-- PHP 5.5+ For newer versions, some functions that are used may be
- disabled by default, such as the pcntl_* family. See the
- section on 'Queues and daemons' for more information.
-- MariaDB 5+ GNU Social uses, by default, a MariaDB server for data
- storage. Versions 5.x and 10.x have both reportedly
- worked well. It is also possible to run MySQL 5.5+.
-- Web server Apache, lighttpd and nginx will all work. CGI mode is
- recommended and also some variant of 'suexec' (or a
- proper setup php-fpm pool)
- NOTE: mod_rewrite or its equivalent is extremely useful.
+- PHP 5.6+ PHP7.x is also supported.
+- MariaDB 5+ MariaDB 10.x is also supported.
+- Web server Apache, lighttpd and nginx will all work, see sample
+ configuration files in the web root. Please use PHP-FPM
