Hi, For reference, a couple of people have raised the "PHP 7 performance" issue. The thing is, the performance bottleneck is, very significantly, in the Perl side of things, and moving the management interface to PHP7 won't gain anything in that regard. Perl is pretty much a permanent fixture because Spamassassin is Perl. I appreciate it has to happen at some point. This will be a major code overhaul however and I don't have the resources to invest at this point in time. I will go on the record and say I won't be dealing with people insisting on absurd notions like "rewrite it in JavaScript, you have one week plz". I've had several of these, and you're wasting your time. ________________________________________ From: Maia-users <[email protected]> on behalf of Ian R.

I would rather the PHP code not turn into another WordPress, phpMyAdmin, phpBB, or SquirrelMail. Until this code gets massaged to work under PHP 7.0, I had to get a PPA which has PHP 5.5 and 5.6 set up and installed so I could install PHP5.6 and get it working. The good news is that the stuff that's mainly installed by Pear works just fine straight from the repository. It's the stuff that directly extends the interpreter and the interpreter itself that needs to come from a different repository. Information about how to set up older PHP installations under Xenial Xerus can be had here: https://by-example.org/ubuntu-16-04-xenial-downgrade-php-7-to-php-5-6/ --Ian. -- Ian R.
