[Tikiwiki-devel] [SOLVED] Re: PHP5 test in tiki-install.php is not working

[Filipus K. <ch...@gm...>]

  It turned out the reason the check is "not working" is because nothing 
is working. tiki-install.php failed to parse with PHP 4, so people would 
get a parse error instead of the message saying requirements aren't met. 
I made the file parse in r30609, for Tiki 6.1, but as the change is not 
completely trivial, I'm not planning to backport to 5.x.
