Thanks a lot!

Update was smooth and without any issues.

Merci, any news when the php 5.6 will be available ?

5.6 would be great, waiting for it, too. 🙂

Since updating to 5.5.17, we have problems with horde mail latest and with owncloud apps – on two different servers, and on both servers everything is 10 to 50 x slower than before. I am looking for error messages, but heads up – there might be a big problem with 5.5.17

lots of timeouts, db connections unexpectedly lost … pages not resolving – both servers are running latest apache 2.2

Having issues with MYSQL_CLIENT_SSL if you run script with cli it will hang. I’ve switched from php5-mysqlnd to php5-mysql and works fine, switch back and the same issue arrises. I’d use php5-mysql but always receive the known headers error.

No issues with php5 5.5.16
