PHP 5.2.5 and undefined indexes

[Shaun.Mitchell]

Hello,

My hosting provider upgraded my account to PHP 5.2.5 and I'm now seeing a ton of undefined indexes. I upgraded Serendipity to 1.2.1 but that didn't reslove it either. Here are some random errors I'm seeing:

Notice: Undefined index: searchresult_noEntries in /templates_c/mt3-independence^%%76^767^767E328F%%content.tpl.php on line 15

Notice: Undefined index: content_message in /templates_c/mt3-independence^%%76^767^767E328F%%content.tpl.php on line 26

Notice: Undefined index: prevent_sidebar_plugins_left in /include/plugin_api.inc.php on line 400

Any ideas what might be causing these notices?

EDIT: I was able to remove some noices by re-saving my configuration in the Administration section.

Thanks

Hi!

Seems your provider raised the PHP errorlevel to also show PHP Notices. Serendipity and Smarty both make use of unitialized variable usage (in a safe context), so you really should not raise the errorlevel to E_NOTICE. Many other PHP applications will then also show notices like that.

So you should talk to your provider to decrease the errorlevel to what it was before.
