I have ran an older web portal called PHPNuke for years and I spent lots of money customizing it to serve a specific trade [ www.parts-link.com ] and after an Ubuntu 16 upgrade, I am told PDO wont support older PHPNuke web portal unless I hire more developers to recode all the files, which they immediately say is going to cost a lot. In this terrible global economy, I cant justify such a thing. I'm disappointed you guys who are thinking this stuff up dont consider these circumstances and just leave people in the dust. I had the site down for a couple months pondering what to do because I spent alot of time trying to get it going with php7 , but and I only just now got a developer to get it back up rolled back to php5.6. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73421&edit=1
