Php 5.3.x

[Bob Crabb]

What is the plan for upgrading the TCH servers to PHP 5.3.x?

 

I'm not in any great hurry for this; the reason why I ask is because there are so many features and functions that have become deprecated in 5.3.x, I wonder how much time we have to check everything out before the upgrade.

 

For those of you who are not aware of the details, here is a link to the list of deprecated features and functions:

Question is better suited for the help desk since it's a server related issue.

Bob,

 

We gave PHP 5.3 a spin a month ago and discovered that there are no Zend Optimizer binaries available for this version of PHP. As far as i know this has not changed, therefore, we have no immediate plans to upgrade to 5.3 and we will advise in advance once we do.

Dick,

 

Thank you for the information. I'll keep watch on the forums for progress and/or notice of upgrade plans.
