--------------------------------------

Hi Bruce,

First of all, I'd like to point out that PHP 5.2.17 is the last release from the 5.2 branch. Can you please double-check which version you're using.
http://www.php.net/downloads.php

Second, PHPunit 3.6 which we use for testing is compatible with PHP 5.2.7+.
https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit

We test the releases on 5.2.17 and the latest from 5.3.x branch.

I have just now manually tried the first example from the quick start guide on log4php 2.2.1 with the following PHP versions: 5.2.7 (Windows), 5.2.17 (Linux) and 5.3.8 (Windows). It works the same on all three and I am unable to reproduce the error which you reported.

It is possible that it's an issue with PEAR. Can you try to download the source package from our web and try it on that? In case the pear package has somehow become corrupted.

Regards,
Ivan

> Documentation claims that Log4php supports PHP v5.2. The simplest example in quickstart works for v5.3, but fails for v5.2.26:
> Fatal error: Call to a member function close() on a non-object in ~PEAR/log4php/Logger.php on line 302
> Further, your unit testing section at http://wiki.apache.org/logging-log4php/WritingTests uses phpunit, which requires PHP v5.2.27+
> This implies that you are not testing older versions of PHP, unless you've built a legacy test harness.
