.A new module stream: `php:7.3`
RHEL 8.1 introduces `PHP 7.3`, which provides a number of new features and enhancements. Notable changes include:
* Enhanced and more flexible `heredoc` and `nowdoc` syntaxes
* The PCRE extension upgraded to PCRE2
* Improved multibyte string handling
* Support for LDAP controls
* Improved FastCGI Process Manager (FPM) logging
* Several deprecations and backward incompatible changes
For more information, see link:https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration73.php[Migrating from PHP 7.2.x to PHP 7.3.x].
Note that the RHEL 8 version of `PHP 7.3` does not support the `Argon2` password hashing algorithm.
To install the `php:7.3` stream, use:
[literal]
----
# yum module install php:7.3
----
If you want to upgrade from the `php:7.2` stream, see link:https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html-single/installing_managing_and_removing_user-space_components/index#switching-to-a-later-stream_managing-versions-of-appstream-content[Switching to a later stream].

Cross-filed case 02260327 at the Red Hat customer portal. Thank you for the request. After discussing this request with the applicable teams, the ongoing plan is to continue with the existing 7.1 and 7.2 module stream. With that being the case, I am renaming this request from the initial rebase request to a reflect that the current intention is to include the PHP 7.3 release as an additional module stream in future. - Kyle Walker Just a small correction, only php 7.2 will be shipped on 8.0 GA (no php 7.1). Ah yep! Sorry for the miscommunication Branislav. - Kyle Walker Why will the RHEL 8 version of PHP 7.3 not support the Argon2 password hashing algorithm? > Why will the RHEL 8 version of PHP 7.3 not support the Argon2 password hashing algorithm?
As PHP 7.2, because libargon2 is not available in RHEL-8
Notice in PHP < 7.2.21, and < 7.3.8, argon2 password are weak, so better to not use them.
I think that proper way to update from 7.2 to 7.3 is: # dnf module disable php # dnf module enable php:7.3 # dnf update And for memory, downgrade from 7.3 to 7.2 is: # dnf module disable php # dnf module enable php:7.2 # dnf distro-sync Disable does nothing regarding packages, so that's half a solution really. The official documentation based on DNF team recommendations says you need to remove the packages too: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html-single/installing_managing_and_removing_user_space_components/index#switching-module-streams-to-install-a-different-version-of-content_managing-versions-of-appstream-content Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
