[LUG]Re: Php version

 


Hi

As I said Grant S set this up and I can't get hold of him, looks like the hosting company is oceanus or I https://oceanus.hostns.io.

I think the website is here

https://my.oceanichost.com/order/forms/

I can't figure out how to contact them,

Paul

I would urge them to do this ASAP, and in the meantime you should back all your stuff up. This is literally the biggest vulnerability in the history of PHP

    Thanks,

    In my control panel I can choose between versions with a point
    release so for this 8.4, 8.5.  So not 8.5.11, 8.5.12

    It looks like they have updated something as I said it is 8.5.11
    currently, so I can wait a little longer.

    I am not sure what the correct terminology is for everything. e.g
    8.5.11 and 8.5.12

    I will check what version they are running again tomorrow and see if
    it has changed.

    Thanks,

    Paul

    No, 8.5.12 is the patched version (but yes, that's the correct way
    to check).

    Check in your hosting panel if that version is available, and if
    it isn't get on to your hosting provider ASAP

    Hi

    Given the current issue with php, I logged in to my hosting
    control panel,

    If I goto terminal

    So according to that I am running 8.5.11, am I correct in
    thinking that

    a) this is the correct way to check?

    b) 8.5.11 is the updated patched version

    c) it is safe to take my site (at least) out of maintenance mode?
    I recently updated my site to Grav2 which requires the server to
    be running 8.3 or above


    Thanks,

    Paul
