The iconv API is the standard programming interface for converting character strings from one character encoding to another in Unix-like operating systems. All recent Linux distributions contain a free implementation of iconv() as part of the GNU C Library which is the C library for current Linux systems.
To use it, the GNU glibc locales need to be installed, which is provided as a separate package, named glibc-locale usually, and is normally installed by default.
Requirements:
- a CPanel server :army:
- WHM root access to the server
- glibc-locale
- a working compiler
Steps:
- login to your WHM as root at http://[your_server_ip]:2086 or https://[your_server_ip]:2087 or http://[your_server_ip]/whm.
- Go to "Software" on the left sidebar.
- Click "Apache Update".
- Click "Load Previous Config" in order to work with your previous configuration.
- Scroll down the page, find "Iconv (experimental)" text, check it.
- No need to adjust other settings.
- Scroll down again till the bottom, click "Start Build".
- You'll see the compile proccess, do nothing, do not close the window, sit back and relax, just wait :clock: until the browser progress indocator stopped.
Voila, now you have iconv compiled with PHP :thumbup:
PS: Do this at your own risk, we do not guarantee this will work on all CPanel servers!
