PHP Agent support for the following library, framework and OS versions will be discontinued and New Relic recommends you upgrade to the latest version supported by the vendor:
- Amazon Linux 2 (AL2): Support ends November 15, 2026
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 (RHEL 8): Support ends November 15, 2026

Important
For installations using an unsupported PHP version or platform, it's highly recommended that you disable the auto-update mechanisms for the PHP agent packages. This can be done by adding the PHP agent packages to an exclusion list for package upgrades. Or you could version pin the PHP agent package to an agent version that supports the old, unsupported feature(s). Failure to prevent upgrades may result in a newer agent release being installed and the removal of support for the required, unsupported features. This would disrupt APM data collection.
The PHP agent packages that are affected are:
- newrelic-php5
- newrelic-php5-common
- newrelic-daemon
