Will any modifications need to be made to existing PHP applications after the applications are migrated from “WebDev” to pubweb?
Answer 9. Probably. Publicweb uses PHP 5 while “WebDev” relied on PHP 4. PHP 5 has many new features and functions, some of which replace those in PHP 4. Some PHP 4 functions are depreciated while a few are no longer supported in PHP 5. See question and answer number 6 regarding migrating your application in stages. Once your site’s developer has resolved all errors and warnings on pubweb and tested end-user functionality, it will be safe to request that visitors to your old “WebDev” site be redirected to the new Publicweb site and to request a hostname for that site. Return to https://apps.ndsu.edu/publicweb/ and request an adjustment to your enhanced site configuration by filling in the previously blank fields for redirect and hostname.
