Hello together

I need to move to a new server which has PHP 7.4 and MySQL 8.0 installed.
I was able to install LimeSurvey 3.25.10 without any problems and did not get any error on anhib.

Now I want to ask if LimeSurvey 3.25.10 has been officially tested with 7.4 and MySQL 8.0.

Thank you very much for your valuable feedback
Bruno

hi there good day dear Bruno

first of all: many thanks for sharing your insights and all the things you encounter. These are invaluable. We need everything - every bit of info we can get! 
This helps the community. ;)


manual.limesurvey.org/Installation_-_LimeSurvey_CE


The minimum set of requirements:

Minimum 250 MB disk space.
MySQL 5.5.3 or later OR Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or later OR Postgres 9 or later.
Minimum PHP 7.0 or later; however, we recommend PHP 7.4 with the following modules/libraries enabled:
mbstring (Multibyte String Functions) extension library.
PDO database driver for MySQL (pdo_mysql or pdo_mysqli) or Postgres (pdo_pgsql) or MSSQL (pdo_sqlsrv for Windows and pdo_dblib for Linux).


i run on  a server with 

MySQL version 5.5.33
PHP Version 7.4.11

- well i am very interested in the results you get 

plz keep us informed on everything you encounter with your tests on that system...

again: : many thanks for sharing your insights 

regards WP-fan 2099 ;)

Officialy : it must work

Tested : not really . PHP7.4 yes, Mysql8 no.

If there are issue : update to last 3.X, test again and report issue.

Not aware of any blocking issues (there were some updates pushed in the past for mysql 8.0) - it should be fine for production.
