== FAQ ==
+
 
+
Q: Application reports a mysql mismatch between the installed mysql and the version php uses.
+
 
+
A: This is not an error. As stated in the features above PHP is linked against the native vendor distributed version of mysql, this prevents a condition where PHP upgrades also force Mysql upgrades. Applications reporting this as an error are incorrect. Asking this question in forums makes us a Sad Panda that you do not read our FAQ. *insert sad panda emoticon here*

+

+
== Known Issues ==
+
 
+
 
+
1) VPS and RHEL users, If you dont use the atomic installer, you're going to miss some dependencies, like sqlite3. Have fun with that!
+
 
+
2) RHEL4 users (and possibly others) can resolve the sqlite3 dependencies by grabbing rpms from the CentOS repositories. The atomic installer fixes this for you automatically.

3) PHP 5.2.5 causes problems with Horde and Apache configuration files on PSA 8.2.1 and lower. '''PSA 8.3.0 has fixed this problem''', so the easiest way to fix these issues is to upgrade to PSA 8.3.0 or higher. Otherwise, you'll need to perform the following extra steps:

= FAQ =
  
3a) Modify /etc/httpd/conf.d/zz010_psa_httpd.conf
+
== Is PHP 5.3 supported? ==
  
Change this:
+
Our PHP 5.3 packages, when installed from the [[Nucleus]] repository are supported as described on the [[Nucleus]] page.
php_admin_value include_path "/usr/share/psa-horde:/usr/share/psa-horde/pear:."
+
to
+
php_admin_value include_path "/usr/share/psa-horde/lib:/usr/share/psa-horde:/usr/share/psa-horde/pear:."
+
  
Note this file is changed every time plesk is updated, so you'll need to go back and fix this when it does.
+
== Is PHP 5.4 supported? ==
  
This also fixes the '''PHP Fatal error:  Can't load Horde/SessionObjects.php, open_basedir restriction''' problem.
+
Our PHP 5.4 rpm are provided for free, without support.
  
3b) General issues with php_admin_value:
+
== Does ASL install or replace PHP on my system? ==
  
The fix for now is to replace  the use of php_admin_value with php_valueI have only tested this as far as the domains on this server. You will find this used all over the place in zz010_psa_httpd.conf, domain level httpd.includes, and most likely in your own customizations. The biggest problems Ive had are with register_globals and include_path, I have not run into any issues with PSA httpd.include files and open_basedir.

No, [[ASL]] does notASL will not install or replace PHP on your system.

Either remove it, with yum remove sb-publish, or you *might* be able to get it to work by using the php-sqlite2 from the Fedora 8 plesk repo.</strike> php-sqlite2 was added to the atomic repo to handle sitebuilder integration.
