need help in stalling zend optimizer on xampp

[rusty813]

I am getting an error message with xampp that zend optimizer is not installed, i downloaded it from the software from the website, and I dont know to install as the php.ini as be located in a certain folder...if anyone could give me instructions that would be really nice

Isn't zend optimizer already installed with XAMPP for windows? It should be in the php folder in your xampp install.

Of course you also could have just looked down the page a bit (or used the Search Forum)

Is this what you do, just wait around for posts to reply like a dick?

If you don't want to have answers, simply don't ask questions.

* Actually I pointed out the correct information.

to summarize - probably not happening. Zend is not part of the XAMMP suite.

Do you have scripts that are encoded with Zen Guard?

If not - then Zend Optimizer is not for you anyway

IF you do need Zen Guard, then Zend makes a complete stack solution; Zend Server Community Edition. However, I don't think its compatible with XAMMP at a binary level. You will probably need a standalone Apache install.

You probably should inquire on their forums - and you might want to read this:

Good Luck


and, as it happens I DO have a penis, thank you for asking.

@slippunches:

NOOOO - that is eAccelerator that comes with XAMMP, its a fork of the original Zend byte-code caching system - its not an encoder. (and it works quite well with zero effort other than uncommenting the line in php.ini)

OTAY?

Using Zend Server CE is the easiest way to get the Zend components working. It's installation is quite easy and nearly working right out of the box.
Like in the XAMPP stack, the Apache you can install with Zend is compiled and configurated for exact this stack. You can't change the Apache component with another.

I think the chance to get the missing XAMPP things working on the Zend Server CE Apache is higher then the other way round, but haven't tried it yet.

Some more information about Zend Optimizer for XAMPP:
Zend Optimizer is part of Zend Guard and for PHP 5.3 it needs Zend Loader dll for PHP 5.3.

But Zend Loader only supports PHP in non thread-safe FCGI mode

so i don't see any chance to get this working with the XAMPP releases 1.7.2 - 1.7.4.

Too much information for me on this friday morning

That is exactly my understanding as well - just not going to work, period.

and slipunches accused me of being a dick, - well -- I am one, LOL.
