Our test server was on 5.5 and it worked ok but I think it was much more funny with MySQL/MariaDB versions as it wouldn’t work on our standard prod environment which had higher versions of MariaDB than on test.



I guess the question for this is would anyone be interested in co-funding an update of the WebPA codebase to support PHP 7.0 / MariaDB 10.2 ?



We piloted it last year off the test server but since it met the business need, we want to sort this out for a more permanent setup but no idea how big of a job this is likely to be.



Thanks

Alistair

However these aren't getting built into any upgrade process or newer versions of the downloadable source code, so as far as I can see the only way to way to be aware of these changes is through this mail-list.
