Zen Cart 1.3.8 with PHP 5.2.11 - Problem logging into Admin page.

[dsdavis]

Hello,

We have Zen Cart 1.3.8a installed on a Solaris 10 server (Sparc processor) which has Apache httpd 2.2.13, MySQL 5.1.37 and PHP 5.2.9.

We recently tried upgrading to PHP 5.2.11, but when we do so, we lose the ability to login to the Admin page of Zen Cart. The login page comes up, we enter username and password, click Login, but then the Login page just reloads with blank username and password fields.

If we downgrade to PHP 5.2.9, everything works just fine.

In the apache server log, we see the following:


PHP Fatal error: Class 'queryFactory' not found in /path/to/zen/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 54, referer: http: / /oursite/admin/login.php


Does anyone have any thoughts on what could be causing this or what we need to do to fix it?

We are trying to make our server PCI compliant, and in order to do so, need to be running PHP 5.2.11.

Thanks, in advance.


Doug

i've upgrade locally to php 5.2.11 without any problems.

Are you retaining the same php.ini as your 5.2.9 version when you do the upgrade. ?

I'm not sure, wilt. Someone else (to whom I've sent a link to this thread) is doing the upgrades. Should we be retaining the same php.ini file or not?

hi,

My only concern was that if a new php.ini had been installed, that it may have had settings changed that affected Zen Carts ability to run correctly, especially changes to any of the ini session settings.

dsdavis,

Were you able to fix the issue with php v5.2.11? I'm having the exact same problem (while running CentOS 5.2 on a Slicehost vps), and am not sure how to downgrade php, aside from yum removing it and installing from source (ugh, huge pain, really want to avoid).
