Has anybody got rid of Custombuild updates for PHP. For me there are no pros, only cons to use Custombuild. The main problems are the long time it takes to compile a service and some weird out-of-memory crashes during the build process plus some problems I have encountered so far. I have been running Remi powered versions on non-DA servers and they work just fine without one single problem.
So if I drop PHP7.x (7.1 at the moment) and replace it, say with a Remi repository version, what are the possible caveats?
Some background info plus just one of the problems: I have an absolutely clean DA Centos 7 server with zero hacks installed. Everything is as pure DA as it can possibly be. Today I ran the standard
and the result was that nobody could log into the admin interfaces requiring use of PHP sessions. The reason was /var/www/tmp which was owned by webapps.webapps with permissions 700 and the PHP user tinyshop.tinyshop had no way to store the session info. I have no idea why everything worked before but not after the update. Changing the permissions to 777 was the only quick way to stop the flow of telephone calls from customers.
I have no idea what, where and when did something weird but the above happened five minutes after I had updated PHP.
