[PHP] Upgrading PHP versions
Hi, We are currently using PHP version 5.2.6. in production, and I'd like to upgrade to the latest 5.3.1 My Assumptions: - I can simply download the Windows binary file, and install it. - None of the 5.2.6 code will break Will there be a momentary interruption of web services during the install? Will the current PHP applications stop working during the upgrade? Thanks for any info. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Assumption 2 is invalid. You need to take a close look at the change log. Many features from 5.2 are no longer available and will break code that depends on them.

Re: [PHP] Upgrading PHP versions
We are currently using PHP version 5.2.6. in production, and I'd like to upgrade to the latest 5.3.1 Before upgrading production, upgrade your staging server and do QA. Any big changes like this should be tested in staging before being pushed to production. Also take a look at http://php.net/ChangeLog-5.php to be sure you know what has changed between 5.2.6 and 5.3.1. My Assumptions: - I can simply download the Windows binary file, and install it. I don't use PHP on Windows, but I would never make this assumption. Things never seem to be as easy as I expect them to be. Try on a staging server before making a change like this in production. - None of the 5.2.6 code will break That's a big assumption. The only way I know of to test it is running the code on a box with 5.3.1 and test it. Will there be a momentary interruption of web services during the install? Will the current PHP applications stop working during the upgrade? I've never used IIS, so I may not be helpful here. If you're using Apache on Windows you'll need to restart Apache is generally a very fast operation.

RE: [PHP] Upgrading PHP versions
You may be right, I keep thinking of the bugs that were dropped out of 6.0, like magic quotes and register globals.

[PHP] Upgrading PHP 4.2.2 on Red Hat 9
Greetings, Has anyone successfully upgraded a PHP 4.2.2 installation on a Red Hat 9 machine to a more secure version? I just want any more-secure version of PHP than 4.2.2, but it's looking like I'll have to use Fedora or Gentoo or Mandrake or something in order to be successful. Of course, this means arranging for a different host/dedicated server ... My main issue is that libdb-4.0.so is needed by existing installations of curl, python, pam, cyrus, webalizer, db4, perl, postfix, sendmail, perl-DB_File and on and on. And that's not even close to the end of the old program dependencies list. Upgrading via rpm is going to be a humongous pain if I have to upgrade every program listed in the dependencies (rpm -Uvh --test), even if I can figure out which order they need to be done in. Building from source kills my httpd process so that it cannot be restarted. Last two times I tried that I had to restore from my Apache backup files, clean out the more recent PHP install and reinstall v.4.2.2 in order to get everything up and running again. And that was an attempt to get up to 4.3.10! Forget about v.5.0.3! PHP.net says to be sure to upgrade ... but there's no indication of what that means, or how to do it, or in what order all of the dependent programs should be upgraded (if neccessary). I can find no step-by-step upgrading instructions in any PHP or Linux newsgroup, forum, or doc. There's no 4.2.2 to 4.3.x patch. I understand that there are manymany upgrade details that are machine-and-OS-dependent, but I could use ANY kind of help with this at all besides be sure to upgrade. So I come here. (php.install hasn't had an entry for a long time, and php.migration ended in 2001) I'll post data, config settings, whatever you think might be helpful. I'm hoping for someone to say First, do this ...; then, do this ..., if at all possible. I'll even take Here's how I did it ... Thanks in advance for ANY help at all.

[PHP] Upgrading PHP windows binaries
Hi, I want to see if I can use PHP 4.3.0RC1, and downloaded the windows binaries. Currently I'm using PHP 4.2.3 on a Win NT and XP OS, I've made the installation with the phpdev package from firepages. My question. What files do I have to change so I don't have to reinstall my Apache and Mysql? Is it just copying the Files from the Win PHP 4.3 ORC1 to my current php directory, and then altering the php.ini file or are there other files (such as httpd.conf) that should be reconfigured? If so, which files? Thanks! Simon -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Upgrading PHP on Redhat
Hi David, you should start by checking your current php instalation: # rpm - qa | grep php This will show you all packages which contains php. It will be something like following: php-4.1.2-7.2.4 php-manual-4.0.6-15 php-imap-4.0.6-15 php-ldap-4.0.6-15 php-mysql-4.0.6-15 php-odbc-4.0.6-15 php-pgsql-4.0.6-15 Now you know what packages you have installed on your system. Now go to Red Hat web site to find all this packages - you should to upgrade all of them. If you have Red Hat Linux 7.2, go to http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2002-102.html and find all of this packages and download them. Be sure you are downloading rpms for your version (ie. 7.2). If you will have all these files downloaded, write the folowwing rpm command whitch will update all of packages: # rpm -Uv php-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm php-manual-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm \ php-imap-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm php-ldap-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm \ php-mysql-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm php-odbc-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm \ php-pgsql-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm All the packages are on the one line. Something like following: # rpm - UV package_1 package_2 ... packege_n By this way you will update all the packages and there shouldn't be any dependencies error. If yes, please let me know. I'm not an expert for Red Hat Linux but I am yousind this distribution and I am doing it by this way... and it's works for me.

