Installing PHP 8.1? [solved]

Support and Discussion General Discussion

I need php 8.1. I tried using the GUI to “change PHP” to 8.1 but my website is still reporting version 8.0.23 and the ‘php -v’ in terminal shows php 7 actually.

I need version 8.1 in both terminal and on the website.

I tried apt-get install lsphp81* then ‘change PHP’ via GUI. Restrted lsws from terminal as well.

Edit

Was able to solve it. To install php 8.1 for cli:

apt install software-properties-common
add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
apt update
apt-get install php8.1

php -v shows 8.1 :slight_smile:

To install for litespeed, I ran the cyberpanel upgrade script after changing to 8.1 via GUI, then I just manually changed the Vhost Conf. Within the extprocessor userXXXXXXX {…}
There’s a setting (path) that specifies which lsphp to load, just change from php8 to php8.1:

  ...
  autoStart               1
  path                    /usr/local/lsws/lsphp81/bin/lsphp
  extUser                 user1234
