Thanks for this update.
waiting for lenny packages.

Thanks for the update.

However, after the upgrade php was not running anymore, and needed to be started.

a quand 5.3.6 pour lenny SVP ?

Thanks for the update and for the warnings. I need to schedule a maintenance for this one 🙂

Thank you for the update of php5-intl! That saved a lot of headaches! =))))

Guillaume, have you investigated into the does-not-restart and conffile problems?

Deprecated: Function eregi() is deprecated in /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/select_lang.lib.php on line 146
Deprecated: Function eregi() is deprecated in /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/select_lang.lib.php on line 146
…

is there any chance that the phpmyadmin package will also be updated?

currently its still 2.11.8.1-5+lenny8 on lenny!
with squeeze its automatically 3.3.7deb5
but this is not the case with lenny and the dot deb package list (and php5.3.6)

Upgraded to this today for Debian Lenny. Getting a lot of errors in my php5-fpn logs for specific scripts. For example, on script renders:

WARNING: [pool www] child [pid] exited on signal 11 (SIGSEGV) after [seconds] seconds from start

For another, I’m getting errors like:

WARNING: [pool www] child [pid] exited with code 1 after [seconds] seconds from start

My pool configuration is exactly the same. nginx logs just give the standard “…recv() failed (104: Connection reset by peer) while reading response header from upstream…” error. I’m using a unix socket.

Anyone else having these issues on sarge after upgrading?

Hi, sorry to ask it here but is there a way to check for the compilation command used for detdeb php archives ?
I actually need to check the options used for php 5.2.12 for Etch, there’s nothing in the phpinfo page.
Thanks

Thanks @bretticus the rules file is just what I needed 🙂

Does this new package contains xcache 1.3.1? Also, would it be possible to switch over to APC from xcache at my end? Any tutorial for it?

Thanks for the updates.

Hi,
Actually while updating the php using apt-get php doesn’t run as apache module. If you are free for few mins & I am seeking for help to fix my webserver. Price negotiable but please be reasonable. I have provided my contact email while making this post.
Thank you.

ok, I’ve been using fastcgi for a long time and been able to upgrade without problems up to this version…

should i do an apt-get install php5-fpm ?

I’ll try this tomorrow in dry-run to see what would happen.

Thanks for your help on a day off 😉

I hope you all enjoyed a happy Easter!!

Also, I have this lines in my source list.

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

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

All your previous updates went smooth but this one is giving me hard time. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks Guillaume 🙂

Alex, am I happy to help you out.
I haven’t done the upgrade on my server, I just spotted the problem and looked at it in dry run… sounds like you have forced the upgrade?

Hope it’s ok with you Guillame if I take the job?
If you want to do it just let me know 🙂

Here’s my email antony (at) cantoute.com

Hi I tried to install but it looks like there is an issue.

Description: MHASH module for php5
This package provides a module for mhash functions in PHP scripts.
.
PHP5 is an HTML-embedded scripting language. Much of its syntax is borrowed
from C, Java and Perl with a couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown
in. The goal of the language is to allow web developers to write dynamically
generated pages quickly. This version of PHP5 was built with the Suhosin patch.

I guess its dependency issue in 5.3.6? I am such a tard. If anyone can help me it would be great!

Antony,

First of all thanks for helping.

QQ: Then why during installing, it says:

The following packages are BROKEN:
php5-common php5-mhash

If it’s not installed then why it says broken?

I am using this to install:
ptitude install libapache2-mod-php5 php5 php5-common php5-curl php5-dev php5-gd \php5-imagick php5-mcrypt php5-memcache php5-mhash php5-m ysql php5-pspell php5-snmp \php5-sqlite php5-xmlrpc php5-xsl

Big thanks to Antony and to you also Guillaume.

Hi,

So on an install running dotdeb php5.3.5 on apache2 fcgi, to upgrade to php5.3.6 here is what I did and seems to work so far

~# apt-get update

~# apt-get remove php5
(this is a pseudo package… no files in there. Perhaps do in in – -dry-run to amke sure on your system no other package is taken out)

then
~# apt-get install php5-fpm
(this upgrade most of the stuff there… apt-get upgrade should have done it no?… )

~# apt-get upgrade
(this finally upgraded php-pear and php5-dev)

As I use the apache2 fcgi module, actually I didn’t need to install php5-fpm, but it now seems I can’t remove it:

~#apt-get remove php5-fpm
[…]
Suppression de php5-fpm …
/var/lib/dpkg/info/php5-fpm.postrm: line 23: dpkg-maintscript-helper: command not found
dpkg : erreur de traitement de php5-fpm (–remove) :
le sous-processus post-removal script a retourné une erreur de sortie d’état 127
Des erreurs ont été rencontrées pendant l’exécution :
php5-fpm
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

This php5-fpm looks like the right way to run php in fast-cgi, but on a server in production is not what I’m going to test right now.

