Will PHP 8.4 be available for legacy licences

[marson]

Hello

I saw that PHP 8.4 will be available from version 1.671 of DirectAdmin, will PHP 8.4 be available for legacy licences too or only for the monthly one?

There aren't any limitations for PHP 8.4, you could already switch to alpha update channel, update DirectAdmin and get it installed for a legacy license.

Thank you for clarification.

I am, for once, positively surprised!

Hello, is there a reason why in my DirectAdmin v.1.668 I cannot install PHP 8.4 ?
I don't see it in the available versions in custombuild options.

Update your DirectAdmin. You are using a version from 20-09-2024, released before 8.4 was released.

Thank you for your reply

If I try to update I get this

[root@xxxxxx ~]# da build update
directadmin current v1.668 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx is already latest

Please ensure you aren't using EOL OS.

EOL OS will not receive updated anymore.

That's the problem. On that server I'm still using CentOS7.
I will stick with 8.3.
I have other (newest) servers that are using 8.4

Thanks for the answer.

You can elevate to almalinux if you want

One thing to keep in mind is that CentOS 7 is end of life, it no longer receives security updates. I would be tempted to get this updated sooner rather than the later.
