Title: PHP, GD, Horde Update ?
Post by: ChocoKiller on June 18, 2003, 12:59:54 PM

Hi All,

Maybe it could be very interesting to update in SME 6b1 the PHP server to 4.3+, GD to 2+, Horde and imp to their lastest versions ... or maybe not so lastest for security. As I speak for me, I must have the GD2 Library and it's very difficult to install it on the server (because i'm pretty new to Linux and it seems to have to update PHP, and after that, horde doesn't working anymore then update ... etc etc etc ...). But I'm sure they are other components which could be updated, like MySQL for exemple ...

Regards,

In the Contril area you coulw find things you're looking for, Dan Brown has created PHP 4.3.1, IMP 3.2.1, Horde 2.2.1 and so on...

Hello Ergin,

Thanks, at least, for your response. But in fact, when I post this thread, I just have in mind all of the good work of Dan Brown. I read and found lots of things like RPMs, HOWTO's, ... but the only thing is even with this, it isn't fully working. Let me explain a little : I upgraded manually the PHP server with the RPMs of Dan. All was good, I have GD2, etc ... But (Like Dans said in one of the threads), IMP is broken. I confirm this by having this lines :

Warning: write(Crypt/HCEMD5.php) [function.write]: failed to create stream: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type in /home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Secret.php on line 41

Warning: write() [function.write]: Failed opening 'Crypt/HCEMD5.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in /home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Secret.php on line 41

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: crypt_hcemd5 in /home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Secret.php on line 43


The problem is clearly this library Crypt. I think it's only because it's a compilation parameter to add. I then just planning to compile by myself PHP, but it's a hard work for anyone who doesn't have a great experience with Linux in general.

For all of this, I think it could be great to update all packages in E-Smith to newer versions, and at least, PHP, GD, PEAR, SMB, MySQL.

Just an idea, not an order ...

Regards,
