From: qtantofaz at hotmail dot com Operating system: Windows XP PHP version: 5.5.0 Package: Unknown/Other Function Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:partial XP support
Description: ------------ I run Windows XP. When I replace PHP 5.3 with 5.5, PHP gives a Server Error. This is probably intended because officially support for XP has ended. BUT: lots of people in Africa and elsewhere use still use XP extensively. And.. I presume the core isn't OS-dependent, but many libraries are. So.. why deprecate ALL of XP? Just document which libraries need something better than XP. If the core works, anyone using XP can still run with a subset of the libraries (or none at all). Which is undoubtedly sufficient for most users (developers)! -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65130&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65130&r=mysqlcfg
