Errors after upgrading from 0.8.2

[Don Chambers]

Upgraded a s9y installation from 0.8.2 to 1.3.x - now getting the following error on the admin page:

Code: Select all

Notice: Undefined variable: template_loaded_config in /path/include/functions_smarty.inc.php on line 965
Notice: Undefined index: no_create in /path/serendipity_admin.php on line 235

Similar nocreate error listed before each plugin:

Code: Select all

Notice: Undefined index: no_create in /path/include/functions_config.inc.php on line 1126.

So.... what do I need to do?

Hi!

Simply tune down your PHP service do not show E_NOTICES, in production environments this is not suggested. Change the php.ini error_reporting for that.

s9y has a few places where strict variable initialization is not done, so those errors messages are nothing that you should be concerned about when the rest is working...

Thanks Garvin. I do not believe I have access to php.ini on this shared server. Since this upgrade was performed only to get the database up to 1.3, and will soon be exported and reimported on a new server, I am going to leave it alone for now.

Garvin - I have yet to find a way to suppress these messages.... I see them in the backend, creating entries, configuring plugins, etc....

However, the biggest problem just came to my attention. When trying to insert images from the media manager, I get the usual media manager window, but there is nothing in it other than the following error:

Code: Select all

Notice: Undefined variable: template_loaded_config in /path/serendipity/include/functions_smarty.inc.php on line 965 Notice: Undefined index: page in /path/serendipity/serendipity_admin_image_selector.php on line 30

There is no problem accessing the media library from the admin sidebar, and there does not appear to be any problems adding media either.

ideas?

Hi!

Those undefined indices are really stemming from a php.ini directive that sets too strict PHP outputs, you must comb them down. A lot of PHP applications, s9y included, do not behave properly because not all variables are initialised. That's a big pro for PHP, so it should not choke on that.

As for the popup: Have you tried to view the HTML Sourcecode and see if it contains any bad path references or so?
