After upgrade to 560PL2

[Big Island]

Thanks Luke. That pointed me towards the solution. The VB software was located in the /forum subdirectory which was php 7.2, but the root level was still 7.0.x

Making them the same resolved...

Okay, gave that a shot and still same error unfortunately.

I'm using m-d-Y , looking at it in admincp it looks like it needs to be changed to: %d.%m.%Y

Does that seem right?

Okay, so I've downloaded 562PL1 without PHAR. Still getting the same:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting :: (T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM) in /home/sitename/public_html/forum...

Question: Is the vb.phar file unreadable? I've opened it to have a look and much of the text is visible, but a lot is showing as NULL as well.

[Big Island]

Thanks. Removed them all, but the issue persists

Just performed our production upgrade to 5.5.6 and our default style isn't coming up as the default style that users get. Can someone tell me how to set it as the default rather than the vb5 default ...

[Big Island]

I've recently updated my forum from 4.x to 5.5.6 and the upgrade caused the VB daabase to grow to over 1GB. My current hosting company siteground.com limits the database size for my plan (even though...

Thanks Mark,

Tried the upgrade this evening, and got the following error:

Any ideas on how to proceed?

Just took advantage of the holiday sale to purchase version 5 today. My hosting company had to keep the PHP version at 7.0.33 to keep vb4.2.5 working.

It looks like v5 needs PHP 7.3 or above,...

Thanks Wayne. It's already set to UTF-8 so that probably won't solve it. So it looks like upgrading to 5.5.X is the way to go then?

Using quick reply, apostrophes are fine:
