CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi.

I have been trying to install scms on my local machine. All went well until I reached the point of actual installation, the lcoal page was as normal (http://localhost/cmsmadesimple/install/) but at the top of the page running down the screen I got the following:

Then the normal install screen at the bottom of the webpage. Can anyone help as this is driving me nuts

We don't support php 5.3

You may want to look at this thread I posted.

http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 361.0.html

If your using one of the latest XAMPP OR WAMP installs on your local machine then you'll have a newer version of PHP then CMS supports.

I'm a complete newbie on this so maybe someone else will come along and confirm or correct my answer.

A host I use for a number of other CMS Made Simple installs has just upgraded from 5.2.x to 5.3.0 - will you be looking at supporting 5.3.x in the near future?

a quick search of the forum reveals the answer

Thanks jmcgin51 but I did search and found it returned results that weren't relevant to my question.  I also checked the CMS MS roadmap, but that also didn't mention anything regarding PHP 5.3.0.

If you can share your search criteria with me that would be appreciated.

sorry Joff - I assumed that the forum search would return good results.  As it doesn't, I would recommend searching the forum with Google instead:

Do a Google search for
php 5.3 site:forum.cmsmadesimple.org

When I did this search, the second result provides the answer.  The direct link is forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php?topic=35764.0
