Thanks all for your kind responses.

I am new to web world.

I am worried for few things.  Lets say I will be taking a dedicated server say from rackspace or doster or godady and host my site as a commercial one.

I would not doubt the companies like rackspace or godady ..., but difficult to believe admin engineers who may take the source code and give it to somebody else for few dollars..,

How do we protect such things.., please guide me..., thats the reason I would like to obfuscate the code or build the exe by using hiphop or phc.

Again.., not sure if it is feasible to build drupal using hiphop or phc.., has anybody tried and running as commercial site...

Thanks
Austin

Those aren't errors. They are notices.

Since the errors only occur when using PHC, then the problem lies in PHC. I would ask on their mailing list.

I doubt you would find much help from the Drupal Community since obfuscating is generally frowned upon (and even consider a violation of terms by some) by the open source world and therefor not really used.

Dear All
I compiled phc in ubuntu 10.04 lts.
Next I am trying to obfusace some php code (which is part of a drupal based code). I just tried obfuscating a single file using phc. It did  work.

But when I am trying to access my site, I get bunch of below errors.

Notice: Undefined variable: TSa200978216 in doc_search_my_form() (line 475 of /var/www/example.com/sites/all/modules/doc_search/doc_search.module).
Notice: Undefined variable: TSa1454652404 in doc_search_my_form() (line 482 of /var/www/example.com/sites/all/modules/doc_search/doc_search.module).


Mostly these are variable undefined errors. When the file is in normal mode (having normal php code), it does not throw any error. When the file is in obfuscated mode , when I access my site I get lots of variable undefined error. Any idea what's wrong here.

Thanks
