PmWiki should run fine with OVH, this is one of my hosting providers, so 
I'll make sure it does before September 24.

The current core version should work fine with PHP 5.6. Please read the 
pages ReleaseNotes and Upgrades in case you may need to make some 
changes to your installation:

   http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/ReleaseNotes
   http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/Upgrades

Please report if you discover any problems with the PmWiki core, I'll 
fix them ASAP.

Note that recipes and skins (as opposed to PmWiki core) are in the 
process of being updated for PHP 5.4 - 5.5 - 5.6 and some may not work 
with newer PHP versions. See the pages Troubleshooting and Custom 
Markup:

Supported PHP versions for the PmWiki core are from 4.3 to the latest 
version available for testing by us on the date of the PmWiki release. 
Any problems discovered by us and/or reported by users are addressed as 
soon as practical. Notably, the "core" version 2.2.74 should work fine 
with PHP 5.4, unless we haven't noticed something - please report on how 
we can reproduce any problem you see. However, it is really recommended 
to first upgrade to the latest version.
