Apache Friends Support Forum

Hi,

i have installed xampp for linux 1.7.3a but I am still getting PHP Version 5.2.8 but not 5.3.1.

Please help me in resolving this.

Thanks in advance

Depends on what where are you getting this version report.

If it is through command lampp phpstatus, then run:

Code: Select all

/opt/lampp/share/lampp/activatephp 5.3.1

If it is through phpinfo or similar, replace file /opt/lampp/modules/libphp5.so by the same file in the newest version of LAMPP.
Also, make sure you are actually running XAMPP and not your distros' Apache.

If everything fails, backup your configuration, htdocs and database and make fresh install of XAMPP.

Thanks restarting lampp gave me 5.3.1 in phpinfo
