If you need to install SourceGuardian loader for a specific alt-PHP version, you can follow these general steps:

1. Download the SourceGuardian Loader:

   • Visit the official SourceGuardian website and download the appropriate loader for your alt-PHP version.

2. Upload the Loader to Your Server:

   • Transfer the loader file (usually named ixed.XX) to your server. You can use FTP, SFTP, or any other preferred method to upload files.

3. Determine the PHP Extension Directory:

   • You'll need to know the directory where PHP extensions are stored for the specific alt-PHP version you're using. This can vary depending on your server's configuration.

4. Move or Copy the Loader to the Extension Directory:

   • Navigate to the directory where PHP extensions are stored. This is typically something like /opt/alt/phpXX/usr/lib64/php/modules/.

   • Move or copy the SourceGuardian loader file (ixed.XX) to this directory.

5. Configure php.ini:

   • Open the php.ini file for the alt-PHP version you're using. This is typically located in /opt/alt/phpXX/usr/php/php.ini.

   • Add the following line to load the SourceGuardian extension:

     makefile

• • extension=ixed.XX

  • Replace XX with the appropriate version number.

• Restart PHP-FPM or Web Server:

  • Restart the PHP-FPM service or the web server to apply the changes.

  • For PHP-FPM, you can use a command like:

    bash
• sudo service alt-phpXX-fpm restart

• For Apache, you can use:

  bash
• • sudo service httpd restart
