[WARNING] PHP 4.4.0 Update

Just a warning, Zend Optimizer has been known not to work with the NEWEST php yet. Eaccelerator might not work either so do not upgrade if your scripts needs Zend or scared it might break eaccelerator.

Zend 2.5.10 is compatible with PHP 4.4.0 - you can download a copy from http://download.powervps.com/useful/zend.tar.gz

There have been no details released on the Eaccelerator site yet.

Tony, you sure? I'll try it later tonight.

I'd be suprised if PHP4.4 is not compatible, but do know of some php applications that will give an error because 2.5.10 appears as 2.5.1 decimally, meaning that some apps may think the new version is older than what it requires (previous version number was 2.5.9).

I am shocked at the Zend team for not using better version numbering method.
They could have gone from 2.5.9 to 2.5.91 or 2.5.6 to avoid these issues.

You can also get these files from Zend via
http://downloads.zend.com/optimizer/2.5.10/

But the installer of 2.5.10 told me that the ZendOptimizer is not compatible with PHP 4.4.0.

The relevant Cpanel forum thread is this: http://forums.cpanel.net/showthread.php?t=41224

The relevant Webhostingtalk thread is this:

So please confirm a working installation of PHP 4.4.0 with Zent 2.5.10.

Hi,

I can confirm that Zend Optimizer 2.5.10 does not work with PHP 4.4.0. However, for those who use it Ioncube have updated their loader to support this version.

Are we in risk if we don't update our php ???

We heard that it work, we heard that it doesn't work... I wouldn't update anything without being very sure that nothing will break...

Since there are issues upgrading I highly recommend you dont until they are ironed out. Please see the release notes to determine if you are at risk, but the point is moot if you can't use it.
