[dominiosenlinea]

I have installed plesk 8.1 for windows. I need to run php4 and php5 on same machine so user has a choice. his option is handled in plesk 8.1 from windows from what i saw on swsoft website.

Does anyone have a "how to" in order to acompisht his task?

From the Domain desktop you should see the icon under Hosting that says PHP Settings.

When I first did the upgrade the PHP Settings only showed 4.4.3, so I had to go to the control panel, add and remove programs and "change" the Plesk installation, selected the option to Modify and added PHP 5, which is under Script Engines. For some reason it didn't get installed during the upgrade.

Same thing happened with the SiteBuilder, and I had to install it the way as PHP 5

Yes. Thats the way to do it, i figured it out last night. Everyone read above message for solution.

You should install MySQL 5 and register it on page Plesk > Server > SQL Servers

Hi Sergius,

thanks for the reply.

When I go to:

Plesk -> Server -> Database Server

I have two tabs:

Sql Server

Mysql Server

In sql server tabs I see: you cannot manage database server.

In mysql Server Tab I only see the config for the default mysql server (that refer to the window service name "Mysql").

Ths is a license problem ? Or misconfiguration problem ?

Nothing change if I start manualy the "Plesk Sql Server", service.

Thanks in advance

Bye

PS: for now I have manualy installed mysql server 5 on port 3306 outside PleskCP with service name mysql 5, and moved default mysql 4.x (used also for horde) to port 3307. (this is because I work on the mysql5 db from a remote machine, and I'm able to connect to it only if is set to port 3306)

1. MS SQL is disabled by your license.
2. You could specify hostname and port of your MySQL on this page. If corresponding fields are disabled then it means you already create use db on egistered MySQL.

Plesk 8.1 for Windows uses Sqlite as Horde database thus you don't need default MySQL at all.
