I already had this problem last year, when I tried to upgrade from PHP 5.3.0 to 5.3.5; after a couple of mails, you dismissed me by saying my version wasn't updated and that I should download the latest version from the Downloads page...but that was what I had done and it hadn't worked. So, I stuck with version 3.5.0 and waited. Today, I tried to download latest version 5.3.9, but I got the same error - that you can see in http://i904.photobucket.com/albums/ac242/luciensabre/install_error.png. What can I do to upgrade my version? Test script: --- // Expected result: // Actual result: -- // -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60756&edit=1
