7.4, It should be supported...

No, the intent is to support 7.4. That doesn't mean the entire system has been tested with that version of PHP so knowing the version is important. Please report to the tracker so it can be fixed. Thanks.

Code: Select all

[phpBB Debug] "Trying to access array offset on value of type null" in file /var/www/vhosts/supportforum.be/httpdocs/phpbb/install/module_base.php on line 134

That's already fixed in https://tracker.phpbb.com/browse/PHPBB3-16261
It doesn't harm the installation though.

Code: Select all

[phpBB Debug] "password_hash(): A thread value other than 1 is not supported by this implementation" in file /var/www/vhosts/supportforum.be/httpdocs/phpbb/passwords/driver/base_native.php on line 57

That's something to do with your server / PHP implementation I guess. We replied already in the tracker.

Ok, you could now try and switch to PHP 7.4 so to test the whole stuff.

Happy holidays

Hey all,

On the danger that I missed a simple step, I post this since my self-checks did not really lead to anything. My host decided last week to update to PHP7.3.7 so the board did not work anymore. In that way I installed the 3.3.0-b2 in order to be able to continue the board.

With the RC1 released I first tried the update package from b2 to RC1 which ended in an '500 | Internal Error'. After that I uploaded all files except config, /images, /files and /store and again the same error. After that I uploaded the complete package and still the same error.

So there seems to be a fundamental mismatch between my server and RC1. Link to the folder with the complete package: www.bmwe21.net/forum3


Edit: Because of Christmas I tried to upload the Changed Files and this worked out. The new fresh install I described hereabove is still available.

Here is my ext.php:

You are using custom messages in ext.php. The function is_enableable() changed in phpBB 3.3, see:

[3.3.0-b1] ext.php & custom reasons

[Kirk]

The ext.php works correctly, under 3.2 you get this message after installing an extension:

If there is an error in the ext.php, this extension can not be installed in 3.3, you will not get an error message.
In 3.2 you get an error message regarding the ext.php

[3Di]

If there is an error in the ext.php, this extension can not be installed in 3.3, you will not get an error message.

You're right, I tested with an extension ready for 3.3 and I put a wrong square bracket there on purpose.

I was able to see the debug error only with F12 (developer tools)

Thanks for reporting.
