  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Upgrade default PHP

Bogdan1

Regular Pleskian
Hello,

How could I upgrade PHP 5.3(default php version /etc/php.ini) to 5.5 or 5.6, without errors after ... ?
I'm using multiple php versions but composer every time calls default php.ini in etc directory.

OS: Centos 6

Thanks
 
Hello Bogdan,

Do you use Plesk 12.5 and our new integration with composer applications in panel UI?
If not, I strongly recommend to upgrade Plesk and try it.

If you use composer from command line, you should add correct path to php binary in PATH env.

For example, my system php is 5.5:
$ php -v
PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.11 (cli) (built: Jul 2 2015 15:23:08)
$ which php
/usr/bin/php
But I want to use php 5.6 installed by Plesk:
$ /opt/plesk/php/5.6/bin/php -v
PHP 5.6.13 (cli) (built: Sep 8 2015 11:53:39)
$ export PATH=/opt/plesk/php/5.6/bin:$PATH
$ php -v
PHP 5.6.13 (cli) (built: Sep 8 2015 11:53:39)
$ which php
/opt/plesk/php/5.6/bin/php

Thank you,

Plesk 12.5 is not released yet, it's only RTM with some bugs I'm right?

Hi Bogdan1,

if you already have Plesk on your server, then you should use:

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/autoinstaller --all-versions


For more options with the autoinstaller utility, please use the command:

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/autoinstaller --help
