Error Ioncube PHP encoder

[JxstErg1]

Hi and welcome to the forum! Someone else in the forum had the same issue as yours, and here is the respective reply:

Error 500 when visiting website

You probably have encrypted code (vendor) somewhere in your code that “belongs” to ionCube - whose version is older. PHP source code is encoded and requires the correct version of ionCube Loader to successfully decode it. Usually, the file uses a version of the ionCube Loader for PHP 7 or earlier and cannot use ionCube loader for PHP 8.2.

Also, ionCube Loader is already installed on free hosting, so there is no need to install it again nor can you install it on your own.
