EspañolChamilo 2.1 Aldrin and PHP 5.3.7/8!
Dear community,
The last few days we received several bug reports from people who where unable to install Chamilo 2.1 Aldrin on their servers.
After some serious debugging (thanks Sven and PJ) we found the origin of the installation problems.
Chamilo 2.1 Aldrin can't be installed due to a bug in PHP 5.3.7/5.3.8 which broke backwards compatibility in the "is_a" function. A function that is widely used by several external plugins inside Chamilo 2.1.
Because of this broken compatibility the autoloader was triggered with wrong data. (See bugreport https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55475) The bug is already fixed in PHP 5.3.9 (See http://php.net/ChangeLog-5.php)
If you want to use Chamilo 2.1 we recommend to use a PHP version lower then PHP 5.3.7 or higher then 5.3.8.
Best regards
Chamilo 2 Core Team
