specification tree is not updated after new installation

[njyosna]

I have installed manually testlink 1.8.3 version. But in specification i'm able to create the testsuits, but those are not updated in the tree. of course, there is no + sign with the projectname in specification.

But i can see the test suit created in the Navigator - Test Specification - Test Suite picklist.

Please help me to get rid of this problem. Is it the configuration problem? please advise.

ok thanks.

Also php 5.2.0 or greater version is needed by testlink 1.8 or higher version. if i upgrade php to 5.2.0, still testlink 1.7.5 php files will work with php 5.2.0 or not??

1.9 will require PHP 5.3, but is better do not use this version with 1.7 due to deprecated functions.
I think you can start upgrading ONLY TestLink

I'm doing fresh installation of Testlink1.8 (1.8.5). But when we click on new installation, it gave message saying 5.2.0 or greater version of php is needed.

Are you advising me to install 1.8.5 manually & see whether the problem gets resolved? are you saying php versions will not affect Testlink functionality ( code in .php files).

Also can you please give the link from where i can download testlink 1.8.5 stable version. I couldnt find with the new testlink home page.

I got testlink 1.8.5 s/w and installed.
The problem with tree structure was due to $tlCfg->treemenu_type='JTREE'; line "custom_config.inc.php" file was commented.

& im using 5.1 Php. Dint upgrade to 5.2 ..
