Okay,

I've been using the last stable version of Uniform server 15.0.2 which support PHP 8.3

But as you all knows, they've released PHP v8.4 time ago and they might release v8.5 close to the end of this year.!

( 1 ) I hit to php dot net website and downloaded from PHP For Windows VS17 x64 Non Thread Safe (2025-Jan-15 11:07:36)
( 2 ) I've extracted the downloaded file "php-8.4.3-nts-Win32-vs17-x64.zip" and renamed it to "php83"
( 3 ) added the files [ php_development.ini - php_production.ini - php_test.ini - php-cli.ini ] which copied from original "php83" folder

( 4 ) renamed "ext" folder to "extensions" inside the new "php83"

(5) replaced with the old one "php83" in "core" directory

but didn't worked! so any help ?!

Thanks

Still no! :( I'm sorry

I wonder why they do not set Uniform server controller as
Boilerplate! where if any new php version releases
i'll just download and extract it, then rename it to this fixed pattern "php[\d]+.[\d]+" (like 8.4 or 8.5 or 8.6 ..etc.)
then copy it to /core/ and it will automatically creates "/core\apache2\conf\extra_us/" the file "php[\d]+.[\d]+.conf" (since it only needs to change files path inside so if it known already then it can be automatic created).

also the menu can be more dynamic where it detect any folder in "/core/" like php81, php82, php83 ... etc. so it just be PHP 8.1, PHP 8.2, PHP 8.3 .. etc.

I'm not desktop applications programmer and maybe be this idea is very stupid and can't be done! but consider i'm thinking loudly :)
