[PHP 7] issue with ionCube and Zend Guard Loader

[Bjarn]

Hello,

I have installed PHP 7, but now I'm trying to install Laravel using composer etc. But it was giving me errors about Zend and ionCube.

I did

php -v

and this was the result:

[xx@server1 public_html]# php -v
Failed loading /usr/local/lib/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_5.6.so:  /usr/local/lib/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_5.6.so: undefined symbol: zval_update_constant_inline_change
Failed loading /usr/local/lib/ZendGuardLoader5.6.so:  /usr/local/lib/ZendGuardLoader5.6.so: undefined symbol: zval_used_for_init
PHP 7.0.0 (cli) (built: Dec 13 2015 00:00:53) ( NTS )

Zend Engine v3.0.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2015 Zend Technologies

I can't find anything on Google, need to get this fixed asap.

PHP7 is not supported by ionCube and Zend Guard Loader yet.

Please check the following thread for more information about ionCube loaders for PHP7:

Is ionCube now supported by PHP7 ?
If not, would it be wise to disable ionCube first before upgrading to php7 ?
