Downgrade php version

Hello,

I need to work on an existing site running on PHP 4.4.9

I don't know how to downgrade PHP 5.2.10 installed with easyphp to version 4.4.9.
I tried the "hard way", ie donwloading older version and renaming folder but apache doesn't like it and is looking for php5apache2_2.dll

Since I don't know anything about php installation, I'm lost... I have found a lot of information on how to upgrade easyphp to a newer version, but nothing for the other way...

Any information is welcomed !
Thanks

"but apache doesn't like it and is looking for php5apache2_2.dll"

Into conf_files\httpd.conf, you can change that by "php4apache2.dll" but i'm not sure that it will be OK...

Also... I'm curious : why to use a very old PHP version, not supported anymore ?

Hello Amour,

Many thanks for your reply !
I've tried it without success. I've also tried this: [www.devside.net]

To answer your question about the very old version of PHP, the reason why I'm trying to do that is because I want to make changes on an existing site (style sheet & graphic design only). I have installed easyphp on my PC, imported the database and so on, but the code is not interpreted... So I'm trying to match the old version of php of that site on my pc to see if it works.

Maybe they use old short tags to open php code ?

You can replace all <? with <?php ;)

Also, if you really need a special version of EasyPHP or equivalent, I can try to make it... just ask me.
