Strange Strange Strange ...

After refactoring the application and played a bit with class definition  and code weaving, I got execution traces and error message related to the call of the function preg_match_all.  Preg_match_all was call with a variable non declared as array, I did and things were going back.

So to "solve" this, I had to rework code and declaration of code, to get error messages and then fix the code.

Strange indeed !

after fix, code worked in both environment
