DesktopServer version 3.5.2 has a new direct deployment feature to get your WordPress websites from your desktop to your hosting provider in just a few clicks.

To do this Cloudways must support File System Direct.

File System Direct is a (PHP) feature that allows WordPress to write files to the local file system on the server. At the moment it does not so we can't use this feature in DesktopServer.

Hi there,

as you can read here: https://secure.php.net/manual/en/pcre.installation.php
with PHP 7.0.3 the minimum required version of PCRE is 8.38.

Your servers still use PCRE version 8.35. Dunno if I am the first who experiences this problem, but this leads to PHP sigfault crashes in my applications (TYPO3, Shopware) and they do not respond any more.

Any chance you're updating to PCRE 8.38 in the near future?

Thanky a lot,
Wolfgang
