  1. Connect to the server via SSH.

  2. For example, to disable the bcmath extension for PHP 8.1 use the command below:

    # plesk bin php_handler --extension-disable bcmath -id plesk-php81-fpm

    Hi, is there a way to enable these modules via CLI? We had 20+ PHP handlers and multiple servers. It will be time-consuming for us to enable all modules 1 by 1 in all alp-php and in all servers. Thanks
