Hi Guys,

Recently my host, Hetzner, upgraded their PHP to 5.3.3, which caused a bit of trouble to my Virtuemart setup.

There is a page that lists an entire category of my shop(Virtuemart) that stopped working after the upgrade. Not even the template will load. If I roll back to the previous PHP version it is correct though.

The rest of Virtuemart and the items it lists are correct, just this one page that isn't


It's Joomla Joomla! 1.5.25 and Virtuemart 1.1.4

Virtuemart is a bit outdated, could that be the problem? I haven't updated it yet as the Flypage template is heavily customised and the update will overwrite it.

Any help would be great,
Thanks
 
Your Joomla version should be fine, upgrade your Virtuemart to 1.1.9. This solved the issue for me. I had a similar problem recently with Gridhost and upgrading Virtuemart fixed it.

Thanks for the reply!

If I do upgrade my Virtuemart can I just replace the newer flypage with my original one?
