The Midgard RPMs are finally built thanks to everaldo who was kind enough to fix the last issues. There's still some more work as a major cleanup of the RPMs needs to be done, but at least Midgard 1.8 is now installable for almost all RPM based versions of Linux. potyl — about 1 month ago tags: everaldo,Midgard,Midgard

    PHP4 end-of-life and Midgard

    PHP 4.4.9 was released on Aug 7th 2008. It is the last release of the PHP4 line, and no security fixes or other improvements will be made available. This makes it dangerous to run public web sites with PHP4. The Midgard Project would like to urge all ... [More] users of PHP4 to upgrade to PHP5.

    The Midgard 1.8 ("Thor") series of Midgard support both PHP4 and PHP5 fully. Therefore the easiest path to upgrade legacy Midgard installations is to first upgrade to Thor, keeping PHP4, and then switch to PHP5.

    All upcoming Midgard versions, starting from the 1.9 ("Ragnaroek") release scheduled for September drop support of PHP4 in compliance to the GoPHP5 initiative.

    The PHP project has released a migration guide. [Less]
