ProjeQtOr V12.3 PHP 8.0 to PHP 8.3
ProjeQtOr V12.4 and above PHP 8.0 to PHP 8.4

ProjeQtOr requires some PHP extensions to function correctly.

  • gd ⇒ for graphical reports
  • imap ⇒ to import tickets through emails
  • mbstring for UTF-8 compatibility
  • mysql  for access to the database
  • openssl for email sending if using authentified SMTP server
  • pdo_mysql ⇒ for access to the database
  • pdo_pqsql  for access to the database
  • pgsql ⇒ for access to the database
  • php-xml ⇒ for XML parsing
  • zip ⇒ for plug-ins management and for exports to Excel format
  • curl ⇒ for some plugins

Overall, your server sizing will depend on your use of ProjeQtOr, specifically:

  • how many users are connected simultaneously,
  • what operations they perform (calculating plannings for many projects is more resource-intensive than viewing tickets),
  • how many projects, activities, tickets, etc.

To give you an idea, here are recommendations for the minimum configuration for reasonable use by an average team (ten to twenty users).

Processors
– Minimum 2 CPUs – especially if MySQL and Apache/PHP are on the same server.
– Choose the best possible CPU frequency.

Disk Space
– Minimum 100 MB for the application
– 100 MB to 1 GB for the database and attached files
– We recommend using SSD drives

Memory
– Minimum 4 GB of RAM

Configuration for MySql

To be modified in the my.ini or my.cnf file:

  • innodb-default-row-format=dynamic
  • Collation at database creation
    For ProjeQtOr < V10.0: utf8_general_ci
    For ProjeQtOr >= V10.0: utf8mb4_general_ci

Configuration for PHP

To be modified in php.ini (the one for the Apache module):

  • max_input_vars = 4000;
    This must be greater than 2000 for the Timesheet screen to function correctly.
  • max_execution_time = 30;
    Recommended minimum.
  • memory_limit = 512M;
    Recommended minimum for PDF generation.
  • file_uploads = On;
    To allow adding files and managing documents.
  • error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT
