Well I ran into a similar issue.

Found out that I had to manually uninstall the PHP package using

# rpm -e php-4.3.8-sp.rh73.2

after I did that, the autoinstaller worked fine.

I ran into this solution strictly by accident. Hope this helps.

Thank you for reply.

Using
#php -v ---> i get
PHP 4.3.9 (cli) (built: Oct 25 2004 21:02:07)
Copyright (c) 1997-2004 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v1.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2004 Zend Technologies

So my php ver is PHP 4.3.9
And this is part from the error i get
------
error: failed dependencies:
php = 4.3.9-sp.rh73.1 is needed by php-ldap-4.3.9-sp.rh73.1
-----
Well the version is correct, but it is asking for it as it is needed by php-ldap.

Any way your advice is to uninstall the php then let the updater install it as it autoupdate the plesk??
Thank you.

 

[next2thebay]

Yes, that is exactly what I am advising.

Is it possible to remove PHP without breaking Plesk?

 

[next2thebay]

I was able to do it on mine and it seemed to work fine.

 

[lo_ai]

True, plesk operates with PHP, if I unistall PHP plesk may break.
Isnt thtere another solution but to unistall PHP?

Regards all.

I have the same problem and I tried the removal of PHP as indicated by Next2theBay, but it didn't work it said I didn't have the package installed. Mine is v.4.2.

Is there another way to remove PHP? I can afford to remove it since my server is new. I want to have everything updated before I load the sites.

have you looked for the dependency? php-ldap-4.3.10-sp.rh73.1

How did you initially install your PHP and how have you been updating it???

My PHP came with the box. I didn't install it myself.

If you are not an admin I would contact the person that installed it and request an upgrade.

If you know command line stuff, then try and upgrade using YUM and A.R.T.'s rpms.

Other than that I can't really give you upgrading 101.... I've never touched the box and don't really know what's going on in there.

I am an admin, but this is the first time I used Plesk and ran into this issue. Great first impression! Now I know the issue has to do with PHP so at least the obstical is seen. Or, I would be in the dark and would have gone back to CPanel.

I saw a trick in another thread and I will try it.

Thanks anyway!

Solved.

In case others had the same issue and wanted to know it, I didn't need to remove PHP but run the up2date,

# up2date php-pgsql

Then, Plesk autoupdate runs through successfully.

This is not upgrade 101 issue, but a bug with Plesk 7.52's autoupdate.
