Zend Guard Loader not getting enabled


I am trying to optimize my Zend Application using a Zend Guard Loader in my Xampp Contol Panel. To install and configure this, I have done the following configuration settings.

I have downloaded Zend Guard Loader from Zend Guard Loader for PHP 5.6 and extract it in my D:/xampp/php/ext/Zend-Loader.

It contains ZendLoader.dll and php_opcache.dll.

And in my php.ini file, I have updated it as:-

zend_extension_nts=D:/xampp/php/ext/Zend-Loader/ZendLoader.dll

[As my php is thread safe enabled, and so used zend_extension_nts].

Also i have uncommented and modified:-

And now when I check it using php -v or using phpinfo(),Its not showing Zend Guard Loader enabled. Any help would be appreciated.It taking a hell lot of time to configure it.Also If anyone knows the effective ways how to optimize the Zend Apllication,Please help.


Solution

  • You also need to load php_opcache.dll after ZendLoader.dll.

    Also the directive zend_extension_nts should be zend_extension. There is no zend_extension_nts and zend_extension_ts has been removed since PHP 5.3.0.

    So you php.ini should have these lines:

    zend_extension=D:/xampp/php/ext/Zend-Loader/ZendLoader.dll
    zend_extension=D:/xampp/php/ext/Zend-Loader/php_opcache.dll
    
    zend_loader.enable=1
