Is it possible to upgrade Zend Version 1.10 to the latest version? Also, I assume I can't upgrade the PHP version (5.2 currently) to the latest as I'm running an Older Zend Version.
Can someone give me some insight here?
You should be able to upgrade to the last released version of ZF 1.x. (1.12.20) with minimal changes. I would expect this ZF version to work on PHP 7.
There are some docs for migrating a ZF1 app to ZF2 (not ZF3), but this is no small task (basically a rewrite of your application).
Both your ZF version and PHP version are past end of life (i.e. no longer receiving updates), so it's good that you are planning an upgrade.

Is Zend Framework 2 work with PHP version 5.3.2?. During the skeleton application installation i got following message.Is this just a warning or it will cause any problem in future?
D:\web\Apache24\htdocs\zendsample>composer create-project -n -sdev zendframework
/skeleton-application D:\web\Apache24\htdocs\zendsample
Your version of PHP, 5.3.22, is affected by CVE-2013-6420 and cannot safely perf
orm certificate validation, we strongly suggest you upgrade.
Installing zendframework/skeleton-application (2.4.11)
Make thinks short :
With PHP 5.3 you'll not able to use Traits and new features php 5.4 wich is used in most of vendor plugin and the framework itself.
Usually it's strongly recommanded to upgrade your PHP version.
From this link PHP version maintained PHP 5.3 is no longer maintained since 2014. It's antique. You'll be face to security issues and no evolution of your code will be possible.
To answer your question :
You'll not able to use traits
You'll faceing security issues
You'll not able to improve your code withe best practises (wich evolves permanently)
your views can't use short version for echoing stuff <?='toto'?>
All new features linked above are not supported with your version if it's used in the framework, you'll can't run the framework itself.
I recommend upgrade your version at least at 5.6 or 7 for a good longevity support
EDIT : 5.5 to 5.6 because 5.5 no longer supported.
After getting this message i just upgraded my php to 5.5.
How do I migrate a site I've made using cakephp 1.1 to a newer version compatible with my PHP version 5.4.7?
Read all the migration guides and upgrade accordingly:
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/appendices.html
You can also leverage the upgrade shell of cakephp or the enhanced one (only for experts, though).
This should make it possible to upgrade.
But 1.1 to 2.3 is still quite a bit of work, though.
I am trying to downgrade a Cakephp project from latest version to 1.3.15 so it could work on my current server setup, I don't want to upgrade my PHP version because I don't want to screw with my server design, security and infrastructure besides I have a lot of projects on the same server which were designed to work with this exact PHP version, I am a total Cakephp noob but I am working with CodeIgniter, any ideas ?
I am using 'MJS_Controller_PathRouter' in any ancient Zend Framework version 0.6 and PHP 5.1.6. When I run this in a newer php version e.g. 5.2.x or 5.3.x, it is throwing this error:
Declaration of
MJS_Controller_Router_PathRoute::__construct()
must be compatible with that of
Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Interface::__construct() in
/opt/ezxwebadmin-versions/ezxwebadmin_2.11.5/Library/MJS/Controller/Router/PathRoute.php
on line 34
I would like to remove this enhanced rewrite router and upgrade our application to use a newer Zend Framework version. Our web application doesn't use any of the classes provided by Zend and we are only utilizing the MVC architecture and rewrite functionality from Zend framework.
Now could any one advise which Zend Framework version would be best for us to upgrade to?
The error you are getting is actually a PHP strict coding standards error and should be fairly easy to fix. Just open up Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Interface and MJS_Controller_Router_PathRoute and compare the parameters for the __construct method. They need to be the same, so change your class to match the parameters in the interface.
Zend Framework requires PHP 5.2.4. ZF2 will require PHP 5.3+. PHP 5.1.6 is almost 5 years old so you really should be upgrading (or planning to). If you are using something like CentOS with really ancient PHP packages, you might want to consider switching to Zend Server community edition (which is free). This can be installed with Yum and will give you more recent versions of PHP.
You should take a close look at the Zend Framework Migration Notes starting at 0.8
Then look through the Zend Framework Download Archives and upgrade your framework version by version (follow the versions listed in the migration notes) to either get to a version that works with the PHP you have or (ideally) the latest version: 1.11.x
What are the differences between PHP 5.2.x and 5.3.x?
Because all extensions are made separately for these.
Thanks a lot.
PHP 5.3 is a newer version with a number of new features (closures, namespaces, etc.). Is is the current stable version for the PHP project. PHP 5.2 is an older version, which is now heading towards the end of its support cycle - now only important security issues are being fixed. If you start a new project, start it with PHP 5.3.
When changes in PHP core are made that change the structure enough that extensions can no longer be compatible - the second digit in the version number is incremented (5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3). The first digit is for very major changes changing the whole language (like between PHP 4 and 5). Between 5.2 and 5.3, you can expect source code compatibility (though some incompatibilities exist) but not binary module compatibility.
You can find an exhaustive list of backwards incompatible changes from 5.2 to 5.3 on PHP.net.
PHP extensions depends on the phpapi version among other things, along with the Zend Module API version and the Zend Extension API version, which as far as I'm aware, changes at each PHP version because of the core changes made to the language. This explains why each PHP version has a new build for each extension.
You can find the answer in PHP official website.
