    I’m using PHP 5.5 without any issues on Trunk right now. But…

    The directive register_gobals was removed in 5.4!

    Are you sure it’s not a plugin/theme?

    There is only one call to register_globals in wp_unregister_globals(), see http://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_unregister_globals/.

    Your php.ini for PHP 5.5 is configured wrongly. Since 5.4 it’s not allowed to use the register_globals directive in a php.ini anymore.

    I will have to make sure I searched the correct version. And I will search the plugins and theme.

    This is the typical problem. I upgraded to what Dot5 called WP Essential. Just as soon as I did that the site went down. I was also using PHP 5.5 with no problems. They say

    In the previous PHP version, it looks as the register_globals was disabled and you had received the error.

    Still trying to work with them to find out exactly what they did.

    Thanks Dominik. I replaced the php.ini with a default version and switched back to PHP 5.5. All is well.
