How to change php version

[EyeLand]

Hello, on VPS Debian I use PHP 5.4.4-14+deb7u7 (cli) (built: Dec 12
2013 10:55:22), and I want to change to PHP Version 5.2.17, (because I
want to use old script), can you consult? Thank you.

[chris]

I would recommend re-writing the script for security and performance
reasons, as PHP 5.2 is no longer supported.

I agree with Chris. But if you really want to swith PHP version, you can add
the following line to your .htaccess file:

AddHandler x-httpd-php52 .php

Assuming that php version 5.2 is available on the server of course.

Best regards.

1) Do you have access to the control panel of your hosting? You may find
some information there. Or you can ask your hosting provider
2) Yes you can use the .htaccess file in the root folder.

Beste regards.

not your ssh root user. in the DOCUMENT_ROOT for your web server.

probably located in /var/www/html/ or /var/www/htdocs/

[EyeLand]

on ispconfig, clients folder is /var/www/clients, my site (with old
script) will work on /var/www/clients/client0/web5, in this case I
think I need to create on /var/www/clients/.htaccess ?

If you place the .htaccess file in /var/www/clients/, the .htaccess file
will have an effect on all folders in /var/www/clients/. If you want only
the web5 folder to be affected, you place the .htaccess file in there.

Hi,

I doubt there is even PHP 5.2.17 installed. Search for the rpm of the same
for your distro and install it. Or even better, compile it. So that your
default PHP 5.4 doesn't conflicts with PHP 5.2

In ISPConfig the web root (DOCUMENT_ROOT) is something like this
/var/www/clients/client0/test.nl/web/ where test.nl is the site.

download

3) can you recommend how do (article/manual) step by step for
"build/install this from
source -- taking *great care* to be certain to install it in other
than the default location (e.g., /usr/local/bin, rather than
/usr/bin) so that it doesn't trample on your existing 5.4.4 version"

I suspect that you are going to need to build/install this from
source -- taking *great care* to be certain to install it in other
than the default location (e.g., /usr/local/bin, rather than
/usr/bin) so that it doesn't trample on your existing 5.4.4 version.
Installing from an old rpm will likely blow away your 5.4.4 version,
which could cause things like the installed phpmyadmin to stop
working.
Note -- the 5.4.4 release will have, among other things, security
fixes. So, going back to 5.2.17 will probably leave you with some
vulnerabilities.
I obviously have no knowledge of your application, but I don't think
that anything so major changed that would keep a 5.2.17-centric
application from working in a 5.4.4 environment. I have made
applications built for much older versions of php work with 5.4,
without great pain. I suspect that a couple of careful changes to
the default php.ini would take care of the majority of the
compatibility issues.

I need a virtual online server on data centre, localhost it is not a
good way for me

What about just setting up a virtual box with that version? Use virtualbox
or VMware
