Problem with PHP Version 6.0.0-dev

Post by JeDuke » Wed Jan 12, 2011 4:15 pm

Hello everybody,
I'm installing 1.6, a fresh install. My ISP 1and1 has PHP4, so I edited .htaccess to include PHP5. Now I realize the version of 5 they're running is PHP Version 5.2.17. Not enough. So I updated .htaccess to include the line AddType x-mapp-php6 .php .php3 .php4 .htm .html. Pretty standard so far.

Now Joomla gives me error messages aplenty, what do I need to do? Thanks!!

php 5.2.17 should be OK to install Joomla 1.6 (at least, according to the docs).

What kind of errors did you get when trying to install with 5.2.17?

No, alas, 5.2.17 is not enough. I got this message: 5.2.24 necessary.

But, o, marvel of all marvels, it is working today!!! Thanks. I wouldn't have tried again without you!!!

Interesting. That's good to know.

Something tells me it could have to do with the fact that I complained to my ISP (1and1.com) yesterday. That was quick!!!

Umm... There is no PHP 5.2.24. The installer lists PHP 5.2.4 as the minimum requirement. I've run locally on 5.2.13 without issue.

Interesting. One of the technical requirements pages says that PHP 5.2+ is necessary, so that should probably be updated.

http://www.joomla.org/technical-requirements.html

(see the Joomla 1.6 section of this page).

But, another page definitely says 5.2.4 is required (and this page is more specifically for 1.6):

http://docs.joomla.org/Joomla_1.6_techn ... quirements

So, PHP 5.2.4 is correct and my earlier posting was inaccurate.

Right, 5.2.4, this was a typo. Sorry.

I'm running Joomla 1.6.2 on PHP 5.2.17 Not receiving any error messages. It also worked with 1.6.0 and 1.6.1
