Facebook Sdk V4.0 One Good Hosting

[erttai]

Hi i am looking for a free hosting that allows facebook sdk v4 without problems.

At the moment i know that the host needs php5.4, and i was in troubles with ipv6 so the curl may be able to change to ipv4 ... or something.

 

Simple, if u know a free host where facebook sdk v4 runs, let me know. In case, u runs the facebook api in this host explain me how, pls

Thx

Theres not too many hosts that support php newer than 5.3. This'll change with time, but right now we only support 5.3, as do many others.

 

The reason many places aren't upgrading quickly is because the newer php versions are not completely backwards compatible like the previous ones were. If we upgraded, many users would be left with broken software. For instance, the software I use won't run on 5.5 at all, and works but spews tons of deprecated errors on 5.4.

@wolstech, that's strange, because there are just 2 functions marked as deprecated in 5.4: see http://www.php.net/manual/en/migration54.deprecated.php

 

The main reason why not many uses 5.4 or older is because the mysql_* functions are gone. These are all marked as deprecated since 5.3 (see: http://www.php.net/manual/en/migration53.deprecated.php)

And a lot of (old) software still uses these funtions to connect with the MySQL databases.

Those apparently didn't spew deprecated warnings in 5.3 for some reason. Those functions are the exact reason why my software doesn't work in anything newer. I get tons of warnings about the MySQL commands.

 

The commands are scattered throughout every one of the hundred or so files that make the system up. My software is all custom and I don't have time to rewrite it using mysqli (which has no benefit aside from new php version support anyway when you develop procedurally as I do...)
