Are you having the same issue that I am?

My hosting provider is a shared provider and to get anything above 5.2.0 is not possible without upgrading to a much higher pricing tier. I too remember that it used to able a minimum of 5.1.6 to run the framework and then suddenly found out that had changed. But only one line inn the docs said you had to have 5.2.4.

My hosting service runs Debian 4.0 and since the service is a VPS (Plesk based Virtual Private Server) server it may be a while before Debain 5 is supported depending on how long it takes the (Virtual Private server) to upgrade their support.

My other sites are on a Redhat shared server that is offering a limited version of 5.2.0. I don't own the hardware and since its a shared service I cannot upgrade the PHP version.

Not everyone has $100-$400/month to have a dedicated server at a hosting provider to install the latest and to buy a copy of zend server to serve sites. It would be useful to have something in the documentation that states the minimum requirements to each module so that those of us who don't have the money for the latest and greatest can still work with what they have.

Hi,

Now that the ZF .18 is out I'd like to know if anyone has the php version requirement for the individual classes. I know the general minimum php version for the framework but in the past only a few of the classes actually required 5.2.x.

Since I am still stuck with 5.1.6 (RHEL) for a while this would allow me to know if I can upgrade safely, as long as I do not use any class that uses 5.2.x features.

Thanks.
