removing old PHP scripts is not working

[Audrey]

Hi

I am trying to remove old PHP scripts from this server.

I have done the following

1. Login as admin as admin.
2. Go to CustomBuilds.
3. Click on Edit options.
4. Set php1_release to version 8.5.
5. Set the rest of php_release to no.
6. Click save.

Then
in SSH I ran
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build php n
./build rewrite_confs

Then I ran
./build list_removals

and SSH says
"If you want to remove all the suggested programs above, run: da build remove_it"

There are no items listed for removal so I did not run
da build remove_it

I know there are lots of old php scripts because the DirectAdmin admin section wants me to update the old php scripts on a regular basis

Please advise
Thanks

Audrey

What do you mean under "PHP scripts" ? If I understood you correct, then you want to disable and remove all old PHP versions except the latest one and you want only using PHP 8.5 on your DA server. If I am right then, you can run these commands (just in case):

da build set php9_release no
da build set php8_release no
da build set php7_release no
da build set php6_release no
da build set php6_release no
da build set php5_release no
da build set php4_release no
da build set php3_release no
da build set php2_release no
da build set php1_release 8.5

then re-build php:

da build php
da build rewrite_confs

It is should be enough. If "list_removals" shows the results like this one

[root@serv ~]# da build list_removals

If you want to remove all the suggested programs above, run: da build remove_items
[root@serv ~]#

then it is OK and you do not need anything else, because there is nothing to remove

Thanks for your help

I already have all of the old versions of PHP set to no in the admin section.
When I run the command in SSH
da build set php2_release no
it says
php2_release is already set to no

I know there arestill lots of old php scripts because the DirectAdmin section wants me to update the old php scripts on a regular basis

Attached is a screenshot of DirectAdmin wanting me to update these packages.

You are using CloudLinux OS and have installed PHP that comes from CloudLinux too. In that case please reach CloudLinux support to get more details how to correctly deal with those packages.
