How to update the temporary path in WHMCS?

The system’s sys_temp_dir setting in PHP determines the temporary directory that WHMCS uses. PHP by default makes use of the temporary directory that comes with the operating system. But we can change this value by altering the PHP settings of the server.

We must change your server’s PHP configuration in order to alter the temporary path that WHMCS uses.

Steps to update the temporary path in WHMCS

1. Firstly, on the server, we must look for the PHP configuration file. Depending on the operating system and PHP installation, the file’s location may change.

2. Then open a text editor and the PHP configuration file.

3. Now check the PHP setup for the sys_temp_dir directive. We can include it at the end of the file if it is missing.

4. In order to define the required temporary directory, modify the sys_temp_dir directive.

5. Save the modifications to the PHP configuration file.

6. For the modifications to take effect, finally, restart the web server. Depending on the server configuration and operating system, different restart techniques may be used for the web server.

WHMCS will begin using the new temporary path supplied in the sys_temp_dir directive after upgrading the PHP settings. Ensure the new directory is present and the web server process has the appropriate write rights.
