Hello,


on an old UBUNTU 20.04 server we run an older JOBE SERVER. I want to upgrade PHP on that server at least to PHP 7.4. 

Can you say how to determine the current JOBE SERVER Version and how to find out which PHP Versions are compatible with 

that JOBE SERVER version ?


Thanks a lot.


Best,


Thor

The file README.md in your Jobe install folder has the version and date stamp.

I can't immediately say exactly what versions of Jobe work with what versions of PHP. But I don't think I've used any recent additions to the PHP language in Jobe, so why not just upgrade Jobe to the latest version after upgrading PHP. Try running testsubmit.py. I think it will probably work with your upgraded PHP but if not run git log to find a commit around the time of the version of PHP you've upgraded to (say six months later) and checkout that version. Experiment to find a working version.
