Regrettably, that version is not currently supported at this time.

Hello! And on Ubuntu 22.04, how do I upgrade from ioncube 12 to ioncube 13 in PHP 8.1?
If you can help me I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

Just a quick clarification: ionCube versions are tied to PHP versions, not updated like traditional software (e.g., “ionCube 12” to “ionCube 13”). You don’t upgrade ionCube independently—you install the appropriate loader for the specific PHP version you’re using.

For example, if you’re using PHP 8.1, you’ll need the loader like ioncube_loader_lin_8.1.so—nothing else is required.

To make this easier, I’ve created a bash script that automatically installs the correct ionCube Loader for the following PHP versions on CyberPanel:

  • PHP 7.2
  • PHP 7.3
  • PHP 7.4
  • PHP 8.1
  • PHP 8.2

You can find and use the script here: https://github.com/jesussuarz/cyberpanel-php-ioncube-installer

Let me know if you need help running it!
