Updating PHP from 5.2.6 to 5.3.2?

[s2000tim]

Hey folks,
I want to update my PHP Version from 5.2.6 to 5.3.2. I read that ispCP doesn't work properly with 5.3.x. Is that right? I need the new version of PHP because of the new functions.

With php 5.3.1 i havn't Problems.

Thanks for this fast reply.

So I can simply update PHP without having any problems after updating?
Can I do this for MySQL as well?

I don''t know if you have Problems after update. I didn't upgrade php. I used a new Squeeze Installation.

with ispcp - not sure, but with other apps - you might have a big problem, in my case that was wordpress used by many clients

which distro?
php 5.3 has deprecated things (ereg function for ex) used by wordpress, so, it shouldn't run:

If it's still working - then you have patched php 5.3, not vanilla...

Take a look at gOOvER signature

So he uses the dotdeb Version maybe ?

most recent version of php on debian is 5.2.6

http://packages.debian.org/lenny/php5

I guess dotdeb is used, but according to them they don't have any special patches so old options can be used, no...

[gOOvER]

Nop, the signature is old I use the orginal Debian Squeeze Packages
