PHP 5.3.2 and PHP 5.2.13 get an update

Updated, thanks!

Have you ever considered doing packages for apache as well ? Still stuck on 2.2.9 on my lenny install (yes I know I could compile but bleh, dotdeb packages FTW!)

Hi,

I’m new to Linux and have a Ubuntu server. I’ve added the links to my repositories but can anyone tell me how to install PHP 5.3.2?

I’ve used tasksel but it doesn’t appear in any of the lists?

@Steve Davies : I’ve just published some more information on how to install PHP 5.3 on this page :

/instructions/

Sorry, could you do the same for MySQL?

Basically, I want a LAMP server with the latest versions on.

Just a request for : php5-memcache (and php5-memcached maybe) php5-apc

Other (I don’t use really but could be good): php5-pspell The following packages have unmet dependencies. php5-apc: Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.13-0.dotdeb.1) but 5.3.2-1 is to be installed E: Broken packages using : php53.dotdeb.org

What do you mean by make a request?

(I know this isn’t a forum so apologies)

Basically, I was looking for a guide or a 1,2,3 of how to install a LAMP setup using specific versions of MySQL and PHP when I found this site.

This is just that PHP Debian Package are not build on DotDeb repository, so I can’t install this “properly”.

But I’m a weird case, having Debian “official” sources.list in SID and dotdeb for PHP 5.3.

I know this is huge work to maintain dotdeb, it’s just to ask them.

Sorry, my English isn’t really good, maybe it’s just a missunderstanding.

First, add the appropriate lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all deb http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all

Then, use a decent package manager (such as aptitude, dselect or synaptic) to install all the packages you want (mysql-server-5.1, php5, php5-apc, php5-memcache…). Dependencies will automatically be satisfied by using the most recent packages (Dotdeb’s ones if you’re on Debian stable, aka “Lenny”).

für phpmyadmin gibt es genauso Probleme!

Hi,

I don’t know if this is the right place for the following question. I am about to upgrade from etch to Lenny (I now, I’m late :-/) but want to use PHP 5.2 again with Lenny. Am I right, that using

deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all

in the source.list will prevent that PHP will be upgraded to 5.3 as well? I guess, using

deb http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all deb-src http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all

(as seen at: /instructions/ )would upgrade to PHP5.3 as well?

Thank you in advance!

Hello,

Please also provide these packages : apache2 lighttpd nginx

Thank you for your great work

Damn your php lack this patch: http://tekrat.com/downloads/bits/apc_lazy_php53.patch any chance of getting it included (no performance lost w/out APC +20% gain with)

Patch Details: http://tekrat.com/2009/03/10/apc-lazy-loading-initial-support/

Feel free to contact me via the email attached to this comment.

@SplitIce : thanks for this link/patch. I’ll take a look at it to evaluate its maintainability. I also have to preserve existing installation’s integrity and performance.

If I include it, I’ll announce it.

Ok thanks mate, hopefully you save me having to compile my own when you do such a great job already.

On my centos ‘crappy lappy’ (400mhz processor makes it ideal for performance testing)

I tested the patch without APC (lol 32mb ram makes it impossible) and didn’t notice any real performance difference between that and a non-patched compiled version.

If you need any assistance let me know.

Hi Guys,

When I try to update the packages I get the following error:

Err http://php53.dotdeb.org stable/all php5-common 5.3.2-0.dotdeb.1 404 Not Found

Is it a file server currently down or something else ?

Thanks for the great work !

There seems to be a problem with PHP 5.3.2 : cookies are not working properly in some cases, for example when running PhpBB 3.0.5 (and probably other versions also). The reason seems to be that the $_COOKIE super global variable is not always populated with received cookies, and the most visible effect is that the users of my phpBB forum are not able to use the “automatic logon” feature of phpBB. However, a simple test case with the setcookie function works properly, so I don’t know exactly what kind of cookie can trigger the bug. Downgrading to phpBB 5.2.13 or lower effectively fix the problem.

first of all: Merci beaucoup pour ce terrible travail de garder à jour php et mysql, vraiment, vous êtes génial!! :D ( just saying thank you very much ).

However i’ve got a failing apache with the dotdeb php 5.2.13.1 packages, apache crashes with these notice in my logs : [notice] child pid exit signal Segmentation fault (11) i saw there were similar problems with the 5.2.10 packages, but i havent seen any solutions yet… please help!!, any hints would be very helpfull

using: apache2-mpm-prefork 2.9-10+lenny7 apache2-utils 2.2.9-10+lenny7 apache2.2-common 2.2.9-10+lenny7 libapache2-mod-php5 5.2.13-0.dotdeb.1

I upgraded my server to php 5.2.4 but then it started having problems, so I upgraded to 5.2.13, restarted the server and things were faster again. But then things slowed down again. I was wondering if you could help me figure out the issue. My site is at http://mulyoo.com/.

I am using ubuntu 8.0.4 with 64bit.

@Joshua Parker : consider those tips :

• watch your logfiles. If there’s none, set up PHP, Apache, MySQL to be as verbose as needed. Watch MySQL slow queries, queries without indexes, Apache response time, PHP warning and errors
• monitor your platform with things (load average, memory, disks, latencies, mysql queries…)
• profile your code with tools such as Xdebug
• install an opcode cache such as php5-apc.

Hello,

I added dotdeb on my sources list and tried to update php from 5.2.0+dfsg-8+etch16 to 5.2.13-0.dotdeb.1 (for symfony requires Ver>5.2.1), but I keep getting dependency issues like this:

libapache2-mod-php5: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7-1) but 2.3.6.ds1-13etch10+b1 is to be installed Depends: libdb4.6 but it is not installable Depends: libkrb53 (>= 1.6.dfsg.2) but 1.4.4-7etch6 is to be installed Depends: libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8f-5) but 0.9.8c-4etch4 is to be installed Depends: libxml2 (>= 2.6.28) but 2.6.27.dfsg-6 is to be installed Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.13-0.dotdeb.1) but 5.2.0+dfsg-8+etch16 is to be installed.

Am I missing something ? should I further update my sources.list ? Currently it looks like this:

deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian etch main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-volatile etch/volatile main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-security etch/updates main contrib non-free deb http://autoinstall.plesk.com/debian/PSA9 etch all deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all

This is temporary appended by Autoinstaller for

specify source of product’s packages for APT.

deb http://autoinstall.plesk.com/debian/PSA_9.5.2 etch all

(running etch 4 with plesk 9 installed)

Thank you for helping the newbie that I am ! Should it not be the right place to post, feel free to redirect me :)

Hello Guillaume.

Sorry for the late reply…

I had to download and install packages manually (this is for a rented virtual server => upgrade to lenny is not an option), but it did the job.

Thanks a lot for the awesome work on the packages, and for following up on issues !

All the best…

It seems I’m having the same problem as geronimoh (segfaults), but with the PHP 5.3.2 version.

However Zend optimizer doesn’t seem to be activated.

Any hint on how to track the source of the problem?

@Mikhail : please try to fetch pecl-dbase from SVN : http://svn.php.net/repository/pecl/dbase/trunk/

Then, use dh-make-pecl to build your own package : /2008/09/25/how-to-package-php-extensions-by-yourself/

Yes it is !! Not that I am putting any pressure :)

Merci pour ton super boulot.

I can’t get any package from dotdeb repository. apt-get update returns this log :

W: Failed to fetch http://php53.dotdeb.org/dists/stable/Release Unable to find expected entry all/binary-armel/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)

How can it be ?
