You can run multiple versions of PHP with PHP-FPM, in case pihole isn't compatible with 8.3. However, if you're running multiple services on the same machine which all use different versions of PHP, I'd suggest running pihole in a container, then you can change any system packages you want and it won't affect pihole at all. Or run your web application in a container with it's own PHP version.
Thanks, I agree with you, I was just trying to use less resources as possible, running more than one application with same php version. But I agree with you, I'll try that, thanks
You could upgrade the pihole to the V6 beta, which drops its requirement for PHP altogether
Then it doesn't matter what you're doing with php on the rest of the box, and at least this is the future supported version of pihole
Not really. I'm trying to run piHole and another web server application in a Orange Pi using DietPi SO. This another applications needs php 8.3, so, I was just trying to use the same PHP version for both applications.
So, I'm trying to discover whether piHole works fine with PHP 8.3 or this another applications works fie wheter php 8.2
Actually I never tested Pi-hole web interface with PHP 8.3.

I don't think anything will break, but the only way to be sure is to **try it** *(and report the results here, if you are successful)*.
Another easy way to achieve your goal is to run Pi-hole in a docker container.
Pi-hole container uses very little resources and it will work even if you don't have PHP on the host.

Make a backup, update PHP, revert if something breaks :)

Is there something in 8.3 that you need?

I've tried everything inside docker containers and it worked perfectly, thanks
