  1.1.2 Requirements  

 


PHP 3.0.8 or higher+ (100% PHP4-ready !)
MySQL

phpAdsNew should theoretically run on PHP 3.0.8, but this is not tested. The test suite currently included 3.0.12, 3.0.18 and more recent 4.0 versions. It is recommended to use PHP 4.0.x, the PHP 3 support may be dropped in future versions of phpAdsNew.

If you want to run phpAdsNew on a PostgreSQL server you should take a look at phpPgAds, which is a port of phpAdsNew to PostgreSQL, made by Matteo Beccati. phpPgAds requires PHP4.
The phpPgAds project can be found at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/phppgads/
