[Solved] Bump Php Version To 5.5

[paladox2014]

Hi please change php to 5.5 since mediawiki is bumping it required php version to 5.5 from 5.3.

We will be getting a new server with newer software (likely 5.6), but nothing is really decided beyond the hardware at this point. I would expect a few months wait though. If it comes online sooner, you'll know since it will be announced and promoted when it does.

 

For now, you will need to keep the older version, as there are currently no plans to upgrade Stevie or Johnny beyond 5.4.

Oh ok thanks. Would you know if the new server will be able to support more users since if it does that means it could possibly be faster. Also would we get an increase in our disk usage from 500mb to 1gb or is it staying the same.

 

Also would there be two new servers to replace the old stevie and johnny servers. and would the servers behind heliohost be upgraded.

Stevie and Johnny are not being replaced, it will be in addition to them.

 

So far, the hope is when the new box comes online, it will host Cody and a server that will have Johnny's features but Stevie's stability and restrictions on load and signups so people who need a stable Ruby/ASP.NET host have a box to use.

 

Those two won't even use all of the resources on the hardware either, so there will be room to eventually add other options as well...a multiversion PHP server was brought up in the discussion.

Ok thanks. I hope we get the multi php on that new server.
