Here’s a ‘possible’ solution to the ionCube Loader problem that worked for me. At one point in time I installed DBG so that I could do remote debugging using PhpEd. It worked ok, but I didn’t see a need for it, however I never uninstalled the Zend DBG debugger extension. When trying to work through the problem of getting ionCube from causing some problem I noticed that when I had the line:
zend_extension = /usr/local/ioncube/ioncube_loader_fre_5.2.so
in my php.ini file, my:
#php -m
PHP Warning: Module 'ionCube Loader' already loaded in Unknown on line 0
The ionCube PHP Loader is disabled because of startup problems.
[Zend Modules]
the ionCube PHP Loader
and
#php -v
PHP Warning: Module 'ionCube Loader' already loaded in Unknown on line 0
The ionCube PHP Loader is disabled because of startup problems.

Which is quite puzzling in it’s own regard. Why does adding it remove DBG? NFI!
Since I currently do not use DBG I just yanked it out.Problem Solved… For me at least.
