Dear colleagues, I have to make an important decision and before that I would ask you for an advice. I want to integrate PmWiki with MariaDB using PHP7. How?
The story: I use PmWiki for many, many years. Last summer my main server hardware have to be retired after more than 10 years of continuous work under Debian (last version: Wheezy). An important part of my wiki (http://www.dybczynski.pl/Piotr and other, non public) is a set of pages using database (currently Maria DB) as the source of information. I had to move my PmWiki server to a temporary place and it appeared, that database cookbooks (Update Form and SelectQuerry) do not work under PHP7. I had to switch them off but such a situation cannot last any longer. In a few days I will receive a new hardware for my main server. I will install Debian Stretch on it. The only option I know about is to install old PHP5 on this new server. I do not like such solutions. My question is: could you direct me to some other way of integrating database with PmWiki? I need to display subsets of data basing on user selection. It would be great to have also the possibility to modify database records by a wiki user (this option would not be publicly available of course). I am an experienced C programmer but have a very limited knowledge on PHP. Thanks in advance for your help, Piotr -- /************************************************************************** dr Piotr A.
