Upcoming Web Stack Changes
Over the next weeks, we will be making a few EasyApache releases that are going to give you new features, as well as making some changes that we wanted you to be aware of. One of the new features has been a long time coming. We"ve been hard at work on EasyApache 4 and MultiPHP, and we appreciate your patience. Recently we"ve tackled some major bugs with the EA3 Apache and PHP stack, and we"re almost ready to release our new features!
The first major EasyApache release will be 3.30. It"s going to bring the latest version of PHP 5.6 to the table, with updated Zend Guard and IonCube loaders. This release of PHP 5.6 will only support CentOS 6 and CentOS 7.
EasyApache 3.30 will also provide an optmod for Zend OPcache. OPcache has been available since PHP 5.5+, but it needed a little tweaking of the configuration file to enable. EasyApache is going to place a commented out version of OpCache's recommended settings into your global php configuration. This will make it quick and easy to enable OPcache after compiling it in. For more information on these settings, reading over PHP's documentation will get you ready to go.
We"re also updating ModSecurity to 2.9.0. This version of ModSecurity provides a lot of cool features and allows tighter integration with the existing ModSecurity tools in cPanel & WHM version 11.48+. To allow customers to use these new features, we are adding a RawOpt for ModSecurity. This will allow you to change configuration flags during the compilation of ModSecurity and enable these features. Head over to the SpiderLabs GitHub page for more information on ModSecurity 2.9.0's features:

Hi! Once we release MultiPHP to EDGE, CloudLinux will have the opportunity to make any required changes on their end to ensure things work properly. Stay tuned to the EDGE list for more information.0
