How to upgrade PHP to 5.6 is not a big challenge. In some cases , some manuell installed modul over pecl like imagick will not properly works. This is because some modul are compiled with the old php module.
The error looks like:
|
1 2 3 |
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: imagick: Unable to initialize module Module compiled with module API=20121212 PHP compiled with module API=20131226 |
So the new php 5.6 in this case is compiled with module API=20131226 . All what you have to do is to upgrade the php5-dev package and reinstall the modul again. In this case imagick.
