Update 9:30 PM Pacific time: the problem described below is resolved, as Amazon is no longer sending data through the problematic route to our servers.

PHP 5.6.40, 7.1.26, 7.2.14 and 7.3.1

Posted January 16th, 2019 in Tech Corner. Tags: , , .

The PHP developers recently released versions 5.6.40, 7.1.26, 7.2.14 and 7.3.1 that fix several bugs. We’ve upgraded the PHP 5.6, 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3 series on our servers as a result.

In addition, ionCube Loader is now available for the PHP 7.3 series, so we’ve made that an option you can enable in our “My Account” control panel.

These changes should not be noticeable, but as always, don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any trouble.
