 Status:           To be documented
 Bug Type:         Reproducible crash
 Operating System: win32 only - Windows 2000 SP4
 PHP Version:      5.3.0
 New Comment:

I'd like to see PHP 5.3 work for w2k as I probably won't be able to
afford to get a better OS soon and have too much invested in what works
now ... If I would have just had the simple warning about 5.3 not
working on w2k I wouldn't have lost HOURS recently.

RE: Bruces question
"where do I obtain and include the mentioned Ws2tcpip.h and
Wspiapi.h files"

I found one, wspiapi.h, in the IPv6Kit supplied on a windows site.

"No, the solution is to use at least a 10 years old operating system.
The idea solution is to use a recent one."

Pierre,

While I appreciate what your team does more than I can possibly
express, I believe this is a shocking response. If 5.3.0 doesn't support
Windows 2000, then simply drop support for Windows 2000 in the
documentation. Fine, no problem. Like the prior comment from 'broth'
it's agonizing to break a working installation, going to 5.3, when that
version simply does not support the OS. Otherwise, users like myself are
going to waste hours debugging this mess. 

I respectfully request a change to the 'Changes made to Windows
Support' to correct the statement: "The minimum Windows version is now
Windows 2000; Windows 98, ME, and NT4 are no longer supported."

So is the only solution to return to PHP 5.2.11? 

I would really like to see this fixed.

I sure wish a notice was put on PHP 5.3.0 that is would not work with
win2000 I had PHP working!  After the load of V5.3.0 my previous V 5.1
version is corrupt!  One simple Warning note would have saved me hours!

Thanks for the concern.

PHP 5.2 works just fine in this configuration. So you can follow they
lovely adage and keep using 5.2.x with the existing apps :)
