How to install PHP 5.3

    • Hello,

      I've tried to install two plug-ins on Joomla 2.5 and it is said : "This extension is not compatible with PHP 5.2.17. You need PHP 5.3 or higher to be able to install and use this extension ?"

      How can I install PHP 5.3 or higher on Joomla 2.5 ?

      Thank you for your answer.

    • this depends on the type of hosting you have. If it is shared hosting then the host support may have to do it for you. However some hosts make it possible to upgrade php to 5.3 in the cPanel. Others (such as hostgator) make it possible to switch to php 5.3 by adding to the .htacess file this:
      # Use PHP 5.3
      AddType application/x-httpd-php53 .php

      Check with your hosting support :cheesy:
