Problem upgrading phpv7.1 to v7.3

[billmcollam]

I can't seem to get this upgrade working. (XID vtcchh) 1 error occurred: Error #1: The system failed to apply the “PHP” version to “*********.com”: Cpanel::Exception::IO::ChownError/(XID k5k9ec)

Context: I'm migrating from CentOS6 to CentOS7. I created a new vps server and used the transfer tool to transfer all configs/accounts. I noticed that php7.1 was already EOL. So i've been trying to upgrade it. Steps taken:

• Ran EA4 to provision PHP7.3 and all necessary extensions
• EA4 noted that I had to also provision ea-php73-php-fpm (the production server uses PHP-FPM). So I did that... success
• Then I used multiPHP manager to move my domain (only one domain on server) to php7.3 - but I get a huge indecipherable error message (below). It appears to be some kind of permission issue ... but I can't make out what and I'm logged into WHM as root.

Note that I havent yet enabled php-fpm as I figured it was easier to get it working without that - then configure FPM later.

Advice appreciated.

RESOLVED - as suggested in a previous post (June 19, 2019) I renamed all .htaccess files made the upgrade (easy peasy) and restored .htaccess. All good. I did look at the permissions and ownership of all the .htaccess files and all appeared fine .. so i'm not clear in the root cause.

Glad you were able to resolve the issue and thanks for updating here on how you resolved it. The error does normally occur when the permissions or ownership prohibit the .htacess from being written to, if recreating the file it does lend to that theory as well. Since you restored the .htaccess files do you still get an error when trying to switch PHP versions?
