[giammy]

hi,

looking at the webserver logs, when I click on “Upload Image”
(and got a blank page) I see various errors.

Can this problem be caused by a wrong php version?
i installed debian testing netinstall, and run the fog
installation script which installed the needed software.

The php version I have now is php5 5.4.0-3.

Can this be a problem?
Is there a php reccomended version?

thanks
giammy

You should be seeing a similar page to the one attached.
If not there could be a problem with you FOG install.

I’m trying to find out ehich is the problem

bye
giammy

[Glyn]

When I set up FOG I let the installer download & install the packages that it required, did you do this?

[giammy]

Hi,

I found out the problem: it was the PHP version.

I install fog letting the installer to download all it needs, but the first installation
was debian testing, which install php5.4, which is NOT compatible with FOG.

I reinstalled all the PC with a debian 6.04 (the last stable), which comes with
php 5.3 and everything go up and works!

thanks for the help
giammy

[Glyn]

Glad you got it working & good to know that PHP5.4 isn’t supported yet. I assume it will be in the next release.

[mpmackenna]

This is still an issue. When will PHP 5.4 be supported? What is the best way to force Debian 7 to run PHP 5.3 instead of 5.4?

[chad-bisd]

I’m pretty sure when the next version of FOG comes out, this will be fixed because it’s a pretty big code rewrite. For now, just change the code and replace the calls to the functions that are using referenced variables. There are several posts showing what to change and out. I think what you’re looking for is &$tmp

[mpmackenna]

Awesome, thanks!
