Version 2.3.8

When creating or replying to posts and PMs this message displays at the top of the page:

Quote:

Warning: Compilation failed: nothing to repeat at offset 0 in /usr/home/web/users/a0012546/protected/forum-data/include/login.inc on line 92

It doesn't stop the posts from working.

Do you know why I get that and how to stop it?

Just say display_errors to off in your php settings.
This is not a harmful warning and it is fixed in 2.5 series.

Added that command to the php.ini file and all worked fine.

Now I moved to another webhost and they don't allow the .ini file (security reasons, they say), so, to get around this problem I added this to index.php:

error_reporting(0);

Seems to have done the trick. See any problem with this solution?

You probably want to mention to your webhost that leaving a default of error reporting ON is/can be something of a security problem in itself for its customers. Smile

There is nothing with leaving error reporting on, however on production sites, it is a good idea to set display_errors to off and enable error_log. That way you have a record (for debugging) of any & all php errors and users do not see freaky error messages that scare them.
