Debian is a very good distrib. Actually, I think it’s the best one.
But sometimes it’s need of stability keeps us on old versions.
so here are the instructions to update PEAR php.
1 2 | pear update-channels pear upgrade-all |
Done !
Update PEAR to the latest version
Update PEAR to the latest version
Update PHP to the latest version on Debian Lenny
Update PHP to the latest version on Debian Lenny
It’s easier than you think.
First you have to add the dotdeb packages to the /etc/apt/sources.list file
1 2 | deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all |
if you want the php 5.3 branch, add these lines instead
1 2 | deb http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all deb-src http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all |
You have then to install the gpg keys :
1 2 | gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 89DF5277 gpg -a --export 89DF5277 | sudo apt-key add - |
(remove “sudo” if you’re already root)
Then do :
1 2 | apt-get update apt-get upgrade |
Here you have, the latest PHP version (5.2.14 or 5.3.3 at this moment)

It’s official, Onigoetz.ch is doing web hosting now !
The server I use now has some free space and performace, so why not make it useful to everybody?
It’s in this idea in mind that we launch this hosting service.
The advantage over other services is that the scripts are executed with the server’s username (php-su) which guarantees the best security.
Most of the php functions are activated, although “mail()” is disabled for security reasons, but you can still send your e-mails through SMTP.
The e-mail part is provided by Google Apps (or any other external service if you want to)
The reasons of this chois are :
- Best security
- 7 Gigabytes per mailbox
- Good Webmail
- Mobile Sync (iPhone, Windows Mobile)
- Imap / Pop3
- Google Docs, Google Talk, Google Spreadsheets
The details of the offer is available on this page : http://www.onigoetz.ch/en/hosting/
The offer is as follows : there is a base offer with the possibility to add some space.
The first offer begins at 35 CHF/year with one gigabyte.
