[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 to PHP5.2.x
Dear Fellows: I want ot upgrade my PHP from 5.1.x to 5.2.x. I want to do using rpm, but any time that I going to upgrade the rpm request me more dependencies.

[PHP] Upgrading from PHP 4 to PHP 5
Hello everyone! I have a very active Apache/PHP 4 server right now that I would like to upgrade to PHP 5. Can anyone give me any personal experiences as far as upgrading to the new version goes? I looked through the upgrade FAQ, and none of the issues listed there seem to apply to me. What I'm looking for really is if anyone has come across any SNAFU's that I should know about beforehand.

[PHP] Upgrading on RH ES3
I've got a server with RedHat ES3 running. It has PHP 4.3.2 installed but for an application I want to install I need a min of 4.3.9. This server also runs apache2.0. I can't find RPMs for RH ES3 so I downloaded the source for PHP4.4.1 figuring I would just compile myself. Problem is, the INSTALL file gives instructions based on the idea that you don't already have Apache2 or an earlier ver of PHP Installed already. Since Apache2 was installed via RPM originally the INSTALL instruction for PHP with Apache2 prob won't work. ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql It's the: --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs Switch that has got me scratching my head. /usr/local/apache2/ doesn't exist and I can't find apxs anywhere on the sys.

[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.

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 SAPI from 4.2.2 to 4.3.6 on RH9 with Apache 2
Hi. I'm trying to upgrade a server (up2date RedHat9) - which is running Apache 2 (default!) and PHP 4.2.2 - to PHP 4.3.6. It is the SAPI version (running as an Apache module). I have downloaded the tar.gz, exploded that and run ./configure --disable-cgi --with-apxs2=/var/share/Apache/apxs.pl However it errors with apxs:Error: /home/httpd-win32-msi/apache-1.3.20/httpd not found or not executable So it seems I have completely the wrong version! I don't seem to be able to find apxs.pl for Apache 2 on linux (RH9). Could anyone point me in the right direction and possibly warn of me of the upcoming problems I am bound to face? :) Thanks.

Re: [PHP] Upgrading GD...
Off the top of my head I can't think of where to get GD but google should be able to tell you. As for PHP just go to http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.apache2.php assuming your running Apache 2.0 is no just change apache2 for apache in the url. The php documentation has install instructions for almost all supported servers. Read through the documentation for your distribution on the make command (or find it at gnu.org) It explains some stuff about part of configuration.

[PHP] upgrading WAMP environment
I've been using Apache, MySQL and PHP under Win2k for a while to learn PHP. At the moment, I'm running PHP 4.2.2, MySQL 3.23.39 and Apache 2.0.40. During the holidays, I've read about a security hole in MySQL and therefore plans to upgrade to 3.23.54a. At the same time, I want to install PHP 4.3.0 and Apache 2.0.43. But when I started to look for upgrading instructions for each software package, I find nothing. Therefore, I would like to know how to perform an upgrade of each package? Should the MySQL and Apache deamons be stopped first? Should I install into my current directories? Will my config files be overwritten? Does it matter which of the three I upgrade first? What more should I keep in mind? If questions like these are considered off topic, please let me know.

[PHP] upgrading script from using GLOBALS
Hi,
I am trying to upgrade my script which currently uses globals (and
register_globals=on) to turning that flag off. The online documentation
on register globas has the following code recommended by users in order
to register the variables:
$GLOBALS[dbname] = dbname;
//register globals
foreach ($GLOBALS as $key=$val) {
if ($key !=GLOBALS') {
eval(\$$key = '$val';);
}
}
I am using the global array to connect to my database. I find that if I
insert the code above, I get an error message that the document
contains no data. Can anyone tell me why? Perhaps I would be better
off just declaring the variable? Would that take care of the problem?
$dbname= dbname;
Thanks,
Nicole

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. Best regards, Jan - Original Message - From: David Yee [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, September 08, 2002 10:59 PM Subject: [PHP] Upgrading PHP on Redhat Hi all. What's the correct procedure to upgrade PHP (in this case 4.0.6) on a Red Hat system? Usually I just get the PHP tarball compile it myself but for this particular machine I just want to upgrade the Redhat PHP that's on the system. As you guys know Redhat puts its PHP (and Apache) files in different locations- e.g. php.ini is in /etc. I looked for some RPMs but I kept getting failed dependencies when trying to install them- e.g.: # rpm -Uvh php-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm error: failed dependencies: php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-manual-4.0.6-15 php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-imap-4.0.6-15 php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-ldap-4.0.6-15 php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-mysql-4.0.6-15 php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-odbc-4.0.6-15 php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-pgsql-4.0.6-15 I'm not an expert in using rpm so I'm probably doing something completely wrong???

Re: [PHP] upgrading error
Just a thought... If you have downloaded 10 packages perhaps you need to upgrade ALL of them AT THE SAME TIME. So, instead of doing: rpm -Uvh php-4.1.2-7.i386.rpm. Try this: 1. Put all packages in the same folder 2. rpm -Fvh *.rpm The "F" (instead of "U") updates all INSTALLED packages only. I didn't really check but it might work. If not, perhaps, you need to have more packages other than the ones you've already downloaded... - E I have PHP 4.0.4p11 on RH Linux 7.1.

