plesk 8.1, unbuntu 6.06LTS server and Php5...

Guest
hi everyone


i explain my problem :

i've installed plesk 8.1 on a fresh install of ubuntu 6.06 LTS

then i tried to upgrading php from 4 to 5 :
apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5 php5
Click to expand...

and then apt says that he will remove a lot of psa packages... if i aggree the update, of course, plesk doesn't work ...

how could i do to install php 5 without breaking plesk ? I don't understand why plesk doesn't install php5 natively because php5 packages are int the official repository of ubuntu ....


can anyone help me ? thanks :)
 
I did this on debian rather than ubuntu, but should be very similiar.

I had to remove libapache-mod-php4 with dpkg using forcedepends (I think, can't remember exact command)

then installed php5, the psa depended on mod-php4 || mod-php5.

So once it was gone, and the other in place, has worked okay.
 
thanks for answering me

i've done it on debian but there is still a problem : php doesn't work on my websites. plesk works well.

psa seems to depends on php4 but doesn't see php5...
 
Is it trying to download the php files rather than process them?

If so, you need to renable the php mod in apache.

Use a2enmod php5 (assuming that works the same on ubuntu)

If its not that, i'm afraid i'm out of ideas. G'luck wth it.
 
So the main difference was to use wget, and dpkg rather than apt?
 
i had some problems when i tried to use apt-get because of broken dependancies. that's why i use wget and dpkg.

thanks a lot for your help :)

i 've just made this turorial for people who have the same problem and would like something clear.
 
php5 on ubuntu doesn't work without breaking system

hi all

i'm trying to install plesk 8.1 in a virtuozzo VPS with the delivered EZ templates from swsoft. PHP is delivered in version 5 what we need.

but, after installing plesk, libapache2-mod-php5 is being replaced by libapache2-mod-php4.

if following the howto described above, the ubuntu system is broken and apt-get upgrade doesn't work anymore:
Code: 
root@test:/root# apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  psa: Depends: psa-php4-configurator but it is not installed or
                psa-php5-configurator but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.


the psa-php5-configurator is not installable in any way to resolve the missing dependencies... but because it's there, there must be an 'official' way how to activate PHP5 (which is already installed, except libapache2-mod-php5)

does anybody has an idea how to achieve this?

thanks and best regards.
lukas.
 
this doesn't help, as mentioned above:

root@test:/root# apt-get upgrade

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libapache2-mod-php5: Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.0-0.dotdeb.3) but 5.1.2-1ubuntu3.4 is installed
  psa-php4-configurator: Depends: libapache2-mod-php4 (>= 4:4.3.10) but it is not installable
                         PreDepends: libapache2-mod-php4 but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

...

i'm waiting now for technical support of swsoft which is not known to be the fastest...
 
you should use the official ubuntu repository instead of the dotdeb one :

try :

#dpkg -r --force-depends libapache2-mod-php5

(to remove pakage from dotdeb)

then find the "libapache2-mod-php5" package in ubuntu repository,

donwload it with wget and then install it with #dpkg -i --force-depends <PackageName>
 
already tried that... doesn't work either, because of the same reason:

psa-php4-configurator complains about the missing libapache2-mod-php4 which is not installed anymore. this is the main problem i don't get through...

regards
 
already tried that several times with no success:

Code: 
root@test:/# cat /etc/apt/sources.list

deb [url]http://autoinstall.plesk.com/ubuntu/PSA_8.1.0[/url] dapper all

root@test:/# dpkg --force-depends -r psa-php4-configurator
dpkg: psa-php4-configurator: dependency problems, but removing anyway as you request:

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

and if trying to solve the above dependencies, it get's endless... tried that for hours...

there is no way i could possibly think about...

thanks anyway!

you must install the package : libapache2-mod-php5, php5-mysql, php5-curl

with wget and dpkg -i --force-depends

an then run apt-get to install psa-php5-configurator
 
AS SAID, i tried that already several times... it's not working, because there are other dependencies afterwards which can not be resolved.

i'm not a newbie, believe me. and i tried all these possibilities for HOURS!

it sucks that SWsoft is not able to provide software which is installable out of the box. all i would expect from a buyied and licensed software would be a 'apt-get install psa-php5-configurator' and nothing more.

at least there IS a php5-way, otherwise this configurator-thing would not exist, right?? so SWsoft should support it!

unfortunately, they don't reply to support requests in reasonable time... :(


and - obviously, nobody else has solved this problem successfully without any workarounds.

hoping for the support.
 
ok well, it works for me

but it was on plesk 8.0.0 and debian

perhaps that's because it doesn't work for you ...

Click to expand...


I also have it working on debian, with php5 and plesk 8.1

It requires a couple of force depends, but it is very easy to work through it. Not even really a workaround, just bypassing a || package dependency that is misconfigured.

If you're willing to actually try stuff, I'm sure people here can help, otherwise, support sounds like your better option.
 
i might have been a little bit rude in my last mail. i would apologize for that...

the thing is, that i'm trying really hard and if i would not be willing to try and to let people help me, i wouldn't have written into this board...

but - as i suppose - ubuntu is a little bit different with the package dependencies as debian is. and probably, plesk isn't the same if it is installed through virtuozzo or if it is installed with the autoinstaller.

at least i didn't get php5 running while not breaking any dependency the way 'apt-get upgrade' would still work.

and i was trying at least in 6 newly created VPS from scratch for at least six hours... yes, these figures mean nothing. but at least it shows some effort...

i will try it again and post some console logs that you see what happens...
