PHP 4 and PHP 5 handle objects as function parameters differently. Mediawiki now considers PHP 5.0 or later as a prerequisite (5.1 or later recommended). The warning you quote is a plausible consequence of using PHP 4 under certain circumstances, so that is the first thing I would check. -Robert Rohde _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
