phpVMS 5.5.2.72 (phpVMS 5.5.2 updated for PHP 7.2)

Stating “I got error’s all the way through and wouldn’t even let me install it on php 7.2” isn’t very helpful. What errors did you get?

PHP version? 7.2.what?

Apache version?

MySQL or MariaDB version?

After reaching out to this poster via PM, his install issues were alleviated. 

When in doubt, read the readme file included in the download.

Does this work on 7.3?

Sorry, at the present time it does not. It’s on my list to look at, but I can’t promise when I will have time or if its even possible.

i have an issue with the funktion bid on a schedule. Even in default skin its showing me bid is added, but there is no db-entry..-> “no bid’s on a flight where made”

 

i’ve searched the forum for similiar issues but nothign worked for me…

 

maybe someone have an idea?

 

page: oneengineout.de

When you hover the mouse cursor over the Add Bid link, look for the URL… does that URL indicate the bid ID number or not?

Please verify you are using phpVMS 5.5.2.72

What PHP version?

What MySQL or MariaDB version?

no it does not

 phpVMS 5.5.2.72 in use with PHP 7.4 and MySQL 5.7

phpVMS 5.5.2.72 will not work correctly with PHP version greater than 7.2 at this time - as stated in the readme. If you choose to use it with PHP versions greater than 7.2, I can not provide support and you basically become a test pilot.

Hello will this work with smartcars acars?

 

Yes, phpVMS 5.5.2.72 will work with smartCARS. You may need to make some minor edits to the smartCARS module (the site module) if you see any errors.

cheers thanks

Glad you got it working. I may look at it in the spring - after I get caught up on a few other projects.

Is there a tutorial to port a phpvms va working in php 5.6 into this new version?

No tutorial.

Are you presently using phpVMS 5.5.2?

Are you still able to use PHP 5.6 with your host? Are they forcing you to PHP 7.0-7.2?

We are using phpvms 2 (latest official one with tpl files), but ported it over to php 5.6 and it’s working fine. I want to switch over to php 7.0 for secuirty reasons, but I think none of my modules will work.

 

I’ve made an test installation and it’s a hard work to rebuild every module.

Going from phpVMS v2 to either 5.5.2 or 5.5.2.72 is a big step. Many of your modules will need editing or will not work at all. Also, the database has additional tables and fields within the existing tables. While many of us moved from v2 to v5.5.2 several years ago, it is not for the faint of heart. Lots of things will break and need fixing.

 

What security reasons do you think warrant the need to move from PHP 5.6 to PHP 7.0? Why move to PHP 7.0? PHP versions PHP 5.4, PHP 5.6, PHP 7.0, and PHP 7.1 are deprecated. If you move, why not move to 7.2? Just because a PHP version is deprecated doesn’t mean a phpVMS install can’t be run on it. There are many phpVMS sites still running on PHP 5.6 without issue.

 

Is your host forcing you to a newer PHP version?

 

Why not wait for phpVMS v7 to be released and move to it at that time? Of course, none of your modules or existing skin will work there either.

 

Have a look through this thread if you are adamant about changing PHP version to 7+

//forum.phpvms.net/applications/core/interface/index.html

This is version 2 that is compatible with PHP 7. While I personally have not used it, it may be worth a look.

I want to switch my whole server envoriment to php 7.2, because there are some other business projects on the server which are vulnerable with php 5.6, because there will be no secuirty updates anymore. At the moment my va is the only webpage stopping my switching to 7.2.

 

I am able to migrate the va to another server with one instance and php 5.6, but this could be wasted time, when I am able to port over the page to 7.2.

 

 

The link from phovms lecgacy with 7.0 support seems to be down ;(

 

 

 

Can you set PHP versions on a directory by directory basis? Many hosts provide this ability. Then you can have 7+ on some directories while keeping phpVMS on 5.6. If unsure if this is possible on your hosting, contact your host for guidance.

 

If you are going to change from v2 to v5.5.2.72, I suggest you install a fresh copy. Then install you skin and modules - one by one - and correct any issues with them. Once the new install is working without error, make a backup of your present database and convert that backup to include ALL of the v5.5.2.72 additions/changes. Finally, use this newly converted database in the new install of 5.5.2.72. Don’t forget to have PHP error logging enabled so you can find/fix all the errors.

 

As for any changes that need to be made to existing skins or modules, that is beyond the scope of this thread - and no support can be provided here as there are too many variables in skins and modules.

I don’t know if it’s just me (because Visual Studio does some crazy things), but in some common files, this happens:

 

RanksData.class.php

 

CronData.class.php

 

I don’t know if it’s a Visual Studio error, because if I use any of the functions above, they don’t work, because they’re in orange (I don’t remember the name of this, like string… :thinking:

I already deleted the file and create new one, but all the same…
