How to Install Zend for PHP 5.3

Zend Optimizer is a PHP coding framework and security framework that runs on a server and lets you execute Zend code on your Linux Web server. If you have one of the latest versions (5.3 as of June 2011) of PHP installed, you can download the latest copy of Zend Optimizer from Zend's website and install it on your Web server. You must have both FTP and SSH access to your server and be comfortable using these technologies to install Zend.

Instructions

    • 1

      Visit the Zend homepage and download the latest version of the Zend Optimizer software. It will come in a package that ends in ".tar.gz."

    • 2

      Use your FTP program and upload the Zend Optimizer to your Web server (it doesn't matter where you upload it).

    • 3

      Log in to your Web server as the root user over SSH and then use the "cd" (change directory) command to navigate to the folder where you uploaded the Zend Optimizer .tar.gz file. For example, use "cd /home/username/public_html" if you uploaded the file to the root of your Web server.

      Type "tar xvfz name_of_zend_file.tar.gz" (replacing the example file name with the actual file name) and press "Enter." Use the "cd" command to go into the newly created directory. This directory will have the same name as the .tar.gz file, minus the .tar.gz file extension.

      Type "./install.sh" and press "Enter." Press "Enter" 11 times to proceed through the automated installation process with the default options enabled.
