Upgrading from PHP 5.1.6 -> 5.3 failing

S

Guest
I tried upgrading via the control panel to 5.3 but it keeps failing. In case this matters, this is a test box that had 9.3 prior and I went straight to 10.1.1 without incident.

What do I need to do to get this to work? Thanks.

I had the same problem. I don't know how to run plesk 10's auto configure script, so I didn't try your fix. Waiting on instruction... running RHEL 64 bit, Plesk 10.1.1 that's about 30 minutes old; just migrated all of my accounts and then ran into this issue after trying to switch to PHP 5.3 in the product installer. Now, plesk is broken. Great.

I had a similar issue with upgrading my PHP to 5.3. I had to manually remove the PHP packages:

php-pdo-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
php-ldap-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
php-gd-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
php-common-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
php-cli-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
php-imap-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
php-mysql-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
php-xml-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
php-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
php-mbstring-5.2.10-1.el5.centos

And install the "php53" packages:

php53-mysql-5.3.3-1.el5
php53-gd-5.3.3-1.el5
php53-common-5.3.3-1.el5
php53-pdo-5.3.3-1.el5
php53-xml-5.3.3-1.el5
php53-imap-5.3.3-1.el5
php53-5.3.3-1.el5

The problem is, Plesk simply queries the RPM database for the package "php". RedHat is now packaging PHP 5.3 as "php53", not just "php". So, to make Plesk play happy with PHP 5.3, I had to create a blank RPM and install it:

php-5.3.3-1

I hope this helps!
 
Hi Matthew,

I've been trying this out for the past 1-2 weeks!
May I know how do you create a blank RPM?
 
You will want to create your RPM using an under-privileged account (i.e. not root).

First, as root:

yum install rpm-build
Click to expand...

Then as your under-privileged account:

mkdir -p ~/rpm/{BUILD,RPMS,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS,tmp}
Click to expand...

Then create a ~/.rpmmacros file and include the following information:

%packager Your Name
%_topdir /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/rpm
%_tmppath /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/rpm/tmp
Click to expand...

Then create tarball and put a README file in it:

cd ~/rpm/SOURCES
echo "To make Plesk 10 happy" > README-phpstub

# tar the pkg.
tar -czvf phpstub-5.3.3.tar.gz README-phpstub
Click to expand...

Now create the php.spec file

cd ~/rpm/SPECS

touch php.spec
Click to expand...

Put the following text in your php.spec file:

Summary: php53-5.3.3-1.el5 stub
Name: php
Version: 5.3.3
Release: 1
Source0: phpstub-5.3.3.tar.gz
License: GPL
Group: Development/Languages
BuildArch: noarch
BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-buildroot
Requires: php53
%description
PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it
easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages. PHP also
offers built-in database integration for several commercial and
non-commercial database management systems, so writing a
database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common
use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts.
%prep
%setup -q -c
%files
%doc README-phpstub
Click to expand...

Then build the RPM:

rpmbuild -ba php.spec
Click to expand...

Then, as root:

rpm -Uvh /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/rpm/RPMS/noarch/php-5.3.3-1.noarch.rpm
Click to expand...

Stop and Restart Plesk:

service psa stopall
service psa start
Click to expand...

Login to your admin panel and click on Settings then Server Components. You should see next to php the version number: 5.3.3-1

Cheers,

Matthew
 
Also, make sure when you remove your php packages prior to installing php53 packages you use the --nodeps option. For example:

rpm -e --nodeps php php-common php-mysql
Click to expand...

This will prevent RPM from complaining about dependencies.

Cheers!
 
Hi Matthew,

would you be able to give an example in command line, how to you remove this?

php-pdo-5.2.10-1.el5.centos
is it?

yum remove php-pdo-5.2.10-1.el5.centos --nodeps
 
It worked! I didn't create a blank RPM.
After removing the the previous php, i typed,

yum install php53*

Thank you so much!
 
Hello Matthew,

Nevertheless, I've followed your instructions.
Created my RPM using an under-privileged account.

I'm having this prompt on my plesk 10.1 panel.

Error: New files of configuration for Apache web server were not built due to errors in configuration templates. The detailed error message was e-mailed to you, so please check the e-mail, fix the errors, and click here to retry generating configuration.

Would you have any idea why?
 
Now I've got a new error,
after creating a new domain name, I'm prompted,

Error: No secure shell available
 
Hmm ... honestly, I'm not sure about either issue. I can only think that it would report "No secure shell available" if you removed the SSHTerm package. It could be related to your previous post:

It worked! I didn't create a blank RPM.
After removing the the previous php, i typed,

yum install php53*
Click to expand...

I never recommend installing packages by using and asterisk ... funny things can happen. I always explicitly state what packages I want yum or rpm to install for me.

As for Plesk giving you the error:

Error: New files of configuration for Apache web server were not built due to errors in configuration templates. The detailed error message was e-mailed to you, so please check the e-mail, fix the errors, and click here to retry generating configuration.
Click to expand...

It could be because you installed the blank PHP package. Did something stop working even though you reported that everything was working after installing php53 via yum?
 
Sigh... I reported too early. Guess I've got to re-try everything again. this time without the asterisk.
Thanks for replying! :)
 
Hello!

Parallels have helped me solve the issue.
below is the their reply.

Issue caused because psa got corrupted, so we repaired the psa.
I repaired the psa by following command.
"/usr/local/psa/bootstrapper/pp10.10.1-bootstrapper/bootstrapper.sh repair".
 
My only problem with your Atomic RPMs is that I believe the PHP 5.3 ones necessitate an update to MySQL 5.1, which is a step that a lot of our customers are wary of due to the 5.0->5.1 shift requiring a change in the data file format.

The same thing happened when the 5.2 RPMs first hit the Atomic repo which also required this update. I believe this was fixed though?

On a server currently with the Atomic PHP 5.2 (and mysql-server-5.0.77-4.el5_5.3) - trying to run "yum update php" (which takes us to 5.3) shows the conflicts at http://pastie.org/1767961
 
Am getting "Missing Dependency: php-common = 5.2.17-1.el5.art is needed by package ..." for most packages
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance...
