Ok, think I get it. I see that when I do a phpinfo it IS showing 4.4.1 as what I am using. But doing php -v from command line gets me 4.4.0, which means I need to make sure the path is pointed to the new location for locally run scripts.

Now my include directories are showing both /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin - should I nix one of those since the older php is still there? -- edit -- sorry, see now most are symlinking...

Yes, that's exactly it. It doesn't affect scripts run normally through apache.

I seem to find php 4.4.1 also causes problems on phpMyAdmin.

Export of a database does not complete properly or gives a "Missing parameters" error.

Ok. Thanks. I'll wait.

I also have problem on squirrelmail after update php to version 4.4.1

It's not CPanel that's the issue. It's PHP itself.

[Radio_Head]

I am saying

after latest easyapache now I have 2 version of php

/usr/bin/php PHP 4.4.1 (cgi)
/usr/local/bin/php PHP 4.4.0 (cli)

Why ?

And some client which was using zend opt. has having problems with his scripts ..

I upgraded to zend 2.5.1a but it didn't fix the problem ..

It seems that latest easyapache broken a lot of things ...and we were not adviced about the problems with zend ..

[silversurfer]

I know what you are saying. The reason is that in the past, PHP will compile both CGI and CLI version. But for some reason, in the new version it only compiles either the CGI or the CLI version (not both). /usr/bin/ is the CGI copy and /usr/local/bin is the CLI version.

As such, the compile from previous installations still remains, and only one version is updated leading to 2 different versions.

If you use PHP as an apache mod, that will have been upgraded. So no worries. And if you are using PHP as CGI, the CGI version will have been updated, once again no effect.

It will only be an issue if you try to run it in command line.

[chirpy]

Indeed. Which has been explained at some length in this thread already

all php 4.4.1 problem could be fixed with one of these php versions http://snaps.php.net/ should fix these problems.

Chirpy , may we have one of them on easyapache ? Can you forward this request to darkorb ?

Yes I could open a ticket or bug , but it's really urgent.

A new and more accurate bug report was opened over a week ago regarding this problem.
