PHP 7.2 Upgrade
IMPORTANT: These instructions are only for upgrade installations only. If you are installing a new server, or do not want to run PHP 7.2 alongside an older version please see the PHP 7.2 Install Instructions
Additionally, REDHAT 8 does not auto configure php-fpm as it does in previous versions, so for REDHAT 8, these instructions should be used: The following information represents the process we use to upgrade hosted installations.

Upgrade Process
Update all packages
yum update
In some cases you may see this error:
The GPG keys listed for the "Percona-Release YUM repository - noarch" repository are already installed but they are not correct for this package. Check that the correct key URLs are configured for this repository.
To resolve, manually edit the repo file:
vim /etc/yum.repos.d/percona-release.repo # change all instances of gpgcheck = 1 # to gpgcheck = 0 # save and close the file, then try to update again
Reboot the server:
reboot now
- Make sure the EPEL repo is installed and active
The following file should exist:
/etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo
and contain the section [epel] with the value enabled=1
If not, install the repo
## RHEL/CentOS 6 64-Bit ## # wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm # rpm -ivh epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm ## RHEL/CentOS 7 64-Bit ## # wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm # rpm -ivh epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
Install the remi-safe repo:
# Redhat 6 or CentOS 6 yum -y install http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm # Redhat 7 or CentOS 7 yum -y install http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
Install PHP 7.2, FPM for PHP 7.2, and the Apache FPM Mod
yum -y install php72 php72-php-fpm mod_proxy_fcgi
Edit the php.ini file. This will typically be located at /etc/opt/remi/php72/php.ini. The following lines need to be updated:
# Set max memory to 1 Gb memory_limit = 1024M # Set the max file upload size to 10 Megabytes upload_max_filesize = 10M # This would need to be set to the timezone in which the Server is located date.timezone = America/Detroit
Install the PHP modules required by PCR-360
yum -y install php72-php-process php72-php-xml php72-php-pecl-apcu php72-php-gd php72-php-intl php72-php-mbstring php72-php-pecl-mcrypt php72-php-pdo php72-php-soap php72-php-pecl-zip # Optional (installation dependant) Packages # MySql support yum -y install php72-php-mysqlnd # LDAP Support yum -y install php72-php-ldap
If you experience an issue with installing dependencies for the Modules, you will either need to compile them yourself, or install the centos repo:
vim /etc/yum.repos.d/centos.repo [centos] name=CentOS $releasever - $basearch baseurl=http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/centos/6/os/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=0
- Install OCI8 Support ONLY if this is an Oracle Load:
Support for this will require you Update the Oracle Instant Client to at at least version 18.1
You will likely need to remove previous versions of SQL Plus
# This command will vary depending on the version installed rpm -e oracle-instantclient12.1-sqlplus-12.1.0.2.0-1.x86_6
Start Here: Instant Client Install
/wiki/spaces/PCRIN/pages/17266319hen install the PHP72 Mod
# Oracle Support yum -y install php72-php-oci8
The defaults settings for PHP-FPM should be ok, but if you need to change anything (i.e. listening port), the config can be found at:
/etc/opt/remi/php72/php-fpm.d/www.conf
The default listening port may be changed at the following line
listen = 127.0.0.1:9000
Edit the Virtual Host configuration. This is generally located in the default Virtual Hosts directory:
/etc/httpd/conf.d/<vhost_name>.conf
- For Apache Version 2.2, two new directives need to be added:
- The placement of the new lines is especially important in Shibboleth configurations
- Just below the <Directory> directive, add the <Location> directive
Just below the newly added <Location> directive, add the ProxyPassMatch
# DIRECTORY-based Setup: This is the most common used on customer loads <VirtualHost> # This is just an example ServerName. The value should already be present and does not need to be altered ServerName servername.domain.com ... <Directory /var/www/pcr360/test/public> ... </Directory> # Just below the <Directory> directive, add the <Location> directive # Proxy to php72 on fpm <Location /> Order allow,deny Allow from all </Location> # Just below the newly added <Location> directive, add the ProxyPassMatch ProxyPassMatch ^/(.*\.php(/.*)?)$ fcgi://127.0.0.1:9000/var/www/pcr360/test/public/$1 disablereuse=off timeout=900 ... </VirtualHost>
- For Apache Version 2.4
Tell PHP-FPM to listen to the socket. Edit /etc/opt/remi/php72/php-fpm.d/www.conf and change the line listen= ... to:
listen = /var/run/php72.sock
Find the listen.owner / .group / .mode lines and un-comment them. Also, change the user & group to whatever Apache runs as (usually "apache").
listen.owner = apache listen.group = apache listen.mode = 0660
Declare the proxy in a separate .conf file so we can re-use it. i.e. /etc/httpd/conf.d/php72.conf
<Proxy "unix:/var/run/php72.sock|fcgi://php-fpm72"> ProxySet disablereuse=off ProxySet timeout=900 </Proxy>
Edit the PCR360 <VirtualHost> and add the <FilesMatch> & SetHandler:
<VirtualHost> # This is just an example ServerName. The value should already be present and does not need to be altered ServerName servername.domain.com ... <FilesMatch \.php$> SetHandler proxy:fcgi://php-fpm72 </FilesMatch> ... </VirtualHost>
- For Apache Version 2.2, two new directives need to be added:
Start the FPM service
# RedHat 6 and CentOS 6 service php72-php-fpm start # RedHat 7 and CentOS 7 systemctl start php72-php-fpm
Verify the the service is listening on the configured port (default is 9000).
netstat -plnt Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:9000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4262/php-fpm
Enable the FPM service. Restart Apache and PHP
# RedHat 6 and CentOS 6 chkconfig php72-php-fpm on && service httpd restart && service php72-php-fpm restart # RedHat 7 and CentOS 7 systemctl enable httpd php72-php-fpm && systemctl restart httpd php72-php-fpm
- The application code can now be updated to version 2018.1+
