Could it be that the PHP version is no longer current.

There were some big format changes between the older versions such as 5 and the newer version 7
Those changes killed a lot of my website stuff when the server version were changed, including my rose compendium, which is fixed now (but kind of out of date)

Oh, after clicking the download button it says:
"The file link that you requested is not valid. Please contact link publisher or try to make a search."

So basically it's gone, unless someone reuploads it. Sorry I can't help you with that because i dont have any of the Dynasty CMS's :(

Me neither. I never used it. If i wanted a rose CMS I just made my own. I've done several over the years.

I wouldn't use those cms websites too. Most of them are using old functions and stuff.
Maybe when it is cold here and i have some free time, I will make a new one compatible with php 7 and mostly bootstrap (or any other responsive design)

one of the biggest issues is that over the years, the databases have changed somewhat so that the older CMS sites don't even load in the correct data any more.
You pretty much need a different format on your backend database management for each server version. There is no "one size fits all" solution unless somebody builds out something that uses multiple cnfigurations.

we can kind of solve that with views in the database. All the admin has to do is map the correct tables and fields...

Exactly. that's what i meant by multiple configurations. ;)
It's easily solvable in any newly made system but potentially a little more tricky when working with an older CMS. Depends how it's coded. If it's modular in any way then it's easy otherwise not so much

If any of you is interested in using these files in 2018 make sure you use a compatible version of php.
These files were designed for version 5.5 and older, so if you're using any of the recent stuff it will not work ( if you installed wampp or xampp recently it will not work ).

If you're not sure what version of php you are using you can check it here :
http://127.0.0.1/phpmyadmin/ ( or whatever ip your server might use )
http://127.0.0.1/dashboard/phpinfo.php
Or simply create a php file with this on it
  1. <?php
  2. echo 'Current PHP version: '. Phpversion();
  3. ?>

and then browse it.

Most of the compatibility issues come from the fact that php dropped the MYSQL support after 5.5.
It has now been replaced by MySQLi or PDO.

Example : old code looked like that :
  1. mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpasswd) or die('Could not establish database connection.');

When in php 7 it should be like that :
  1. <?php
  2. $connection = mysqli_connect('dbhost', 'dbuser','dbpass');
  3. if (!$connection){
  4.     die("Database Connection Failed" . mysqli_error($connection));
  5. }
  6.  

Keep in mind that this is not limited to mysql_connect, other function such as select ect...have a new equivalent today.

Making theses files compatible with php 7 shouldn't be too hard. Your work would mostly be traducing the old MySQL function to the new MySQLi one.
