Upgrading from 6.4 to 7.0.8, need to update php-fpm and not sure of the process

[kwbarron]

Due to some recent vulns, we need to update our Zabbix server from 6.4 to 7.0.8. To do so, we need to update php (we are running php-fpm) from 7.4 to 8.2.

I have been unable to find a good document describing the upgrade process for php-fpm, so I am hoping someone here has one available or a link to one.

FYI, we are in a very locked down environment, and I don't have access to many external repos.

As the process differs between different repos then you won't get any help without mentioning which distro.

Thanks - I normally add that info, but in this case was typing in a hurry. It is running on RHEL 8.

Having typed that up, I built my own lab in a VM to test, and the procedure is pretty simple.


# yum module reset php

# yum module enable php:8.2 -y

# yum module list php (make sure 8.2 is showing as default)

# yum install php php-fpm -y
