Citeren Simon Wilson <si...@simonandkate.net>:Using the IUS repo I can fairly simply upgrade to 5.3.25, or to 5.4.15, and still be within a repo-based RPM environment. Both versions were released May 2013.Question though, what effect does that have on all the pear and pecl modules that are installed? I imagine if I stick within php 5.3 probably not much?Indeed. They will all use the same API, so as long as you stick with PHP 5.3 any PECL module compiled can be used.But what about if I go to php 5.4?You'll need to compile the extensions again after upgrading to 5.4, since the API will have changed (which will also be reported if you attempt to use an extension compiled for an earlier version).pecl install -f <extension1> <extension2> ... <extensionx> After restarting the webserver, you should be good to go.
Thanks Arjen - to clarify, if I go to 5.4 would I need to reinstall all pear packages as well? That could be painful. Or just pecl?
I don't want to break things just because I don't understand the relationship between installed pear and pecl modules, with the system's version of PHP.Remember to also upgrade the -devel packages and remove the old ones.
No worries, thanks Arjen. Simon. ----- End message from Arjen de Korte <arjen+ho...@de-korte.org> ----- -- Simon Wilson M: 0400 12 11 16
