PHP 7.4 released

[sgoodman]

Does the current FOG server run without modification with the new PHP 7.4 distrobution?

@sgoodman I have not tested PHP 7.4 yet. Which Linxu OS do you use and what repo do you pull the packages from?

[sgoodman]

I am presently CentOS 7.7 (with plans once the repos catch up to migrate this to CentOS 8).

Remi Repo

(yum install http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm)

I enable the 7.4 distribution in /etc/yum.repos.d/remi-php74.repo

I’ve installed this on a dozen or so servers, none of which depend highly on PHP (fog obviously does) without issue. However with all the deprecation going on/off in PHP - I do worry.

A quick look at https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration74.php makes me think there shouldn’t be too many issues, though without a code evaluation I can’t say for certain.
