php53 problems

Hello

Looked around web for possibilities to get PHP 5.3 running on SLES and found some posts mentining packages php53.
Installed php53, apache2-mod_php53, php53-mysql etc. from YAST on my webserver (default apache2 and mysql) running on SLES 11 SP2 for VMware.
At first everything worked fine and I moved two servers into production, but it seems that now we have found some problems.

Such code:

[CODE]<?php
print_r($_POST);
?>

[/CODE]

Should return

Array ( [field] => Array ( [1] => [2] => [3] => [4] => [5] => ) [submit] => Submit Query )

Instead what we get is

Array ( [field] => Array ( [1] => ) [submit] => Submit Query )

Tested the code with default php packages (5.2.14) and everything works fine.
I don’t have much experience and maybe i don’t know some security setting for php53?

Also I tested php 5.3.10 from OpenSuse repo (http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/php/SLE_11/) and the code works fine.

I am having problems too. I am trying to install XOOPS cms. If I use 5.2.14, everything works. 5.3.8 is broken. I installed 5.3.21 from the opensuse repository for SLES 11 and still have the same problems as 5.3.8. What gives?

It’s a long time ago this post submited. Do someone have solution for that problem ? Problem still exist.
I spend a lot of time to find problem, but solution is not known.

since it’s a long time… which SLES, which php RPMs, which problem are you facing exactly (is suppose “I am trying to install XOOPS cms”, but cannot tell for sure).
