Issue OpenSSL 3.0 / PHP 7.4

AlmaLinux 9.4

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.60

Hi all,

We migrated a website under PHP 7.4 (yes the now obsolete version) to a new server (Centos 7.9 to Almalinux 9.4).
We have problem with OpenSSL. The installed version is 3.0. However, it is not compatible with PHP 7.4.

# /opt/plesk/php/7.4/bin/php -i | grep "OpenSSL"
SSL Version => OpenSSL/3.0.7
OpenSSL support => enabled
OpenSSL Library Version => OpenSSL 3.0.7 1 Nov 2022
OpenSSL Header Version => OpenSSL 3.0.7 1 Nov 2022
Native OpenSSL support => enabled

While waiting to upgrade the website to 8.1, how can we use OpenSSL 1.1 compatible with 7.4?

Thank you for your help.

I don't think so. If you really want to, I guess you could install OpenSSL 1.1 and manually compile PHP 7.4 with it. But unless you are already familiare with compiling PHP yourself I would advice advice against it.
