Topic: Php needs to be updated (Read 936 times)

Oh, the perils of VPS!  I have to update/upgrade php. I'll be closing the site tomorrow to take full backups of the site and all the databases. I have to uninstall the php version that I have now before I can install the new one. I don't know what time I'll get started, but I'll post about a half-hour in advance to let you know. I've never done this before, so wish me luck.

OMG! Going to break it already?  Good luck, I'm sure everything will go smoothly. If it doesn't, I volunteer TDW to fix it. He loves that I expect him to be able to work programming miracles.

 good luck and I will try to help if something screws up, of course I can only help to a point  Should go smoothly though, may need a server restart (apache) if it uses the dll version.

I installed php okay the first time, then had to uninstall it to install eAccelerator...then uninstalled that because it didn't work with Zend...running a server is turning out to be harder work than I would've thought.

Let us know when you start so we can pull up a chair, grab a few snacks, and watch. Will there be fireworks?

Sorry; no fireworks. The whole site will be down for however long it takes.

I'll be starting in about half an hour. I want to be sure I know exactly what needs to be done, and have some more coffee while I work up the courage.
