal client.

IP Address: Your Synology DNS/IP.

Port: 22 (default, unless changed).

Username: Your Synology Username

Password: Your Synology Password

Once connected, you can switch to root user. To do so, type "sudo -i" and enter your Synology password.

Install IonCube Loader

1. Download IonCube Loader PHP Extension

The instructions are under the assumption that you've switched to 'root' user (sudo -i).

1. Navigate to the PHP extension/module folder.

cd /usr/local/lib/php73/modules

2. Download IonCube Loader for PHP7.3

wget https://extensions.vtexpertsextensionpack.com/libraries/ioncubeloader/ioncube_loader_lin_7.3.so

2. Enable IonCube Loader on PHP7.3

1. Navigate to the PHP7.3 Configuration folder

cd /volume1/@appstore/PHP7.3/misc

2. Confirm file php-fpm.ini is in #1 folder

ls -l

The output should be similar to this:

3. Modify php-fpm.ini

The command below will alter php-fpm.ini and add "zend_extension = ioncube_loader_lin_7.3.so" to the last of the file.

echo "zend_extension = ioncube_loader_lin_7.3.so" >> php-fpm.ini

Do not run this twice, if you do - you will need to modify php-fpm.ini, scroll all the way down and delete the duplicate "zend_extension = ioncube_loader_lin_7.3.so" line.

Having more than of "zend_extension = ioncube_loader_lin_7.3.so" will stop vtiger/webserver from starting up.
