Linux system check

[Static]

When attempting to install Commentics on a Linux machine (Ubuntu), It is impossible to pass the Suhosin check. This is because the php5 package comes with the Suhosin patch. Disabling it is impossible. The only other option is compiling php yourself without the patch.

From the package:

Quote:Suhosin comes in two independent parts, that
can be used separately or in combination. The first part is a small patch
against the PHP core, that implements a few low-level protections against
bufferoverflows or format string vulnerabilities and the second part is a
powerful PHP extension that implements all the other protections.

I doubt that the patch will have any adverse affects on the script, but just to make sure, will it? I ignored the system check and went on installing it.

As long as the eval() construct is not disabled then it's okay. Suhosin often disables this. You'll know if it's disabled because the script won't be able to retrieve anything from the settings table for both the front and backend.

OK. It works correctly, and I don't think that it will cause any problems. As long as the "php5-suhosin" package is not installed, everything should work. Just a heads up for Linux users.
