php53-sockets

vatson · November 8, 2013, 3:39pm

I need to upgrade a PHP installation on SLES11 SP2 from 5.2.14 to 5.3.8, and I need the sockets extension. When I originally installed this server, I couldn’t go with PHP 5.3 exactly because the sockets extension was only available for PHP 5.2. Now I found TID7000141 where it says that php53-sockets ‘has been released via the update repository’ for SLES11 SP2 SDK. Sounds promising, but can someone explain how can I access this repository? My server is properly registered with Novell Customer Center and can receive updates, but searching the updates for ‘php53’ yields only one update which is not the sockets extension. I guess I need to add something under ‘Installation Sources’ in YaST, but I don’t know the repository URL…

Hi vatson,

via the update repository’ for SLES11 SP2 SDK […] can someone explain how can I access this repository?

if you download the SDK (a non-charge add-on product) and install it via YaST (there’s an option to install add-ons), the according repositories are added automatically.

Jens

Thanks for your reply, Jens. It seems that I am still missing a step somewhere. The repositories now include ‘SUSE-Linux-Enterprise-Software-Development-Kit-11-SP2_11.2.2-1.66’, which as I understand is the content on SDK DVD, but there doesn’t seem to be a corresponding online update repository:

Hi vatson,

please try to re-run the NCC registration (no need to re-enter the registration code, though), seems I forgot that step is required :[

Regards,
Jens

vatson · November 10, 2013, 7:12pm

Thanks for the advice, Jens.

I re-ran the NCC registration, but it completed with message “The repositories did not need to be changed” and the update repository for SLE SDK still was not added. Fortunately, I could just download the necessary php53-sockets rpm via download.novell.com, so we can consider the problem “solved”. This was actually the first thing that I tried before attempting to configure the repository, but I didn’t realize in the beginning that I should search for updates for “SUSE Linux Enterprise Software Development Kit”, not “SUSE Linux Enterprise Server”.

this is strange - you did add the SDK as an add-on product, rather than just adding the ISO as an repository? I suggest fixing this situation, although you consider your actual problem solved - that way you’ll get at least notifications of available updates and profit from dependency checks concerning interdependant SDK/base updates.

Jens

I suspect that the reason NCC registration thinks all is okay is because it
doesn’t recognise the SDK product is installed and since it’s optional
doesn’t care. What does “zypper se -t product” report? I’m guessing nothing
relating to the SDK.

Here’s the output:

Hmm zypper appears to think the SLE SDK is installed (whilst “sle-sdk”
being lowercase looks odd it’s correct). I’m at SUSECon this week so don’t
have full access to my test systems.

That’s because it can’t access the media for SLES11 SP2.

Hi Simon, hi vatson,

Hmm zypper appears to think the SLE SDK is installed

to me the missing “i” in column 1 seems to indicate that the ISO was added, but the SDK not installed as an add-on product.

Jens

Hi did you resolve this. I need sockets for PHP53 but cannot find it listed.

mikewillis · April 3, 2014, 11:09pm

The php53-sockets package is in the SUSE Linux Enterprise Software Development Kit (SLE-SDK). Have you added the SLE-SDK to your repos? If not, that’s why you don’t see the php53-sockets package listed

You can download the SLE-SDK ISO from
https://download.suse.com/
You need to match the version to whichever version of SLES you are using. You only need to download DVD1.