RE: [PHP] upgrading php...
I think there were security updates in the newer version that you'll benefit from, so it's worth your time. Check the README file for the new download. There are notes on upgrading. -Original Message- Currently I'm using php 4.0.5 on Win98/apachedo you think it's worth my time and trouble to upgrade to a newer version of PHP? Is this hard to do?

Re: [PHP] upgrading php...
PS Currently I'm using php 4.0.5 on Win98/apachedo you think it's worth PS my time and trouble to upgrade to a newer version of PHP? yes. It should take about 15 minutes, unless your download connection is slow. :) PS Is this hard to do? No. Download zip file. Extract contents. Move appropriate files. Make changes to php.ini. Make changes (if necessary for path names) to httpd.conf. Restart apache. Upgrade on windows means delete old files and install new ones. Basically. It's all in the manual. Or, I have tutorials here: http://www.thickbook.com/extra/index.html?t=in There are other installation tutorials in many places. - Julie -- Julie Meloni -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- www.thickbook.com Find Sams Teach Yourself MySQL in 24 Hours at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0672323494/thickbookcom-20 -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Upgrading PHP
All, I have a question about upgrading php With the CERT advisory coming yesterday and the quick response from the PHP website I thought today would be a good day to upgrade my PHP I initially installed the php 403 src in /usr/src and built it as an apache module DSO To upgrade I deleted the old source still in /usr/src and untarred php 412 I then configured it and ran make and make install Everything went well until I run the phpinfo() test script I made, I did stop and start Apache It still shows me as using PHP 403 Can someone tell me what I need to do to get rid of the older version of PHP and upgrade to the new?

Re: [PHP] Upgrading PHP
Thanks for the reply. I have another question. If I have to recompile Apache can I take this opportunity to upgrade it as well. I'm using 1.3.14 but would like to upgrade to a more recent version. Also, I remember when I compiled PHP the first time I had to have the Apache source and when I compiled PHP one of the configure parameters was --with-apache=../apache1.3.14 . Since I didn't do that for this recent compile of PHP will I have to compile PHP over again? TIA - Frank At 03:37 PM 2/28/2002, you wrote: Frank, Using PHP as an Apache module requires you recompile apache as a whole.

TIA - Frank If you didn't put the '--with-apache' in, PHP compiled itself as a CGI binary executable Yes, you'll need to recompile PHP over again You may want to take this opportunity to investigate Apache's DSO system (dynamic shared object) You can recreate a new PHP 'module' for Apache without having to recompile Apache again in the future It's apparently a small performance hit, but I've not been able to notice any sizable decrease in performance on production servers we work with using the DSO system Hope that helps -- Michael Kimsal http://wwwphphelpdeskcom Taking the ? out of ?php 734-480-9961 -- PHP General Mailing List (http://wwwphpnet/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://wwwphpnet/unsubphp

Re: [PHP] Upgrading PHP
One issue I've come across is if you have a site up and running, make php and install php and make and install apache, php won't be upgraded You need to stop apache before you install the new apache so after you make apache, stop the running apache, install apache, and then start apache up again On Thu, 2002-02-28 at 16:32, Frank Miller wrote: All, I have a question about upgrading php With the CERT advisory coming yesterday and the quick response from the PHP website I thought today would be a good day to upgrade my PHP I initially installed the php 403 src in /usr/src and built it as an apache module DSO To upgrade I deleted the old source still in /usr/src and untarred php 412 I then configured it and ran make and make install Everything went well until I run the phpinfo() test script I made, I did stop and start Apache It still shows me as using PHP 403 Can someone tell me what I need to do to get rid of the older version of PHP and upgrade to the new?
