I thought PHP 7.0 is not yet supported by phpBB 3.1.7: https://github.com/phpbb/phpbb/pull/4063/

Edit:
I think i got "stated" wrong.

Update went through without a hitch. Thanks Joas!

My update from 3.1.6 on localhost went also OK except a small language issue. I changed language of installer to try my translation of phpBB and everything was fine except page "Updating database to latest stable release" which was in English and not translated.

The Version check wasnt updated yet. It says im running the latest version 3.1.6.

[RMcGirr83]

Anyone know of a reason as to why this

Code: Select all

if ($this->db->get_sql_layer === 'sqlite')

produces this?

Undefined property: phpbb/db/driver/factory::$get_sql_layer

as far as I can tell it is defined.

Because it's if ($this->db->get_sql_layer() === 'sqlite')

[RMcGirr83]

wow, not sure how I missed that one. Lack of coffee I suppose. Thanks!

*Facepalm*. Only now i realised its a RC and not the actual release

[P_I]

Our board has a couple of style modifications, so we use the automatic update package. Just tested 3.1.6 to 3.1.7 RC1 and all looks OK. Thanks.

I, and I suspect my membership, cannot wait for the "mark topics read" link to "View unread posts" feature. For as long as I've used phpBB I've been wondering why it didn't exist. Thanks again.
