[psrsathish]

Hello,

I have installed plesk ver 8 in my linux fc8 box and having php Version as 5.2.6, The current libxml version is 2.6.32 but I have to upgrade the libxml to latest version so can anyone provide me the exact steps to proceed the same.

Thanks in advance

you'd probably need to backport that from a src.rpm from newer version of fedora.

Dear Scott,

Can you explain me in detail so that it would be easier for me to do. Hope you will help.

Thanks in advance.

You're much better off upgrading your OS. fc8 has been end of life for years and you're running a system with several known and critical security flaws for which there are no vendor patches. If its a server I recommend you install Centos or RHEL and not use Fedora, unless you don't mind upgrading the whole server every 18 months.
