FYI - Latest version of PHP (4.3.x) breaks phpNuke. Here's a fix

[ecoutez]

After updating the servers via easyapache to grab the latest PHP, it turned out that all phpNuke sites come up with an error message just before each news block.

Fortuantely the problem is known and there is a fix. Unfortunately you may have to edit or replace a couple files in each installation of phpNuke.

See http://pownuke.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=3

Confirmed that this does fix the problem on a CPanel box.

When I upgraded the server using latest builapache and option 4, everything went fine but a few of my clients running phpnuke got the following error message:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare unixdate() in /DISK2/WWW/septak.cz/www/pnadodb/adodb.inc.php on line 1477


The solution is simple: just put the whole function UnixDate() into comment block (or delete it) and PostNuke will happily run on PHP 4.3.0.
