Plesk 12.5 PHP5.3.29 mod_php

[Frenzel]

For an application that can't be upgraded yet I need to run PHP 5.3 under mod_php. Now Plesk can run mod_php for 5.4 and Plesk can run PHP5.3.

My question is: I do not need mod_php for something other then PHP 5.3.29. And yes I do understand I should upgrade/fix the software, but I can't at the moment.

Anyone any help?

Could you please tell me why you can't use mod_php for PHP5.3 like this:

 

[Frenzel]

Yesss that is what I want to see but I do not have this option. Only PHP 5.4 has the Apache module served by Apache option.... So how did you do this magic? Please learn me and I will forever be grateful!

It is test Plesk server with default installation on CentOS 6.7.
I see this module in output:

[root@ppu12-5 ~]# plesk bin php_handler --list

id: display name: full version: version: type: cgi-bin: php-cli: php.ini: custom: status:

Check output of this command on your server.

Looks like that you have installed PHP5.4 from your OS vendor repository. PHP nodule can be only one in system.

 

[Frenzel]

Okay? But how can I solve this then? Can I switch the PHP module to 5.3 and not connect it to 5.4?

 

[IgorG]

Maybe downgrade of oS vendor php will help, but I do not understand why your webapplication can't work with mod_php 5.4?

 

[Frenzel]

Again, the application doesn't run at the moment on higher then 5.3. I can't change that right now.

What do you mean with downgrade the OS Vendor PHP? So install PHP 5.3 from CentOS? And then it will work? Is the Apache module on PHP 5.4 because CentOS is doing this?

 

[IgorG]

Yes, you have installed PHP5.4 from CentOS. Downgrade to PHP5.3 is not the trivial procedure, but you can try, at least, if it is critical for your application.
