lovesmith Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 hello friends, I have a customized media wiki site in our host using php 4. Now they are upgrading to php 5, so i m now required to upgrade my media wiki codes to php 5 as well. So is there any easier way to upgrade it to php 5. As i have customized media wiki site, i need to recode to php 5 version and there are so many files to be recoded and it will take a long time for me. So it will be better if someone suggest me that do i have other alternative?

PFMaBiSmAd Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 There are very few backward incompatible changes between php4 and php5. Almost all php4 code will work under php5, when using equivalent php.ini settings - http://www.php.net/manual/en/migration5.php However, you will likely find problems due to configuration differences in php.ini settings. A lot of web hosts and programmers did not learn and follow configuration recommendations concerning depreciated functions. Your best method would be to setup a local development computer with php5 using the target system's php.ini settings and test your application.
