-==== 1. Webserver supporting PHP====+===== Web Server =====
  
-DokuWiki will run on any web serverthat supports [[http://php.net/|PHP]]. Most users use [[http://httpd.apache.org/|Apache]] but many others including [[https://www.iis.net|IIS]], [[https://www.litespeedtech.com/products/litespeed-web-server|litespeed]], [[https://www.lighttpd.net|lighttpd]], [[https://nginx.org/en/|nginx]] and [[https://aprelium.com/abyssws/|Abyss]] are known to work. +DokuWiki will run on any web server that supports [[http://php.net/|PHP]].
-==== 2. PHP version 5.6 or later ====+
  
-**PHP needs to be at least Version 5.6** but newer versions are highly recommended.+Most users use [[http://httpd.apache.org/|Apache]] or [[https://nginx.org/en/|nginx]], but many others including [[https://www.iis.net|IIS]], [[https://www.litespeedtech.com/products/litespeed-web-server|litespeed]], [[https://www.lighttpd.net|lighttpd]], [[https://man.openbsd.org/httpd|OpenBSD httpd]], [[https://caddyserver.com/|Caddy]] and [[https://aprelium.com/abyssws/|Abyss]] are known to work.
  
-For resizing [[:images]] either the [[phpfn>ref.image|PHP GD extension]] or [[http://www.imagemagick.org/|Image Magick]] should be installed.+===== PHP ====

-The pcre library in PHP needs to be compiled with UTF-8 supportYou can test this by executing ''pcretest -C'' and looking for "UTF-8 support" (or "UTF-8 and UTF-16 support") and "Unicode properties support".((If UTF-8 support is missing, snippets in the search results will be missing and when you follow links in the search results the pages will be empty.))+The current stable release requires PHP in version 7.or higher.
  
-**PHP 7.0** installation (on Ubuntu 16.04 or debian 9) need the php-xml package installed(Fixes error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function utf8_decode() )+PHP versions up to and including 7.4 have reached [[https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php|End of Life]]. Thus PHP 8 is recommended.
