TurnKey Linux PHP Upgrade Script

Overview

This enhanced script is tailor-made for upgrading PHP versions on servers running TurnKey Linux. It is a critical tool for maintaining and updating PHP versions on these servers, ensuring both compatibility and security. The script now includes support for various web servers, anticipating the transition to PHP-FPM. The original script, developed by JedMeister, has been significantly modified and improved by Marcos Méndez from PopSolutions.

Features

  • Interactive selection of the new PHP version to install.
  • Automatically detects and upgrades the PHP version, retaining existing modules.
  • Handles configuration updates for multiple web servers, including Apache, Nginx, and Lighttpd.
  • Prepares for the transition to PHP-FPM.
  • Checks for compatibility of PHP modules with the selected new version.

Supported TurnKey Linux Applications

This script is compatible with a range of TurnKey Linux applications that use PHP, such as:

  • WordPress
  • Joomla
  • Drupal
  • LAMP Stack
  • LAPP Stack
  • Magento
  • PrestaShop
  • SilverStripe
  • PHPList
  • OrangeHRM
  • MediaWiki
  • Moodle
  • Zurmo
  • SugarCRM
  • ProcessWire
  • SuiteCRM
  • NextCloud
  • And others that rely on PHP

Usage

  1. Download or copy the script to your TurnKey Linux server.
  2. Make the script executable: chmod +x tkl-upgrade-php.sh.
  3. Run the script as root or using sudo: ./tkl-upgrade-php.sh.
  4. Follow the interactive prompts to select the desired PHP version.

Note: It's highly recommended to back up your server before running the script.

Web Server Compatibility

  • The script automatically detects and configures the PHP module for Apache.
