None of those are actual errors. If you are seeing this output while running the software, please make sure that display_errors is turned off on production sites.

The first one is something we might have to look at.

The rest are from the parsing of your specific templates. Do the issue occur in a default style without template modifications?

What version of PHP are you using?

[voyger]

I am using the default style non teplate modification using PHP 7.3
can't enter the CPanel

[Wayne Luke]

Hmmm, the offset Curly Brace code was not deprecated until PHP 7.4. Can you verify that PHP version again?

[Wayne Luke]

I've created a bug for the Curly Brace issue here: https://tracker.vbulletin.com/vbulle...sues/VBV-19964

[Wayne Luke]

The 'title' issue is a bit broad for a quick search to determine which templates are causing the issue.

yes my test forum is on PHP 7.4
is there any way to fix this or I have to wait next VB update

[Wayne Luke]

Turning off error display should resolve the visible issues.

For the braces, you can try fixing the issue if you wish...

Open includes/vb5/frontend/routing.php and find line 78. It should look like this: if (strlen($path) AND $path{0} == '/').
Change it to: if (strlen($path) AND $path[0] == '/').

[Wayne Luke]

That one is coming from a template and I have absolutely no way to determine which template from the messages provided. The best way to resolve this at this time is to turn Display Errors off and turn off Debug Mode in vBulletin. Then they should not be output to the browser.

[voyger]

how I turn Display Errors off and turn off Debug Mode in vBulletin

[voyger]

turned debug mode off on core/include/config.php still get the same error
as my test forum is on PHP 7.4 if I take buck to PHP 7.3 will resolve this error problem ?

[Wayne Luke]

The steps to turn off debug mode in vBulletin are the opposite of turning it on. https://www.vbulletin.com/go/vb5debug

What is the display_error value in your php.ini file? It should be 0.

These notices shouldn't cause problems on your site. However, sometimes when shown, they can break Javascript and HTML. Setting the above value to "0" will prevent them from being sent to the browser. They will still be logged in the PHP error log. This is the only way to solve the issue right now. I hate to sound like a broken record but changing the code really isn't something we do in Support.

hi VB team
still got problem update my test forum from 5.5.5 to 5.5.6
got MySQL 5.7 PHP7.4

when try to upgrade get long list of error to be delete can you pleas tell us witch i have to delete before i get in to trouble




thanks

[Wayne Luke]

You shouldn't have to delete anything. You would only see the above screen if you run install.php on an existing database. You should be running upgrade.php. The screen before this provides a link to switch to upgrade.php.

[voyger]

thanks wayne
now get this error

Warning: file_get_contents(): Filename cannot be empty in .../install/makeconfig.php on line 271 Error - Could not open backend config file.

on line 71got this

$configContent = file_get_contents($componentInfo['source']);

thanks again for the patience
