How to enable Zend Guard Loader in Plesk?

Chapter 2. Answer

Plesk does not provide Zend Guard Loader pre-installed. However, it can be installed manually, i.e. on Plesk 12.5, Debian-based OS, PHP 5.4:

  1. Download “ZendGuardLoader” according to PHP version 
    # wget http://downloads.zend.com/guard/6.0.0/ZendGuardLoader-70429-PHP-5.4-linux-glibc23-x86_64.tar.gz
  2. Extract ZendGuardLoader.so library and move it to modules folder 
    # tar -xzf ZendGuardLoader-70429-PHP-5.4-linux-glibc23-x86_64.tar.gz
# mv /usr/local/ZendGuardLoader-70429-PHP-5.4-linux-glibc23-x86_64/php-5.4.x/ZendGuardLoader.so /opt/plesk/php/5.4/lib64/php/modules/
  3. Set correct permissions 
    # chmod 755 /opt/plesk/php/5.4/lib64/php/modules/ZendGuardLoader.so
# chown root:root /opt/plesk/php/5.4/lib64/php/modules/ZendGuardLoader.so
  4. Create corresponding .ini file with the following content: 
    # cat /opt/plesk/php/5.4/etc/php.d/zendGuardLoader.ini
zend_extension=ZendGuardLoader.so
  5. Restart php-fpm service: 
    # service plesk-php54-fpm restart
