You're using php4 code in php5. The code still works, but when PHP is set to strict, it issues warnings.

See here fore more info: http://pl.php.net/references#57550

Thanks for the response. Is there any file that needs to be changed or commennted out to make it is not strict . Please advice

Regards

You can define the php error logging behavior via php.ini. Check the error_reporting setting in php.ini and remove E_STRICT if present. E_ALL does report everything except E_STRICT in PHP <6. Also, if you've enabled display_errors in php.ini, you might want to disable that, so that errors are not displayed in the html output but are written only in the logfiles or when/where you want them to. If you're using pre-made scripts it is possible they change the settings during run-time and they might have their own configuration to set error reporting levels.

I am little embarrased to say that eventhough PHP was running and I searched for the php.ini file. I did not find it on the system. Is the file created duing the installtion or do we have to create it?

Regards

No reason to be embarrassed!

There's usually a default file created during installation. I don't know if the solaris package you used included it though.

To find the location of your php.ini, the easiest way is to create a small php script and call phpinfo(); which will output all kinds of configuration and environment settings. Copy the file in your webserver document root and open it with your browser, at the top you should find an entry "Configuration File (php.ini) Path" listing the location of the file (if there is any).

An example php.ini file can be found here http://www.reallylinux.com/docs/php.ini which you'd have to amend according to your requirements, but as your php displays E_STRICT errors which is not default, chances are quite high that you've got a php.ini floating about somewhere :)

<?
phpinfo();
?>

You can also do this at runtime if needed.  I use this quite a bit when developing or troubleshooting.  I build a quick config setting that I can turn on or off to either show errors or log them (development environment).

if($config['testing'] === true) {
    # FOR TESTING ONLY
    ini_set("display_errors", "on");
    error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT);
    # END TESTING
} else {
    ini_set("display_errors", "on");
    error_reporting(E_ALL);
}

Or you can just type this in manually, I'm lazy and clicking a button is easier.

I found that there is no php.ini file , so I have copied it from the source and place it under usr/php-5.3.0 which is my base directory for PHP. and set the dispayerror and displaystartuperror to off . Also took of E_STRICT and kept E_ALL. Every thing worked fine.

Thanks for all the help. Appreciate it

Regards
