Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74278&edit=1 ID: 74278 Updated by: kalle@php.net Reported by: bugs dot php dot net_nospam at adviesenzo dot nl Summary: Last PHP 5.5 missing from windows.php.net archive Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: kalle Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I agree its misleading, but then again PHP 5.5 is no longer supported Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-07-25 23:26:53] bugs dot php dot net_nospam at adviesenzo dot nl That sounds like a cop out and disregards completely that this is misleading people. There is no link to the release page you mention anywhere on the http://windows.php.net/ site, so how would people find this page ? On site, there are three typical links people will use to find a version: * "Downloads" in the main menu at the top - which does not list PHP 5.5 anymore (rightfully so). * "Q&A releases" in the main menu at the top - where it doesn't belong * And - if people search hard enough -, the "release archive" as linked to from the last block in the left side bar None of these three let you find PHP 5.5.38. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-07-25 19:24:41] kalle@php.net [21:21:59] <weltling> ah, nope, it's intentionally, because there are still some traffic on that versions, still makes sense to not to move into the archive ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-25 11:48:20] cmb@php.net Indeed, PHP 5.5.38 is still available on <http://windows.php.net/downloads/releases/>, but that is hard to find. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-20 22:08:50] bugs dot php dot net_nospam at adviesenzo dot nl Description: ------------ The last PHP 5.5 release, PHP 5.5.38 is not listed in the archive http://windows.php.net/downloads/releases/archives/ and can no longer be downloaded from the main download page http://windows.php.net/download/ This *could* mislead people into thinking that PHP 5.5.37 is the last release by which they would be missing out on security patches includes in PHP 5.5.38. Test script: --------------- N/A - visit the http://windows.php.net/downloads/releases/archives/ webpage & see for yourself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74278&edit=1
