What PHP versions are allowed (PS I have read the docs on these)

Hello Modx community!

I am a complete Modx nube so please forgive me for getting back to basics. About to install and I noticed that on the ’requirements’ page (http://rtfm.modx.com/display/revolution20/Server+Requirements) it states that

PHP Compatibility ---- 5.1.1 and above (excluding 5.1.6 and 5.2.0)

My shared hosting is running PHP v 5.2.9

Now my actual question is 5.2.9 a completely different version of PHP to 5.2.0(not allowed) or are they both essentially the same PHP version with some minor updates. So as I have 5.2.9 can in install Modx or not????


Pls help!!

I think that should be OK. Any server varies, of course. But for instance, I have 5.2.14, and it’s smooth as glass.

The two version you mention have bugs that break MODx. The later minor versions fixed the bugs.
