Topic: How does one Upgrade PHP??

[hemps]

I have looked and cannot find how to upgrade PHP to the latest one, or at least 4.2 for phpWebsite to work? I am running SME 6

Thanks

Keep searching! I don't have the links with me, but I've done it my self recently to 4.3.6. One of the contribs has RPMs and a HOWTO. You just rpm -Uvh the rpms and then redo a couple of setup things so that your web mail keeps working.

The rpms I used were called:

php-4.3.6-1db.i386.rpm
php-imap-4.3.6-1db.i386.rpm
php-mysql-4.3.6-1db.i386.rpm

Try searching for those names? There were forum threads also. Good luck, whole thing took about 10mins once I found the HOWTO (not the easiest thing to do in this place!)

I found the HOWTO, but its for SME 5.6, I am using 6. I am getting the error when I do the rpm -Uvh * with all the correct packages..

Dependancy failed
/usr/bin/php     ........needed by horde-XX

Thanks

Hi,
When I did it I used these rpms:

php-4.3.6-1db.i386.rpm
php-imap-4.3.6-1db.i386.rpm
php-ldap-4.3.6-1db.i386.rpm
php-mysql-4.3.6-1db.i386.rpm

Rishi may have forgot he used php-ldap-4.3.6-1db.i386.rpm as well as the other 3 rpms. I am not an expert but ldap may have something to do with horde.
I am pretty sure I followed the 5.6 howto to upgrade my version 6 (custom iso)and I didn't have any problems.
Regards,
Del
