+## Updating
+
+If the update is performed from Monarc v2.12.5 or earlier, the update of php to v8.x is necessary.
+It would be recommended to perform php version upgrade to php 8.1.  
+In case if on the Monarc server used Ubuntu distributive, then it would be a good move to upgrade it to 22.04 or later,    
+because it comes with available php8.1 by default.
+
+
+The specific php packages that can be used (example with php8.0 / Ubuntu):    
+`sudo apt-get install -y php8.1 php8.1-cli php8.1-common php8.1-mysql php8.1-zip php8.1-gd php8.1-mbstring php8.1-curl php8.1-xml php8.1-bcmath php8.1-intl php8.1-imagic`
+
+
+`php8` module also has to be enabled for Apache and previous used version disabled (in case if was enabled):
+
+- `a2dismod php7.4` (could be different one enabled, to check: `sudo a2query -m`)
+
+- `a2enmod php8.1`
+
+
+The standard steps to perform the Monarc update:
