server upgrade to php 5.4.33 wipes out module?

My webhost just upgraded the server that hosts my sites and now one of my modules is no longer working.

The cmsms install is older also 1.9.3

I know, i should've been upgrading all along the way, but the module development stopped and and my attitude was if it isn't broken....
It was made with ctlmodule maker.

Any advise on updating code for an older module or the base install to keep it going a little longer?

thanks

First it isn't a good idea not to upgrade your cmsms because of security and vulnerability.

To actually get help we need more info, http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/viewtopi ... =40&t=2661

Not sure if it will help - but there's a website around this module

Chandra - thanks for the link to the ctlmm website. I saw that it was no longer in the modules list and thought that it had been completely expunged.

I had done all of my development before it switched to an updated version, which would have required starting from scratch at a time with no time. Given the headaches to get it working as i wanted, I didn't want to open the can of worms. Guess i'll be opening it now...

cmsms version 1.9.3
CTLModuleMaker 1.8.9.3
php 5.3

new server
php 5.4.33
sql 5.5.37

I will work on upgrading the cms and see if that works. It would be nice if updates could install from within the cms - or from a softalicioius or fantastico installer.
