EasyApache makes it seem fairly simple to perform a basic upgrade. However, I don't necessarily know all the options available and how they should be set. A search shows a lot of questions about EasyApache, but I didn't find any place where each option was explained.

Basically there are 7 options available when EasyApache is run. How do we determine which to run? (I am using the server for web hosting). I see Option 6 suggested often. Option 7 seems like it will do what I want (keep existing configuration), but it warns to use at your own risk. While everything is "use at your own risk", the hard-coded warning concerns me. Can I use this option?

Can anybody explain where to find my current setting for these? Or what is the most common setting? Some I know where to find (php version, etc), but some are not so obvious (Raise FD_SETSIZE to 16384)

Thanks for the help.

Do at least the ones I've left

Allso GD,Mcrypt and OpenSSL are good ideas

To find out what your current settings are, just make a file called info.php and then put this only in it:

<? phpinfo(); ?>

Then goto the file via browser and you can see your current configuration.

Leave all the default options and then add these under PHP: Version 4.3.7, Curl, Curl SSL, Dom XSLT, Flash, GD, GetText, Imap, Mcrypt, OpenSSL, Freetype Support, WDDX, XML RPC

So do you use Option 6 and set everything, or try option 7 and just fix the PHP setup?
