upgrade to PHP 7.4 fails

[mon-team]

Hello,
i'm running Nagios XI 5.6.1 on a Centos 7.7.
Following this guide https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/n ... 7-860.html the PHP version is upgraded to the 7.4, but the main webpage is unavailable and i get an http code 500.
The apache error log says this:

PHP Fatal error: SourceGuardian Loader - This protected script was not encoded for version 7.4 of PHP

i followed the procedure step by step upgrading also to the latest sourceguardian.
Could you help me?
Regards
Francesco

Hi Francesco,
How are you doing?
Based on the KB (below), you might want to use php-7.2 instead, since your XI is at "5.6.1".
5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6 | 7.0, 7.1, 7.2 (XI 5.5+) | 7.3 (XI 5.6.8+) | 7.4 (XI 5.7.0+)
https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/n ... 7-860.html


Since you already done the below steps, we can skip them:

Code: Select all

yum -y install epel-release wget
yum remove nagiosxi-deps* -y
rpm -Uvh http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm

Now, please try the followings, install php72:

Code: Select all

yum -y remove php-*
yum-config-manager --disable remi-php74
yum-config-manager --enable remi-php72

yum -y install php php-imap php-opcache php-devel php-gd php-ldap php-mbstring php-pdo php-pdo-dblib php-mysqlnd php-pgsql php-pear php-pecl-ssh2 php-pgsql php-process php-snmp php-xml php-odbc

sed -i "s:;date.timezone =.*:date.timezone = ${PHPTZ}:" /etc/php.ini

cd /tmp
rm -rf /tmp/nagiosxi
wget https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/xi-latest.tar.gz
tar zxf xi-latest.tar.gz

cd /tmp/nagiosxi
rm -rf /etc/php.d/sourceguardian.ini
./init.sh

sed -i '/^PHP script/d' xi-sys.cfg
sed -i '/^1)/d' xi-sys.cfg
sed -i '/^2)/d' xi-sys.cfg
sed -i '/^3)/d' xi-sys.cfg
./install-sourceguardian-extension.sh

Please run the below command and make sure that "php-7.2" is listed:

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep "^php-"

Now, let reconfigure Nagios and restart services:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/reconfigure_nagios.sh

systemctl restart mariadb
systemctl restart httpd
systemctl restart nagios

Best Regards,
Vinh

Hello Vihn,
yes i missed the information about my current release
I've followed the steps to install the php 7.2, and i confirm you that i've succesfully updated the php version.

Thanks for your clarification,
