Let us take learn how to set up the sourceguardian on DirectAdmin with the support of our DirectAdmin support services at Bobcares.

Why install SourceGuardian on DirectAdmin?

Source Guard is a very high end php encoder that can encrypt encrypted php files in order to protect the intellectual property of the files and scripts, as well as encoding capabilities based on time and IP constraints.

In other words, we will be able to set end-to-end or proprietary IP licensing for consumers.

How to install Sourceguardian on DirectAdmin?

Follow the steps given below to set this up easily:

• Firstly, connect to the ssh server with root privileges and the Putty application first.
• After that, on the server, we may have various versions of PHP built. We must locate the proper PHP version on the server.

  To do this, we have two options:

  a: determine the current version of php -v and then find / -name php.ini to locate the php.ini file,

  B: or use the php -ini command after locating the php server version to open the php.ini file editor.

  Now, depending on the version of the PHP server, add the following statement to the file.

  extension = ixed.5.6.lin
• Save and close the file. We should now download the operating system on the server from the official Source Guardian site and the following loader URL.

  https://www.sourceguardian.com/loaders.html
• After that go to the source directory listed in the directory below.

  cd / usr / local / lib / extensions

  Select the appropriate version based on the server operating system architecture.
• Select the appropriate version based on the server operating system architecture.
• As the admin directory can only be installed on Linux, we will use Linux as our operating system.

  Furthermore, consdier that the Linux architecture is 64-bit,

  Here we choose the 64-bit Guardian with the.tar.gz extension and download it using the command below.

  Wget https://www.sourceguardian.com/loaders/download/loaders.linux-x86_64.tar.gz

Unzip the file

tar –zxvf loaders.linux-x86_64.tar.gz

If we followed the instructions above correctly, the Guardian should be installed in the admin directory.

We can also test the file encryption using this encoder in the browser to see whether the file renders properly.

Here the report indicates that the installation procedure was followed appropriately.
