Hello,

I wanted to update my limesurvey CE version 3.2 (which worked finde) to the newest 4.1.0 version:

my Sever has: PHP 5.5.14
SLES 12 SP3
Apache Webserver
MySQL Version 5.7

now I followed the Installation guide under the section "The thorough way (for big version jumps)":
www.limesurvey.org/manual/Upgrading_from...r_version_changes.29
Regarding Permissions I used chmod -R 777 limesurvey so every file has all permissions:

Now at the point when I open: https://<yourdomain>/<yourlimesurveydir>/admin
the following error is displayed:
" Fatal error: Default value for parameters with a class type hint can only be NULL in /srv/www/htdocs/limesurvey/application/models/LSActiveRecord.php on line 437"

any tips how to fix this? Thanks!

I read in the installation requirements of version 4.1.0.

This release does have the following requirements:

*MySQL 5.5.3 or later OR Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or later OR Postgres 8.1 or later
*PHP 7.0.0 or later with the following modules/libraries enabled:
...

while it is for version 3.x.
*PHP 5.5.9 or later with the following modules/libraries enabled:

Did you consider that?
