Gnupg extension error after PHP upgrade

I have followed the steps in this tutorial to upgrade PHP 7.4 to 8.3. I have upgraded the PHP as well the modules and the system is running on the browser. However, when I want to run the upgrade or healthcheck script on the command line, it shows me this error:

PHP Fatal error:  You must enable the gnupg extension to use Passbolt. in /etc/passbolt/requirements.php on line 31

I have read the forum and teste this command

php8.3 -i | grep gnupg

and this is the output

/etc/php/8.3/cli/conf.d/20-gnupg.ini,
gnupg
gnupg support => enabled

hey @wwiit welcome to the forum!

Right now we don’t support php 8.3 as it was just released and we need some time to make sure it works.

For your particular update issue though I would recommend following one of our guides for migrating to a new server which has a a more recent version of php installed by default instead of adding a ppa and trying to update that way

Thanks @clayton .
However, the problem was not setting the default PHP version to newly installed 8.3 version. I did the sudo update-alternatives --set php /usr/bin/php8.3 and everything is working fine again.
