SuiteCRM 7.2 Requirements / Compatibility matrix

I believe documentation needs to be updated to reflect the current compatibility requirements for the upgrade from 7.1 to 7.2

https://suitecrm.com/wiki/index.php/Upgrade
Compatibility matrix for upgrade
PHP version 5.2.1-5.2.6, 5.2.8-5.2.15, 5.2.17, 5.3.0 - 5.3.6 Databases MySQL - 5.0x, 5.1 MSSQL - 2005, 2008 Operating systems Windows: Sugar runs on any OS that runs PHP Linux: Sugar runs on any OS that runs PHP Mac: Sugar runs on any OS that runs PHP

PHP Version 5.2 did not work and I received an install error Install Error - unexpected T_FUNCTION.
Once I updated to 5.3 fit came up without a problem.

Possibly add a php version check to confirm users server is able to support 7.2 during the install / upgrade.

This is a known issue.

We will investigate the compatibility.

We will be updating the wiki and documentation over the coming weeks, as many changes have been implemented since the documentation was constructed, and a lot has come from SugarCRM CE.

Thanks,

Will.

Out of curiosity, isn’t the compatibility list is a bit dated?

I’ve been running SuiteCRM 7.1.4 with PHP 5.4.35 (+ Zend 2.4 & XCache 2.0) on MySQL 5.5.41 without incident.

Will this be a problem when upgrading to 7.2?

As I have already stated, we will investigate and amend.

You should not experience any issues on PHP 5.3+.

As always, we advise you backup your data and run test upgrades.
