Chuck Passaro Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Hello, We run a dedicated server with two Invision Community installs. The PHP version currently running is 7.3 which is deprecated. For the new upgrade, I need to change this to at least 7.4, although I also have access to PHP8.0. My problem starts when I change the version in WHM Multi-PHP Manager. I checked with main Invision install and the screen goes white. I tried disabling applications in Invision, with no luck. I then tried the other Invision installation and the same occurs there. Is there somewhere I could check to see what is causing this problem? Please bear in mind that I only know the very basics and would need an easy to understand explanation 🤣 Thanks, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Passaro Posted July 6, 2022 Author Share Posted July 6, 2022 Hi Marc, That file is already installed and just tells me I'm ready to install Invision 4.1 with zero problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Indeed you would need then to update your PHP version. It seems its not being updated to the version you believe it is there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Passaro Posted July 6, 2022 Author Share Posted July 6, 2022 No, that's not the problem. I can change the PHP version in WHM, but when I do, I end up with a blank white page instead of the forum. This happens on both forums on same dedicated server.

Marc Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Please switch to that version, then let me know so I can take a look. The message there however would indicate you are not actually using PHP 8 Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
