Hello, How can I change PHP version under 7.1 ? I want to use PHP5. How to use PHP5 in my webapp ?

Thanks

Hello,

PHP7.1 has been deprecated almost three years ago, and PHP5 almost four years ago. We will most likely not support installing them on your server, sorry. The page I linked has guides for your to upgrade your code up to PHP8.

What do you think, @YunoHost-Apps/apps-group, though?

using a PHP5 only app seems a very bad idea on a public server ...

Dr-Wily commented 1 year ago

I have some websites (not publicy exposed) who work only with old versions of PHP. I can't upgrade the because I'am not the dev of these app. This is statistics app and (PHPmyVisit) and the developer won't develop a tools to migrate database to piwik and /or to matomo.

I don't want to lost 14 years of stats just because it's impossible to keep this app working. At this time I must keep a Debian 5 server just for this app.

Docker is a solution but it don't work well with yunohost and my last solution is mywebapp but again no php5... it's hopeless...

You can fork mywebapp_ynh and add PHP5 to the manifeste.json
