ID: 54308 Updated by: paj...@php.net Reported by: stevenmartin99 at gmail dot com Summary: You named the new version 5.3.6 and not 5.4.0 Status: Bogus Type: Feature/Change Request Package: *General Issues Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.3.6 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: That's the reply from the Apache Organisation as well. They do NOT provide official binaries but as a convenience, using VC6/mingw. But they are by no mean official builds. We stop to support VC6 for security and maintainability reasons. Use a VC9 build of apache and get over it. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-03-18 13:41:11] stevenmartin99 at gmail dot com I did mention this...Its not Offical. Who is ApacheLounge? Who is Steffen Land? You are now making the Security of People Servers rest on one person by telling everyone , to be secure use the latest PHP version but you must use it with an unoffical version of Apache built by one person.. (Doesnt sound so secure to me) Please reopen open my issue as you failed to understand it correctly. This was not my bug issue you replied about. My issue is with the number versioning to let people know of the SERIOUS UPDATE. You changed the numbering by 0.0.1 which people will see as a security update.. When in fact they will be creating an extremly unstable Server if you update PHP to 5.3.6. And if you follow PHP'S recommendation by using ApacheLounges(Steffen Land) VC9 Apache build you are saying this is safe. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-03-18 13:19:44] der...@php.net We support Apache on Windows just fine. Just not with the antiquated Visual Studio 6 builds that apache.org provides. You can use Apache from ApacheLounge just fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-03-18 13:13:26] stevenmartin99 at gmail dot com Sorry but this is not BOGUS.. Where else can this issue be brought up? Please provide a link to somewhere else or change the status back to open ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-03-18 13:03:53] paj...@php.net . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-03-18 12:57:26] stevenmartin99 at gmail dot com Description: ------------ You have released the new version of php as PHP5.3.6 from PHP5.3.5 To a windows user this means a small security update... When in fact you have rendered every single Apache sever useless if they upgrade. How can this kind of update be in the n.n.X class of number versioning when if should be AT LEAST in the n.X.n Range. Telling people in a small note that you no longer support APACHE ON WINDOWS is not acceptable when you only change the version number by 0.0.1 Telling people to use an unoffical build of Apache when previously a PHP X.X.-1 compatiable official Build was ok is not Acceptable. You really need to think about this very carefully, 5.4.0 should have been released. Expected result: ---------------- change the version number to PHP5.4.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54308&edit=1
