PHP upgrade

M

I'm currently running PHP 5.4.45 on FreeBSD 9.3 and phpmyadmin now requires a minimum version of 5.5 to work.

What would anyone advise I should upgrade to from PHP 5.4.45 and how do I go about it having never done this before ?
 
Normally this would involved a read of the upstream migration guide for an internal application (http://php.net/migration55). If you only have databases/phpmyadmin from ports then that wouldn't be needed. If you are using packages then pkg upgrade should just work as 5.6 is the default as mentioned in less -p 20150220 /usr/ports/UPDATING. If you are using ports, you would have to do is remove the make.conf entry that is keeping you on lang/php5 since the default is already lang/php56. That would of course be followed by a reinstall of all PHP ports.
 
Thanks for the reply. I read the documentation and looked at pkg upgrade. So I went ahead and removed the entry in make.conf.

I then ran pkg upgrade and got the following list ...

Proceed with this action? [y/N]:
Now looking at this list it seems to want to upgrade apache from 2.2 to 2.4 despite my make.conf entry stating the default is 2.2. Does PHP 5.6 require Apache 2.4 ?

Also is there anything else on this list that may need to be looked at ?
 
pkg(8) does not take make.conf into account. Any default settings will simply be ignored. The default settings only work if you build from ports.

If you want to deviate from the default versions I highly recommend setting up your own repository with ports-mgmt/poudriere.