You can also create $iv with this:

My problem was not getting things to work with either version of

getting libmcrypt 2.4.x decrypting the data previously encrypted by 2.2.x.
Here's some general info for anyone interested. I would have been
very
pleased to find this will searching the archive and I didn't, so I am doing
it for anybody else facing the same problem.
1) PHP linked with libmcrypt 2.2.x is not too picky about Initialization
Vectors, but with 2.4.x, it will give a warning message if you don't specify
one with some of the functions or simply wont work with others. Check my
example code below to see what I did.
2) PHP will segfault if you use a key size with the wrong lenght with 2.4.x
and it won't with 2.2.x. Be very careful about the lenght of your key in
2.4.x, what worked previously might not work now.
Decryption under libmcrypt 2.2.x:
-
$clear_text = mcrypt_cbc ($cipher, $key, hex2bin($crypted_text),
MCRYPT_DECRYPT);
-
Encryption under libmcrypt 2.2.x:
-
$crypted_text = bin2hex(mcrypt_cbc ($cipher, $key, $clear_text,
MCRYPT_ENCRYPT));
-
The following code is what I had to do to get a similar (compatible)
behaviour
under libmcrypt 2.4.x. Note that I create an initialization vector filled
with \0 characters, which is, I believe, the default behavior with
libmcrypt 2.2.x. The PHP manual somewhere recommends to use 0 if you do not
want to use an initialization vector. This did not work for me, as this is
not the default 2.2.x behavior. I think the manual should be modified as it
greatly confiused me.
Encryption under libmcrypt 2.4.x:
-
$td = mcrypt_module_open ($cipher, , MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, );
$i = 0;
while ($i mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size ($td)) {
$iv .= \0;
$i++;
}
mcrypt_generic_init ($td, $key, $iv);
$crypted_text = bin2hex(mcrypt_generic($td, $plain_text));
mcrypt_generic_end ($td);

Decryption under libmcrypt 2.4.x:
-
$td = mcrypt_module_open ($cipher, , MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, );
$i = 0;
while ($i mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size ($td)) {
$iv .= \0;
$i++;
}
mcrypt_generic_init ($td, $key, $iv);
$plain_text = mdecrypt_generic($td, hex2bin($crypted_text));
mcrypt_generic_end ($td);
-
In these snippets, $crypted_text is the encrypted data in hexadecimal format.
This allows data to be stored (in DB's for example) or displayed without
problems. You need the following function:
function hex2bin($data) {
$len = strlen($data);

Re: [PHP] Upgrading from libmcrypt 2.2.x to 2.4.x
Hi,
Thanks for the hint.
Just a small note to let you know that my code to decrypt a string will
return a string with filled with null characters at the end. You should
trim() it.
Also, anybody knows how to detect if the PHP build is linked with 2.2 or 2.4?
I would like my crypt / decrypt functions to detect which mcrypt version is
used dynamically, so the same code could run with both versions without
modifications.
Right now the only way I found is to check whether the MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128
constant (or any other cipher type constants) is a number or a string (these
constants are strings under 2.4.x and numbers under 2.2.x). Any better way of
doing this?
I've checked the php info functions, they can tell if a certain extension is
present but this is not very helpful..
Thank you,
Cedric

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. It's still using the php4.0.3 module, and when you recompile with the new php it will register the 4.1.2 module.

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

Yes, you have to re-compile php because php compile and install a module under apache_1.3.xx/src/modules Thanks for the reply. I have another question.

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?

[PHP] Upgrading to 4.04 question, but won't stick
We've had 4.01 running since July so I thought I'd upgrade to 4.04 from the tarball last night. Everything went fine w/ the compile, no errors. Install said all OK, Then i went and HUP'd apache but when I run phpinfo() the old module is still loaded. What am I doing wrong? Where should I look to solve my problem. When I look in the /modules/ directory the dates on the new modules are yesterday, so they've all moved correctly, etc. I intentionally tried to break the phpmodule to see which one I'm actually using by changing the name of the file but that didn't work. Linux 6.2, Apache 1.3.12., MySQL, PHP 4.01 Any help appreciated. If someone can just point me to an RPM that'll install on RH 6.2, I'll just use that. The current RPM's over at RH won't install because they are for RH 7.

The current RPM's over at RH won't install because they are for RH 7. Well, it's my opinion that on an RPM-package based system it is wise to do custom package installations via RPM also - so that you don't break the RPM dependency checking. It's not that hard to grab the PHP4 SRPM from RedHat's Rawhide stash, install it, replace the tarball with the latest from php.net, and then build the RPM and then install it. It's a bit of extra work, but it keeps RPM functioning properly. If you need things like pdflib, it's not that hard to create the spec file and build it, too.

You renamed the library and restarted the server and it still came up with 4.0.1? If so, you are doing something dumb. Like perhaps you compiled 4.0.1 statically into your httpd. Check this by doing "httpd -l". If you see php listed you know it was compiled statically into your binary. If it isn't static, go look at your LoadModule line in your httpd.conf and see where it is loading the module from. Make sure this is pointing at this new module you built. Also make sure that the web server you restarted is the right one. I have seen many people who install Apache and PHP without realizing that they already have an Apache instance on their server. And when they do an apachectl restart the apachectl script actually restarts the wrong server on them. -Rasmus -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
