Would your clients like to have multiple versions of PHP?

Hi,

Same here, we will need to disable it.

Thanks.

[admin]

of course we don need use this in CL, it can be disabled? We have own php config

Uau, this would be perfect, its what we need for all clients.

As always, CloudLinux is the best thing in the world for Hosting Providers.

Hm, ok, so I will need wait another month...
I need php 5.2 because of moving clients to the new servers.

[iseletsk]

We are first going to release 5.3 & 5.4, but I think by the end of October, we should have php5.2 -- and possibly php5.1 (as long as it is secure).

[miron]

Just excellent Igor !

Will be there option to select PHP v5.2?

We are moving everything to the new servers where is PHP v5.3 default version, so many clients probably will need option to change PHP back to v5.2.

Yes, its just ideas not requirements for the first versions…

For the first versions just being able to change PHP version will be great, lots of customers are likely to contact us before playing with the settings and if they do only their version of PHP will be affected and they will be able to fix it by selecting the correct options.

Maybe a "reset" button could be good too so a user could go back to the serverwide default modules (I dont think a reset for PHP version would be necessary.

I love the idea of being able to only select the bare minimum options for PHP by default and allowing users to choose their prerequisits

[iseletsk]

We carry all the dependencies, like if module need some extra shared library -- it will be there. And yes, you are right, we should make some options mutually exclusive. But we will add it in the "later" versions.

[clm]

Maybe there are not actually any modules that the user will be able to define that will need other modules to work. There arent many modules in easy apache that have dependencies.

From current Easy Apache :

CurlSSL disables Curl

PDO MySQL enables PDO

First thing first -- get this to work all together
Then we will deal with moving accounts from server to server and adding features.
Though we made sure that if you move account from server1 to server2 that already uses PHP selector, the options stick. Backups should also maintain the options.
Of course I am pretty sure that once it is live -- we will see ton of things that needs to be fixed.

[iseletsk]

Are there any such modules? Could you give me an example?

[clm]

Looks nice

Will you be managing also when a module is required for another one to work ?

If we get this installed, we would like to have a way to migrate accounts from a cPanel server running PHP 5.2 to a server with a default PHP version of PHP 5.3 and have the migrated accounts set automaticaly to php5.2

We could add a file to the account before migrating this this could make it easier to implement this possibility.

Otherwise maybe it would be possible to change the default during the migration without changing PHP version for accounts already installed…

If this makes it quickly to stable or almost stable (just a few interface glitches) in the next few months then we will be using it for our next server.

[iseletsk]

We are very close to getting first beta out. All you can see here already works.

We
e also waiting as [S]im[/S]patiently as possible

This feature will allow us to get rid of a few older servers without breaking any scripts as well as allow our customers to not have to wait for a new server before going to a new major PHP version.

Would love to hear about this asap
