PHP on LQ Upgraded to 5.1.x
While I usually don't announce system level changes, I felt this one was large enough to deserve it. As of about a minute ago we're now running PHP 5.1.x (up from 4.4.x). This upgrade should increase the performance of the site in general and will make a couple nice new features of PHP available to us. One of the main reasons I am announcing this is that due to the myriad changes from 4.4->5.1 we may be introducing new bugs here. We did make an effort to test this out on the dev site, but the live site tends to shake things out in a whole different way. If you notice anything odd please let us know ASAP. Thanks.

Wow. That was fast. :)

Great!
No problems here. |
Jeremy, I am still awaiting your reply for the mail I sent you a couple of weeks ago. Realize that you are busy currently, but no problem because I'm busy as well with my examinations and it will take at least another week for me to get back to coding full time. Just wanted to know whether you have received the mail I sent or not...
Good to know that you've upgraded to PHP 5 though. Will watch for any errors, bugs etc. |
I have been noticing that the search(username search) has been slow, and I'm prettys sure it's on the linuxquestions side. This may not be due to the new upgrade, but rather just a lot of people using the search at once. Nothing I'm overly worried about, but you did say

Hi,
I just wanted to let you know that the "Download Linux" (http://iso.linuxquestions.org) link in the Main Menu doesn't work for me (I keep getting a timeout). |

Congrats on the successful upgrade guys. I'm honestly surprised and honored that my user account is still active after being idle so long (Last Login 4/2/01). Anyways, keep up the good work!

a minor thing i've noticed: before the upgrade, when i was typing-up a quick reply i could refresh the page before posting, like, to see the freshest state of the thread right before posting (to make sure the question wasn't answered already, etc.)... when the page would reload, i could proceed to hit the post button cuz what i typed would still be there in the box... now, however, if i refresh the page, what i've written will be gone when the page loads again...

That isn't related to the PHP upgrade, but the forum redesign (which uses AJAX).
