rnmcd Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 I noticed that on one of my TCH accounts that the PHP version was older than on one of my other TCH accounts. I contacted TCH Help Desk to ask them if the PHP version could be updated. They replied that they could not upgrade it because it would cause incompatibility issues on the server. What happens when software that I am running (like vBulletin) requires the newer PHP version? Seems like they (TCH) would be more open to being able to update versions of server-side programs like PHP. Any opinions? Quote
TCH-RobertM Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 Hello, With any upgrade we have to ensure the stability of all the customers on our servers. We are not going to be upgrading to php 5 until we feel it is completly stable and the backwards compatibility issues can be dealt with smoothly. If you have a specific issue please message me directly and I will be glad to look into the issue. Quote

I would have thought that TCH would put the same version on each server. Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 The current version of PHP on the servers should be 4.3.11 if you are seeing something different open a help desk ticket and inform the techs. Quote

If you have a specific issue please message me directly and I will be glad to look into the issue. I completely understand the desire to make sure we have a stabile environment to work in before moving to PHP 5. However, is there a plan to move to PHP 5? If so, what is the approximate elapsed time we are looking at before PHP 5 is available? Thanks for any guidance on this issue. Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Welcome to the forum, eric. TCH-Robert already answered your question. We are not going to be upgrading to php 5 until we feel it is completly stable and the backwards compatibility issues can be dealt with smoothly. So, there is no plans at this moment or a known time when it may upgraded. Quote
rnmcd Posted December 22, 2005 Author Posted December 22, 2005 Will TCH move one of my accounts to a server that has a Php ver. 4.4.1 installed on it? Some of my accounts are on a server with Php 4.4.1. Quote
TCH-Rob Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 As a moderator, I cannot answer that question. You would want to open a ticket to ask that question. Quote
