Install PHP 8.1 from source in CWP?

[Fidolas]

Can't see the option to update PHP to latest 8.1.25 build. Can anyone tell how to update version?

Thanks in advance,

for php switcher you can build it form source :

follow Step 1 from here 

Step 2 :

mkdir -p /usr/local/php-81
cd /usr/local/php-81
wget http://php.net/distributions/php-8.1.25.tar.gz
tar zxvf php-8.1.25.tar.gz
cd php-8.1.25
./configure --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/php --enable-cgi --with-config-file-scan-dir=/usr/local/php/php.d --with-zlib=/usr --enable-mbstring --with-zip --enable-bcmath --enable-pcntl --enable-ftp --enable-exif --enable-calendar --enable-sysvmsg --enable-sysvsem --enable-sysvshm --with-tidy --with-curl --with-iconv --with-gmp --with-pspell --enable-gd --with-avif --with-jpeg --with-freetype --enable-gd-jis-conv --with-webp --with-zlib-dir=/usr --with-xpm --with-openssl --with-pdo-mysql=mysqlnd --with-gettext=/usr --with-bz2=/usr --with-mysqli --enable-soap --enable-phar --with-xsl --with-kerberos --enable-posix --enable-sockets --with-external-pcre --with-libdir=lib64 --with-mysql-sock=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock --enable-intl --with-password-argon2 --enable-litespeed --with-ldap=/usr --with-ldap-sasl=/usr  
make
make install

Thanks a lot. I will try it

In my case I needed these parameters:

--prefix=/opt/alt/php-fpm81/usr --with-config-file-path=/opt/alt/php-fpm81/usr/php --with-config-file-scan-dir=/opt/alt/php-fpm81/usr/php/php.d

to make it work with PHP-FPM selector in CWP. I added it here to help others in my same situation.

What about if you need ionCube support/enabled?

If you use JIT on PHP do not enable Ioncube because it makes the server to crash with segfaults errors. Use only one of them but not both.

It can be incompatibility with 2 modules.
