[Answered] Joomla error

[rezadh]

Hi,

I've just managed to setup Joomla, but soon I redirected to control panel, I received error notification like:

 

Error
We have detected that your server is using PHP 5.6.40 which is obsolete and no longer receives official security updates by its developers. The Joomla! Project recommends upgrading your site to PHP 7.2 or later which will receive security updates at least until 2020-11-30. Please ask your host to make PHP 7.2 or a later version the default version for your site. If your host is already PHP 7.2 ready please enable PHP 7.2 on your site's root and 'administrator' directories – typically you can do this yourself through a tool in your hosting control panel, but it's best to ask your host if you are unsure.

 

should I simply ignoring it?

 

TIA

No you shouldn't ignore it.

 

Head to MultiPHP Manager in cPanel and select your website where you are having the Joomla installation, then select PHP 7.3 (ea-php73) from the menu on the top right of the page and apply the changes. That will fix the problem.
