Resolved PHP Updates

[themew]

Plesk 12.5 has been receiving PHP updates, but Onyx is still behind (PHP 5.6.28 and 7.0.13 was released back on Nov-10).

Should we wait until Plesk pushes the update through the nightly updates or 'yum update' PHP ourselves.

Just not sure if things have changed with Onyx.

If you wait for the daily/weekly/monthly maintenance script to call for updates/upgrades/patches is completely up to yourself. If you desire to manually install updates/upgrades/patches, just use the command

plesk installer --select-product-id plesk --select-release-current --reinstall-patch --install-component base​

... at anytime you wish to.

Hi UFHH01

You must have updated your server yourself as Plesk hasn't pushed the PHP updates to Onyx in their patches. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to break anything in Onyx as 12.5 did PHP updates on it's own.

Thanks for the reply.

nope, I didn't. The configuration settings at "Home > Tools & Settings > Update and Upgrade Settings > ( tab ) Settings" might just differ from yours.

 

[themew]

I left mine at default. UFHH01, can you share yours (or a screenshot?)

 

[UFHH01]

Hi themew,

how about READING the official Plesk documentation, which explains in detail, what the settings are for?

Plesk Updates ( Plesk Onyx ( 17.0 ) - online documentation - Administrator's Guide )​

 

[themew]

Read it a long time ago with 12.5 and recently when we upgraded our servers to Onyx. Just curious why Plesk hadn't updated PHP yet, is all, with their micro updates.

Thanks, and considered resolved.

Sorry to mention that, but Plesk Onyx has NEW features - you can't rely on documentations from a previous Plesk product. Pls. keep as well in mind, that it is possible to change the weekly maintenance day and the process time.
