Server move, not S9Y won't work - PHP error

Post by Boarderstu »

Hi guys,

I've just moved from FC5/Centos to Debian *nix, and now i get the following error when trying to access any of my S9Y blogs - any ideas?

Thanks!

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Call to undefined function input_name_to_filter() in /home/wakefieldfhs.co.uk/www/html/genblog/include/compat.inc.php on line 99

Hi!

Your new server has a more recent PHP version which utilized a function that did not go well with older s9y versions. You will now need to update your serendipity versions to at least 1.1.2.

You could also manually patch the include/compat.inc.php file to comment out the region where input_name_to_filter is used, but you need some knowledge to do that. :)

Regards,
Garvin
