Validation variables missing

[eluser]scott9s[/eluser]
I Had the same issue. CodeIgniter worked great on my PHP5 dev box, but when I go to deploy, I get all sorts of errors. I come to find out my production box is PHP4.

After a few hours or wringing CodeIgniter's neck, I found this post.

This worked for me:

====
*do not* load Validation class in either the constructor or autoload.php
====

In fact, I was not able to load the database class either in autoload either for PHP4, but I was not too worried about that.

I had to adjust a few items in code regarding string manipulation, but that was my code specific. Thanks for your post.
