a version that works with php 4.0.6 ?

[Thorsten]

Hi Dave,

okay, let's try this:

Search for all the superglobal variables like $_SERVER, $_REQUEST and $ENV like $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"].

Change them from $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] to $PHP_SELF.

Then it should work.

Thanks Thorsten

I presume this is just in the index.php admin/index.php and installer.php files?

also - I only change the PHP_SELF bit to $PHP_SELF wherever it occurs?

or do i replace the entire variable?

Hi Dave,

you have to change it in every PHP file of the FAQ.

... and change the whole variable: $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] -> $PHP_SELF

or for example $_REQUEST["id"] -> $id

Just so I am clear :

$_SERVER -> $PHP_SELF
$_REQUEST -> $PHP_SELF
$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] -> $PHP_SELF
but
$_SERVER["id"] -> $ID

any others beside $_SERVER and $_REQUEST ?

$ENV ??

Hi,

$_SERVER -> $PHP_SELF
$_REQUEST -> $PHP_SELF

WRONG

$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] -> $PHP_SELF


but
$_SERVER["id"] -> $id

correct....

any others beside $_SERVER and $_REQUEST ?

$ENV ??

yes...

It would be safer and easier if you would upgrade your version of PHP and MySQL....

I changed EVERY superglobal but it still won't install

Time to give up I think!

Thanks so much for all your support - I will be back in touch when our server team upgrade!

All the best

Meikel - could you possibly translate your post please ??

sorry, my 'english' is very bad.

Code: Select all

if (isset ($HTTP_SERVER_VARS)) 
    { 
        $_SERVER = &$HTTP_SERVER_VARS; 
    }

will not work ?

example:

Code: Select all

$_REQUEST['test'] = 'OK';
function test()
{
  printf ('%s', (isset($_REQUEST['test'])) ? $_REQUEST['test'] : 'empty');
}
test();

PHP 4.0.6 ($_REQUEST is not 'superglobal'):
output: 'empty'

PHP >= 4.1.x ($_REQUEST is 'superglobal'):
output: 'OK'

Thanks Meikel

Thorsten - I don't suppose there is any chance of getting a copy of v1.1.5 to play with is there?

cheers
