[TYPO3-english] Update from 4.5.32 to 4.5.33 : https_enforcer error

[Robert Wildling]

Hi Xavier,

thanks for your response. I did understand very well not to restart the 
whole monster :-).

I did those update/downgrade tests within a university infrastructure, 
where there is one php that serves many virtual hosts (it's a 
Redheat/CentOS distribution). It is not just that simple to initiate a 
php daemon restart, simply because there might quite likely be a course 
on Moodle going on, which then would most certainly experience 
interruptions (wouldn't be the first time).

And still, when it comes to shared hostings, the solution presented here 
needs shell access, which many people just don't have.

So eventually I still wonder, why there where some 30 upgrades and 
nothing alike happened (at least I didn't read anything - please correct 
me, when I am wrong!), and now those problems arise. As for the 
university, the php infrastructure didn't see a change in a php major 
version in over 4 years (I probably shouldn't say that, but, well, here 
it is...), so I wouldn't blame php...

...just thinking out loud...


Have a nice day!
Robert
