Requirements

Propel requires a recent version of PHP and several related packages (see also Technology).

  • PHP5 - Propel 1.3 runs with PHP5 >= 5.2. Prior versions have a requirement of at least PHP >= 5.0. You should use the latest stable PHP release if you are using a version from SVN.
  • Supported RDBMS - Propel currently supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MS SQL Server, and Oracle via  PDO.
  • PEAR::Log - Phing uses the PEAR  Log package for logging at runtime. This should be installed with most PHP distributions. If it's not installed you can still install it using the PEAR installer.
  • Phing - Propel uses Phing to build the PHP classes and SQL definition files. Phing is not required for the runtime Propel framework. (i.e. you only need Phing installed on the system where you are building the classes, and not on the production system). Phing also can be easily installed over the network using the PEAR installation system. See  http://phing.info for download / installation instructions.