~# /etc/init.d/php5-fpm stop

things seem to be working smoothly.

Thanks Guillaume for all you do for us 🙂

Fixed my problem.
Just downloaded the script from http://debomatic.debian.net/natty/natty/usr/bin/dpkg-maintscript-helper
and put it in /usr/bin

A little fussing later and all is well!

Just to follow up, i got the same segfault errors as Bretticus and downgrading to 5.3.5 seems to resolve the issue

With regard to php5-intl.
I tried to install php5-intl. It adds libicu44{a} and requires php5-common 5.3.6-6~dotdeb.1
php5-common on my system is 5.3.6-6~dotdeb.0
The proposed solution is to remove all my existing php packages (!):
1) aegir
2) aegir-hostmaster
3) aegir-provision
4) drush
5) libapache2-mod-php5
6) php-pear
7) php5
8) php5-apc
9) php5-cli
10) php5-curl
11) php5-fpm
12) php5-gd
13) php5-imap
14) php5-mcrypt
15) php5-mysql
16) php5-suhosin
Obviously, i’d rather not do that.

I just recently updated my lenny to squeeze. Can it be that my dotdeb references in sources.list below are wrong?

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

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

Thanks in advance.

@Guillaume

yes most likely, as last night the only thing that fixed it was removing the memcache module, bizarrely it had been working well until we started loading the server up that afternoon

BTW APC 3.1.8 is now out, and marked stable 😉

Hi, could you please start building php5-memcached with the –enable-memcached-igbinary option.

Also, it would be nice to have a php5-igbinary package in the first place. I just had to make one for myself.

Thanks!

I removed php-5.3.6 and clean install php-5.2.17
but it looks like there is an issue Bade Gateway
Read error: Connection reset by peer X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.17

Hi, please help me. I update my PHP from 5.2 to PHP 5.3 on Lenny, but i don’t know, How I can add or reconf. php extensions pdo_mysql.
I try it over pecl and phpize, but it not working.
Thanks

Hi Guillaume,

thanks for your repo. they allow me to use php-fpm and few other things w/ lenny.

but i have the problem i read in this very page’s comment about dpkg-maintscript-helper. even if i installed dpkg-maintscript-helper manually (by wgetting the script) i still have error on php-fpm.

it basically “breaks” the updates even if system is fortunately working.

so my qeustions/requests are:

when you fix this wtih php-fpm?

will you add 3.0.6 to php-memcache?

thank you.
cga

:wq

Hi Guillaume,

thanks for the updates, i’ll wait 5.3.7 since i’m stuck with lenny for now.

great news php-memcachec too.

cheers

cga

@bretticus, @Anthony
Do your scripts use preg_match()? I’ve found, that increasing ulimit stack size (by command: ulimit -s unlimited, by file: /etc/security/limits.conf) fixes problems with segfaults.

I have problem with update on debian new version of php

Guillaume: Sorry, I didn’t want to sound so demanding. I’m very happy for the work you put in. I just have this bad habit of reading all the security related stuff in the changelogs and it scares me every time. Thanks for the heads up on crypt() problems.

Hi, Guillaume.
I just ran an “apt-get update” to one of my servers and I saw you updated PHP.
So I installed the new PHP version. But now php -v give this warning:

PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘/usr/lib/php5/20090626/memcached.so’ – /usr/lib/php5/20090626/memcached.so: undefined symbol: libmemcached_check_configuration in Unknown on line 0

Of course this has something to do with memcached. Is this supported on your version of PHP? I never had problems with your deb and memached.
Thank you.

Never mind.
My comment wasn’t a rant 😉 I just wanted to be useful someway.
Thank you for your great work!
Ferdinando

Like Kosta, I am also running into the same error when i run the upgrade. Any ideas what the cause might be?

I also cannot install other packages.

Never did it before. what command should I run to install php-xml-util from pear?

What can I do to get rid of the error, when using apt-get?

Thanks for your assistance?

I run into a similar error.

You might want to run `apt-get -f install’ to correct these:

Depends: php-xml-util (>= 1.1.1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt-get -f install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).

The problem I am running into is that apt-get will not remove or install any other package due to the dependecy issue regarding php-xml-serializer: Depends: php-xml-parser (>= 1.2.6) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: php-xml-util (>= 1.1.1) but it is not going to be installed

I hate that when a file is also in another package and apt isn’t smart enough to either install that file or ignore it.

What version of debian are you using ?

For squeeze php-xml-util is just a virtual package provided by php-pear so its not actually used to install anything and only a reference.

Just an update, for those that might run into the same problem. I found a solution by upgrading from debian 5 (lenny) to 6 (squeeze). Upgrade information is available here: http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/releasenotes
