Fedora Core 6 Migration
- by Matthew Sprankle
I am at a loss as to what I should to for this server. I need it to run php5.3 and corresponding version of mysql.
I received a client today through work that is using Fedora core 6 running 10 very small websites on some very hodge podge setup. My original idea was just upgrade to php5.3. I have yum (installed 3.0.8) reconfigured for the fedora archive. The latest version of php it allows is 5.1.8. I am still relatively new to server setups and am nervous about wiping their server to upgrade it. Since it is about 6-8 years old I'm not sure if it will even support the newest version of fedora.
The server specs are:
Parallels Plesk Panel version 9.5.4
Operating system Linux 2.6.9-023stab048.4-smp
CPU GenuineIntel, Intel(R) Xeon(R)CPU E5335 @ 2.00GHz
(10gb disk space and 1gb of memory).
I use fedora for my personal server so I was a little familiar with it. I haven't done anything too extravagant. Is there a way I can escape this nightmare with installing php5.3 or do I need to migrate these sites to a new server?
