[SOLVED] apache php7 upgrade failures

i have apache running serving nextcloud and a mythweb install. for a month or two any updates would fail because of nextcloud not supporting php 7.2  Today there was a new version of nextcloud and pacman allowed the upgrade which installed php 7.2 and the modules i use for those packages.

after the install the server loaded but both nextcloud and mythweb failed. i attempted to downgrade back to 7.1 by going through pacman.log and getting prior versions of anything php or apache related from earlier today. and now i get a failure of httpd service to load with the error that:
libicui18n.so.59 is not found, when in fact that file is in my lib directory. so i am at a loss.

i did not change anything in an httpd conf file or php.ini

if anyone has any idea how to get the server running i'd appreciate the help

Re: [SOLVED] apache php7 upgrade failures

The new version of nextcloud specifically requires the php71 packages. How did you manage to update without switching to those?

Re: [SOLVED] apache php7 upgrade failures

yes it installed those, but also php-apache 7.2. but after update nextcloud did not work. i just put it back and i get this: This version of Nextcloud is not compatible with PHP 7.2.
You are currently running 7.2.1.

maybe that comes from the php-apache that was upgraded

Re: [SOLVED] apache php7 upgrade failures

So you have a mixture of php 7.2 and 7.1? And you're surprised you have problems?

Re: [SOLVED] apache php7 upgrade failures

just the upgrade gave me php71 and apache-php 7.2. that is what pacman did. when i downgraded pacman to apache-php 7.1 it won't load the server with error above. there is no php 7.2 installed anywhere. php was replaced by php71 per pacman. i am just looking for a way to revert back without restoring a backup which i would like to avoid. prior to today any upgrade would fail because of nextcloud. today's nextcloud package removed that failure

Re: [SOLVED] apache php7 upgrade failures

There is php71-apache. I think that would be a cleaner solution than downgrading packages.

I think overall it may be a good idea for you to look at the list of php71-... packages in [community].

Re: [SOLVED] apache php7 upgrade failures

thanks for the suggestion, i'm sure that  probably  would have worked. i wound up removing php71, installing php72 and installing nextcloud beta for vers 13 which got all working.
