Version 4 still does not run with PHP7?

[tobean]

Hi!

I've just upgraded from 3.2.4 to 4.0.0 without any problems (php 5.6, https). Then I tried to switch to PHP7 and still got an empty screen on the login page and the following error messages:

Has anyone an idea or is this still a bug in 4.0.0?

If you don't have the legacy mysql extension installed, just edit the config file and use "mysqli" as database type instead.

Thank you Matteo for this very simple solution!

It works now with PHP 7.0.11 and MySQL 5.5.52. I hope for some speed improvements with PHP7 instead of 5.6.

I have a problem with my upgrade too

I'm getting this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined method MDB2_Error::quoteIdentifier() in /home/opcinac1/public_html/icvads.com/lib/OA/Upgrade/VersionController.php on line 35

My admin installed the msqli extension or something but it still wont work...

he says that I need to put this somewhere but WHERE??

ini_set("include_path", '/home/opcinac1/php:' . ini_get("include_path") );

@Matija1506 Did you follow the very same suggestion I wrote above?

Normally an errore like the above means that Revive couldn't connect to the database.

[Matija1506]

Please treat me as a user that doesn't know anything :)

I installed it, configured it for our news portal and that's it...

BUT, as a matter of fact we recently moved that domain to a new server with our hosting company and that must be the problem...but they cannot help me that much they say...

You tell me " edit the config file and use "mysqli" as database type instead."

but where is that config file?

 

[Matteo Beccati]

@Matija1506 I'm sorry, but it's fairly hard to help someone who "doesn't know anything". A little googling might help understanding what the config file could be. If you've changed host it is also likely that your database credentials have changed, so you need to update such config file.

okey I found it and set the database type to msqli but it still gives the same error...

I tried changing the database user password but no succes...

I see the "Failure while upgrading schemas"

after click "continue", I back to the start page of upgrade, and it is cycle ((

I found th solution by myself )

reading install.log, I found that I use mysql 57 with gtid enabled, and installer can't create backup using "create table select * from ...."

so I put into my.cnf:

enforce-gtid-consistency        = 0
gtid-mode                       = OFF
 

and I succesfully finished migration )

I think developers have to add check for gtid in installer;
