Issue Unable to Upgrade Plesk - php-mysql is needed by psa-php5-configurator-1.7.0-cos7.build1708180212.17

Hi Developers and Community,

i have a Problem with Plesk Onyx Upgrade for PHP.

For the Plesk YUM update, the installer shows me these errors.

Running Transaction Check
Fatal error during packages installation: [u'ERROR with transaction check vs depsolve:', 'php-mysql is needed by psa-php5-configurator-1.7.0-cos7.build1708180212.17.x86_64']
YumRPMCheckError: [u'ERROR with transaction check vs depsolve:', 'php-mysql is needed by psa-php5-configurator-1.7.0-cos7.build1708180212.17.x86_64']

It's also true that I'm working server-wide with PHP 7.1 and probably something has been uninstalled by php.

php-mysql is no longer valid for me and all other PHP components are also from PHP 7.1.

How can Plesk update still be done?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Alexander

I think I remember a discussion here where someone said that Plesk needs PHP 5.x functions and cannot be run on PHP 7.x. In your case it is clear that the software requires the MySQL extension, but in PHP 7.x there is only MySQLi.

Here is a possible solution that you could try:
