 Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? Yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Joomla! version: 1.5.26
PHP version: 5.2.6-1+lenny16
MySQL version: 5.0.51a-24+lenny5-log
Host: all2all.org
Admin Tools Pro version: 2.2.10

Description of my issue:


I'm using Admin Tools on many of my clients websites and it's working awesomely (I'm hosting them btw) ! However I've got a problem on one install: WAF simply doesn't work, everything else is ok (htaccess maker, db stuff, file permissions...etc.), I can't use any feature of WAF, no geo Blocking, no IP blacklisting, no Shield, no logs..The parameters are exactly the same as for the other websites (Admin Tools is functioning perfectly with them), the only thing that changed is that I made an upgrade from  Joomla 1.5.20 to 1.5.26 using Admin Tools and upgraded also 3rd party compos, plugins and modules.

I uninstalled (checked if the files were correctly removed also) and reinstalled Admin Tools, nothing changed.

Admin Tools plugin is the first one in the Sytsem plugins list order.

Any clue ? Maybe a conflict with Joomfish Router ?

Admin Tools requires PHP 5.2.7 or later. You have 5.2.6. On these old versions of PHP the Admin Tools system plugin refuses to load itself and no protection is applied. PHP 5.2 became end of life on January 2011. Moreover, PHP 5.2.6 was released over 5 years ago. Unfortunately, we can no longer support these ancient, end-of-life versions of PHP and we will completely drop PHP 5.2 support sometime in 2013.

Hi Nicholas,

Thank you very much for the quick answer and the info, I'll migrate the PHP version.

And again Admin Tools is awesome, it's incredibly efficient.
