7.5.4 - ioncube - zend question

[chilihost]

Does 7.5.4 automatically install ioncube? After upgrading php -v shows:
PHP 4.3.9 (cgi) (built: Oct 15 2004 10:27:20)
Copyright (c) 1997-2004 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v1.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2004 Zend Technologies
with the ionCube PHP Loader v2.5, Copyright (c) 2002-2004, by ionCube Ltd.

and php.ini now has this line at the bottom:
zend_extension = /usr/lib/ioncube/Ioncube_loader_lin_4.3.so

Will this affect servers running zend optimizer? I have a server on 7.5.2 and it needs zend so I need to know before upgrading it.

It installs ioncube as it is used by the sitebuilder I believe.

You can install Zend after ioncube in the php.ini file, I do this on our servers and they both work together.

thank you PaulC, I just did the upgrade and all is working well, ioncube and zend seem to coexist nicely.
