Inventory Snow Leopard Compatibility Issues
FileWave Inventory
The current release of FileWave Inventory will not work on a default install of OS X Snow Leopard. This reason for this is that the Inventory component uses the default OS X PHP library. Snow Leopard ships with PHP version 5.3. IonCube in turn has not released a loader for this paticular PHP version.
A workaround would be to downgrade the PHP library to 5.2.6 but it's recomended to simply wait until a new release of Inventory is published which will use a MAMP style server install.
Leopard PHP causes Apache to crash resulting in a number of Inventory UI glitches
During a Leopard 10.5.6 OSX update, a newer version of PHP was installed to the system. Because Inventory 9 uses the OSX version of PHP, a number of things break due to this bug. The fix is to downgrade the PHP library on the server back to what it origionaly was until Apple updates the PHP library to fix the bug.
This issue only affects Leopard users. Tiger users are not effected.
