PHP Upgrade! Results Nope!

[EmpireKicking]

Running IPS 4.5 and yesterday I updated my PHP to 7.4 from my server using/from MultiPHP manager (do not have PHP selector) anyway saved and that's all I had to do. Meanwhile in the ACP it's still saying it's running v7.1.14 and so then when I added code to .htaccess to run the new PHP 7.4 the site goes into a 500 error.

Yet in the .htaccess file there is no old code to be edited or removed.

Any errors in your error logs? 

[EmpireKicking]

From ACP no. 

This is what gets added, when 7.4 is set

# php -- BEGIN cPanel-generated handler, do not edit
# Set the “ea-php74” package as the default “PHP” programming language.
<IfModule mime_module>
  AddHandler application/x-httpd-ea-php74 .php .php7 .phtml
</IfModule>
# php -- END cPanel-generated handler, do not edit

 

Error log from the server logs,

You're missing the multibyte extension which is required. You will need to install that into PHP.

This may help:

It has help and work..  I see what is not enabled now. Didn't release it was this much

 

[CoffeeCake]

You'll need to install and enable each of the PHP extensions listed (the ones that are red). I'd also recommend the php imagemagick extension in addition to GD.

You're missing:

• Curl (not needed, but good idea)
• DOM
• GD
• Multibyte String
• MySQLi
• SimpleXML
• XML Parser
• XMLReader
• XMLWriter
• Consider imagemagick
• Consider zip
• Consider exif
