What do I need to consider if I want to use PHP 5?
With 1&1 Linux hosting packages you have the choice between PHP 4 and PHP 5.
To distinguish a script as PHP 5, simply name the script with the file extension .php5. While the PHP developers have done their utmost to ensure compatibility, we cannot guarantee that PHP 4 scripts will function 100% correctly under PHP 5. Please note that in contrast to PHP 4, the default for the variable RegisterGlobals is "off". By default Apache uses PHP 4 for .php extension. If you don't want to rename all your scripts to .php5 you can do the following: Create a .htaccess file and place the following line
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
in it. This will tell Apache to use PHP 5 instead of PHP 4 for the extension .php in the directory the .htaccess is placed and all sub-directories under it.
You can use AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php as an alternative for or instead of AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
I started getting this error only when trying to update Module fields, and only after trying to install the CCK module.
I tried adding this line of code, but it did not help.
I'll try posting over at the forum thread to see if anyone has any ideas...
Using Drupal 6.4 (tried with both the current 6.x download and the dev snapshot - no difference.
Thanks, this worked for me...but in a roundabout way...I was just ggetting 500 errors on my modules page,when it wouldn't load.
When I added the abovementioned lines to my .htaccess file, it gave me a php memory error message....which was much more useful than the 500 error. I then upped my max memory in my php.ini from 16MB to 32MB and it is back working again.
The 1and1 faq here...
http://faq.1and1.com/scripting_languages_supported/php/16.html
that the php mmeory limit is 16MB, but when I raised it to 32MB the modules page worked again...i bet that faq is out of date.
Fingers are crossed it doesn't come back.
Thanks,
Glen
