PHP8.2.* Install?

Hello,

Since we are still quite new and have only been working with CWP for a few weeks, I wanted to ask what you have to do to make PHP versions also show PHP8.2.*?

Do you have to wait for an update from CWP or can you add it yourself? Since we have a large statistics tool, which should work best with php8.2.*!

Thanks for the brief information!

I thought PHP 8.2 was still in the RC stage.

Just looked and it is released.

Let me do some testing, and I'll get back with you.

(BTW I do not work for CWP)

You should see (if all went well):

PHP 8.2.0 (cli) (built: Dec 12 2022 17:57:50) (NTS)
Copyright (c) The PHP Group
Zend Engine v4.2.0, Copyright (c) Zend Technologies

In CWP you should see:

Thank you! Will it be submitted by an update from CWP directly to the PHP 8.2 ? Because I didn't want to work on the console now, or is that unfortunately absolutely necessary? I mean, I don't really need it yet, but with the next updates of our scripts it will be imperative, but I wanted to inform myself first!

Don't know when/if CWP will add 8.2 in the next update, as I mentioned I don't work for them.

I know I was able to go back to 8.1 without problems, and the 8.1 version of this worked with CWP when they finally did add support.

The only way to get 8.2.0 now, would be thru cli via ssh or local.
