PHP 5.4December 18, 2012 @ 7:51pm
1and1.com is upgrading to php 5.4 in April. This may affect many flexcms users. Question: What, if anything, do we need to do to flexcms to prepare it. When I changed my php setting from 4 to 5.4 at 1and1 it appears not to work.

Hello,

FlexCMS 3.0 and later should be compatible with PHP 5. That said, through the minor (5.1, 5.2, etc) PHP releases there have been some changes in error handling and function depreciation that may produce undesired error messages and the like. And many of the larger hosting companies also seem to take pleasure in changing the way standard software (ie PHP) operates for whatever reason.

So lets approach it this way; What version of FlexCMS are you using? Can you be a little more specific about "it appears not to work" (error messages, etc)?

FlexCMS v3.2.1

Installation Date:
February 14, 2012
License Level:
Professional

I am currently using 4. I am required to upgrade to 5.4 by 1 April. When I change to 5.4 in my host control panel I get a full page of errors. I can wait until no one is on the site and change it to 5.4. I'll copy/paste the errors here.

Thank you for you quick response!

Depending on how they have it set up you may also be able to choose PHP versions by directory. If so, you could copy your files into another directory (actually all you likely need is index.php and settings.php) and play with it there until you're ready to make the changes live on the main site. Note that you'd be using the same database so don't make changes to any content, just the files.

I suspect it will be an easy fix, though, so you may be just fine working with the live files if you can find a bit of downtime.

Post a new message (don't modify your existing one above) with the errors so I'll get notified when you're back.

Sorry, I know this is crazy. Here is what I get and the page loads way below it:


Strict Standards: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/New_York' for 'EST/-5.0/no DST' instead in /homepages/19/d237457273/htdocs/online/index.php on line 181

Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in /homepages/19/d237457273/htdocs/online/index.php on line 223



[Removed some of the repeated errors so this post isn't so long --DC]

Ya those were the ones I was expecting, they should be easy fixes. Grab your index.php file and make a copy of it in case you need to go back to what you had before. Then make the following changes:

Line 14 should be this:
Code

error_reporting (E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);
, change it to this:
Code

error_reporting (E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED);


Line 173 should be blank, add a few more blank lines in there and then add this somewhere in the blank space you created:
Code

// Suppress DateTime warnings
date_default_timezone_set(@date_default_timezone_get());


Let me know where that gets you.

That apparently did the trick. If any errors pop up I'll let you know but looks good so far. Thanks David, you guys are the best.

Happy New year!

New error.

I get tons of these errors when I attempt to edit pages from the control panel. Just including one instance of each.

Warning: Illegal string offset 'mday' in /homepages/19/d237457273/htdocs/online/inc-core-admin-pages-edit.php on line 154

The page still operates and functions.

Thanks again!

Sorry for the delay getting back to you. I've been trying to track this down but so far I haven't had much luck. There don't appear to have been any changes to that getdate function in recent PHP releases. You mentioned there were more error messages on that page, could you either provide them here if it's not ridiculously long or email them in a txt file to and I'll try to work it out for you. It's starting to sound like your host has done some weird stuff with their PHP implementation, but sadly that seems to be the new norm with big hosting companies these days.
