Updates no longer working

    I’d got WP set up to use SSH (using keys) to apply updates and its been working fine for months.

    All went well until WordPress upgraded itself to 5.3.2 and now updates no longer work – they report that SSH2 is not installed.

    I’ve temporarily fixed it by setting FS_METHOD back to direct but that means having all the wordpress core files writeable by the web server process which I’d rather not have.

    I found the problem – php had updated itself on Dec 20th and when you did an info.php call it didn’t show any SSH features, but calling php -i showed them.

    I’m running php-fpm and it looks like it restarted in an inconsistent state and didn’t load all its extensions. Restarting fpm-php resolved the issue
