Also Ubuntu Server LTS 10.04 (aka Lucid Lynx) will EOF in April 2015. They have PHP 5.3.2 now (see also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases#Version_timeline) Cristian (who had recently an issue with this since the latest CiviCRM versions require PHP >= 5.3.3) -__-'' _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
