Description Aldo Necci 2017-04-03 09:04:07 UTC
moodle-2.7.19-1.el6 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 6 stable repository, but moodle 2.7.19 requires PHP 5.4.4 and Mysql 5.5.31 as shown here:
 https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Moodle_2.7_release_notes#Server_requirements

CentOS 6 (or EL 6 in general) has php-5.3.3 and mysql-5.1.73 and it's impossible to use moodle-2.7.19-1.el6 from EPEL 6.

Comment 1 Anssi Johansson 2017-04-03 09:09:39 UTC
How do the older PHP and MySQL versions prevent you from using Moodle? Do you get an error message?

Comment 2 Aldo Necci 2017-04-03 13:09:24 UTC
At the end of normal istallation it's shows a blank page on browser instead to show the first steps of configuration.

The cron job of moodle (admin/cli/cron.php) returns this message:
Moodle 2.7 or later requires at least PHP 5.4.4 (currently using version 5.3.3)

Comment 3 Gwyn Ciesla 2017-04-03 13:15:52 UTC
The problem is that the 2.6.x branch is no longer supported, even for security updates.  The last release there is 21 months old.  I'll see if the patches sited in 1319679 can be backported.

Comment 4 Gwyn Ciesla 2017-04-03 14:53:47 UTC
Ick.  Ok.

Please see if this works.  It's 2.6.11 with as much backported as I could find that would apply.

Comment 5 Aldo Necci 2017-04-16 16:08:01 UTC
The latest moodle for EPEL 6 is moodle-2.6.11-3.el6 available on these links:

- https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=751726
Please back that version on line again, because it' working well.
