How to run older versions of php and mysql in cPanel?
Hi guys,
I want to install and test an old version of YaBBSE (php forum script) and I was wondering if there was a way to use older versions of mysql and pp in my shared hosting cpanel account to get this script working again?
Here are the specs needed for the old script to ru:
Recommended Versions of PHP & MySQL to run YaBBSE
----------------------------
PHP 4.0.4 - Unix Platforms
PHP 4.1.x - Win32 Platforms
mySQL 3.22.x - Unix Platforms
mySQL 3.23.x - Win32 Platforms

Shared hosting usually doesn't support changing the PHP version, much less downgrading to a less secure version. You can install PHP, mySQL and YaBBSE on your own computer though.
