To upgrade the version of Node.js that you have installed on your cPanel server, you will need to follow these steps:
-
Log in to your cPanel account and click on the "Select PHP Version" icon under the "Software" section.
-
Click on the "Switch to PHP Options" button.
-
Scroll down to the "Additional .ini directives" field and enter the following line:
extension=nodejs.so
-
Click on the "Save" button to apply the changes.
-
Use the
node -v
command to check the version of Node.js that is currently installed on your server. -
If you want to upgrade to a newer version of Node.js, you can download the desired version from the official Node.js website (https://nodejs.org/) and then follow the instructions for installing it on your server.
-
Once the new version of Node.js is installed, use the
node -v
command again to verify that the upgrade was successful.
Note: These steps assume that you have root access to your server and are able to install software and make system-level changes. If you do not have root access or are not familiar with these tasks, you may need to ask your hosting provider or a system administrator for assistance.
