Anyone else have problems with PHP 5.3.x?

On CentOS 5.x upgraded php and everyhting except Dolphin worked. If I went to my domain, you would see "code". When I reverted back to my old php.ini and restarted httpd, everything was fine again. So I guess its just one of the settings in the new php.ini but I double checked and all the "recommended" settings were correct.

Anyone have any ideas on which setting to look for?

I'm having no problems with PHP 5.3 and Dolphin. Any chance you can better describe your problem? It's good to hear you resolved it, though.

When I use the "new" php.ini my dolphin home page will look like

register_globals is On (warning, you should have this param in Off state, or your site will unsafe)'; $aErrors[] = (ini_get('safe_mode') == 0) ? '' : 'safe_mode is On, disable it'; //$aErrors[] = (ini_get('allow_url_fopen') == 0) ? 'Off (warning, better keep this parameter in On to able register Dolphin' : ''; $aErrors[] = (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.2.0', '<')) ? 'PHP version too old, please update to PHP 5.2.0 at least' : ''; $aErrors[] = (! extension_loaded( 'mbstring')) ? 'mbstring extension not installed. Warning! Dolphin cannot work without mbstring extension.' : ''; if (version_compare(phpversion(), "5.2", ">") == 1) { $aErrors[] = (ini_get('allow_url_include') == 0) ? '' : 'allow_url_include is On (warning, you should have this param in Off state, or your site will unsafe)'; }; $aErrors = array_diff($aErrors, array('')); //delete empty if (count($aErrors)) { $sErrors = implode("
", $aErrors); echo << Please go to the
Dolphin Troubleshooter
and solve the problem. EOF; exit; } } //check correct hostname $aUrl = parse_url( $site['url'] ); if( isset($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']) and 0 != strcasecmp($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], $aUrl['host']) and 0 != strcasecmp($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], $aUrl['host'] . ':80') ) { header( "Location:http://{$aUrl['host']}{$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']}" ); exit; } // check if install folder exists if ( !defined ('BX_SKIP_INSTALL_CHECK') && file_exists( $dir['root'] . 'install' ) ) { $ret = <<

EOJ; echo $ret; exit(); } // set error reporting level if (version_compare(phpversion(), "5.3.0", ">=") == 1) error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED); else error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE); set_magic_quotes_runtime(0); ini_set('magic_quotes_sybase', 0); // set default encoding for multibyte functions mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8'); mb_regex_encoding('UTF-8'); require_once(BX_DIRECTORY_PATH_INC . "security.inc.php"); require_once(BX_DIRECTORY_PATH_ROOT . "flash/modules/global/inc/header.inc.php"); require_once(BX_DIRECTORY_PATH_ROOT . "flash/modules/global/inc/content.inc.php"); require_once(BX_DIRECTORY_PATH_CLASSES . "BxDolService.php"); require_once(BX_DIRECTORY_PATH_CLASSES . 'BxDolAlerts.php'); $oZ = new BxDolAlerts('system', 'begin', 0); $oZ->alert(); ?>

That appears to be the PHP option short_open_tags.

It appears to be off. It needs to be on for dolphin.

Thanks Deano that was the problem. It's all good now.
