[livesupport-dev] LS under PHP5 - Airtime Development Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

import

I spent some time trying to create a gentoo ebuild for LiveSupport, and
(long story short) I ended up having to emerge php5.

while I'm not generally aware of the differences between php4 and php5,
I just gave it a try. while the HTML UI does start up, I do get error
messages, and I can't actually log in.

was LS tried before on php5? is it supposed to work?

some of the error messages I get:

Warning:
parse_url(http://localhost:3344ls_scheduler_urlPrefix/ls_scheduler_xmlRpcPrefix)
[function.parse-url]: Unable to parse url in
/usr/var/LiveSupport/htmlUI/var/ui_schedulerPhpClient.class.php on line 410

Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in
/usr/var/LiveSupport/htmlUI/var/localizer/data.inc.php on line 153

I have tryed it with php5 (gentoo-ebuild i posted before) and it doesn't
work at some points. I ended up with masking php5. Some like classes (->)
doesn't work the same for php5.

Greetings,

Stefan

ps. btw did you try the CVS ebuild?

no, I made separate packages, just added the whole portage tree to the
svn source tree, see here:
http://code.campware.org/projects/livesupport/browser/trunk/livesupport/etc/portage/

if you set your PORTDIR_OVERLAY to livesupport/etc/portage/ , it should
work.

but: as the quite recent PEAR modules are already requiring dev-lang/php
instead of dev-php/php, it basically bumps up your PHP to PHP5 - and it
seems LS doesn't work with PHP5 just yet Sad

thanks...

it is, but do you think this would be such a huge task to accomplish?
are you thinking of fixing this?

(BTW, we're using subversion by now)

Hi folks,

between PHP4 and PHP5 they changed some oo-related behavior.
One basic thing is that now references instead of copys are standard. The
code $a = $b, in PHP4 creates new variable $a containing the value of $b. In
PHP5 it is an reference, like $a = &$b before, so $a and $b are just two
names for the same thing. Of course, this can cause some unwanted behavior
if $b is changed and $a have to keep old value.

So we would have to decide if it makes much sence, at this time, to develop
a second branch for PHP5, or if we concentrate of the features as long PHP4
is standard.

and is it possible to write code that works on both php4 and php5?

can php5 be made to work like php4 with some php.ini settings?

Howdy, Stranger!
