Has anyone else had problems with Plesk automatically updating php4 to php5 without warning?
Checked my email yesterday to see an auto mail from Plesk that Apache was down... and that's where it all started.
Sent off a support request to swsoft but they were no help.
Contacted aplus.net (dedicated server host) and within 15 minutes had discovered the problem. They said several clients had experienced this problem. Got Apache started by changing the libraries it was attempting to load to php5 instead of php4.
Bottom line now all php apps are broken, including Horde WebMail -- You'd think that Plesk would at least validate their own bundled apps would work with their update?!? Ticks me off that aplus.net would know the answer within minutes and swsoft did not help. But it really pisses me off they broke my customer's apps without any warning or notification that the upgrade was coming. Would have been nice to have some prep-time!
So -- ranting is done. Here's my problems:
open_basedir is causing all kinds of grief. Is there a way to disable this? Is there a way to disable it? Is there a way to add a wildcard to the path (because everytime we add an additional path it continues to fail at yet another point. the path is already over 255 characters.)
Also failing php functions like "PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_pconnect()" which seems really strange - those should continue to function just fine, right??
Any help is greatly appreciated!
