zhinigami Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hi all, Can anyone tell me how to update my local PC's php develper version? My current php dev version is 5.0.X...and i wish to update it to 5.2.X I have downloaded the "PHP 5.2.5 installer [19,803Kb] - 15 November 2007" from site:http://my2.php.net/downloads.php I thought to update php version by installing it but I'm not sure whether this is the correct way or not? Am i right? I need your guide about it.

trq Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 You have failed to mention what OS your using. On my systems (Debain), its as simple as... $ apt-get update && apt-get upgrade Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/86270-solved-php-version-update-help/#findComment-440813 Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildteen88 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 How was PHP installed originally? Did it come as part of a preconfigured AMP package such as WAMP or XAMPP? Or did you install it yourself using the PHP installer? If its the latter you should be able to just download the zipped binaries packagefrom php.net (not the installer). Once downloaded just extract the contents of the zip to where you have installed PHP to, making sure you overwrite existing files/folders. PHP should now be updated.

My pc currently is the one come as part of a preconfigured AMP package in XAMPP. I'm sorry i failed to give correct detail again. Now I know it has one preconfigured and one php installer itself. So, then how am i going to update the php version with the preconfigured xampp software?

wildteen88 Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 If you have XAMPP installed then I'd recommend you to upgrade XAMPP itself rather than a component.
