Ninja firewall compatible with php 5.4?

    Hello,

    I’ve been using ninja firewall for months. I just upgraded to php 5.4 (from 5.3)

    Ninja firewall seems to have reset. So I go through the process of letting it add lines to the php.ini file again. It says it is successful (I checked the files manually and the lines do appear to have been added.

    When I then press the “Test Ninja firewall Configuration” it just takes me back to the original welcome page – and the loop goes on continuously.

    Is it simply not compatible with php 5.4? or is there another issue likely to be causing this?

    Many thanks.

    Hi,

    It is compatible with PHP 5.4. We are running it with 5.5.6 installed on our dev servers.
    I think the problem comes from the fact that you are still using the old php.ini file. Since 5.3+, .user.ini (its name starts with a . dot) is the default INI file on a per-directory basis.
    You should try to rename your php.ini to .user.ini, and, if you are running Apache, open the .htaccess and modify the line added by NinjaFirewall so that it points to the new INI file.
    Unlike php.ini, .user.ini files are not reloaded immediately by PHP, but every 5 minutes. If this is your own server, restart Apache (or PHP-FPM if you are running nginx) to force PHP to reload it, otherwise you may need to wait a couple of minutes.
