I have installed Wamp 2 and copied all the Joomla 3 folder files into the 'www' folder in wamp. when I try to install Joomla I get a message that I need a php version of atleast 5.3.1 or more but my wamp shows my phpversion is 5.3. Am confused, i need your help
The minimum PHP version required for Joomla 3.x is now 5.3.10. This is because of the Bcrypt password encryption method used for an improvement in security.
My suggestion would be to simply scrap the wampserver version you're currently using and download the latest version (2.5) which includes PHP 5.5.12 and MySQ; 5.6.17.
This will ensure you're Joomla installation will run smoothly.
Always ensure you're running the latest version of anything you use in the web development world

I have an old installation of TYPO3 (6.4) and I want to move it to another supplier. I can export everything but I cannot install a working server that can run the applications from the old website.
I am sure it has something to do with PHP and my solution I think would be to install PHP 5.4.4 on either Debian 7 or a newer Debian distribtion.
Can anyone help me out? Thank you :)
There never was a TYPO3 version 6.4. maybe 6.0.4 or 6.2.4 ?
you can try to install a virtual maschine with an old linux image with that old PHP version.
But that should be only local and only for viewing the old site.
In general you don't need a working server as all neccessary data is in the database (and filesystem).
Install a TYPO3 verion 7 (also outdated, but runs on PHP 7.2) as an intermediate step and insert a copy of the old database and the filesystem (fileadmin/*). Then run upgrade wizard (do an upgrade for all extensions as possible)
Repeat for TYPO3 versions 8, 9 until your database is converted to latest version and matching extensions.
Meanwhile you probably need to change the rendering as the old installation was probably based on CSC (css_styled_content) while there is FSC (fluid_styled_content) which resuls in other HTML markup and other CSS.
Or was it even a 4.6?
Then you need a prior step with TYPO3 6.2 to convert all file references to FAL. therefore you need an old PHP 5.6 to execute the upgrade wizards. (stay with a local virtual machine)
I have the latest version of MAMP installed but i want it to run PHP version 5.4.
That version is included in the MAMP file dir. It is located…
-> bin/php/php5.4.42
but in the preferences pane there are only 2 PHP version options: 5.6.10 and 7
I want to do this a part of troubleshooting. i have a Drupal install and am getting the dreaded ‘White Screen of Death’. I’m trying anything and everything to get it working!
MAMP lets you choose from the last two versions of PHP installed in bin/php. If you want to use 5.4.42, just leave this folder and another one of your choice inside this directory (move the others somewhere else so you have a copy, just in case). When you restart MAMP you'll be able to choose your preferred PHP version in the Preferences.
You can download more versions at https://www.mamp.info/en/downloads/
The easier way is to use other localwebserver called Ampps, and after installing it you can choose the version you want by the simple interface it provide.
You click on PHP ==> Change PHP version, and it will show you versions from 5.3 to 7.0.

I am installing SuiteCRM 7.1 on
Windows 7
Apache 2.4
PHP 7.0.4
MySQL 5.6
I am following step by step instructions from suitecrm.com/wiki/index.php/Installation...allation_of_SuiteCRM
This is a local installation and I am not going to send emails. I am going to evaluate whether this is good enough for client's requirements. Based on my findings, I will recommend it to them.
I have tested APACHE, PHP and MYSQL connectivity and all of them work fine.
The installation goes from System Requirements to Database Confiuration & Site Configuration and after filling out all the data there, when I click on NEXT, I see some 25+ messages like this
"Deprecated: Methods with the same name as their class will not be
constructors in a future version of PHP; SugarView has a deprecated
constructor in
C:\Users\Hornigold\MyWebSite\MyCRM\include\MVC\View\SugarView.php on
line 44 ?"
And when I click NEXT here, nothing happens..... What do I do.
Installing SuiteCRM 7.1 requires PHP version 5 not version 7. There is some active development in the latest version to support PHP version 7. However it is not ready for production purposes.
An alternative method to installing SuiteCRM on a windows desktop machine is via the bitnami installer.

I'm brand new to web dev and I've installed Joomla to my website. For whatever reason I can't do hardly anything because my php version is only 5.3 according to Joomla.
However, from my cpanel I changed the php to 5.5.
How do I get Joomla to update the php version?
Can i upgrade the PHP version under wampserver instead of whole?
Because current latest version of wampserver gives 5.4.3 version, but the latest version of php is 5.5.4.
How can i upgrade it?
EDIT :
Wampserver provides either 5.4.3 or older version. What I'm trying to do is Download latest PHP version from php's official site and than copy that into the wampserver. So that i can select toggle between newer and older version.
This is how wampserver control panel will look like after adding a version of php

I GOT MY ANSWER :
A type of handler is required to handle PHP 5.5, which is not built current handler supports 5.4 < versions. The handler is provided by IONCUBE.
This is what i found -
"Ioncube for PHP5.5 is not yet released as of 13/09/2013, they say they are waiting for PHP 5.5 to become stable and secure and hosting providers to adopt PHP 5.5 before they release their upgrade. They comment that it can take a year or more for hosting companies to adopt new versions of PHP and this I guess is their schedule."
