Looks like there is a problem with Compact Message feature.
I ran it and that's the output:

Probabily this is because I don't have any Private Message (Forum just opened).

Message refers to both 2.7.3 and 2.7.4 (I did the upgrade half an hour ago)

Yup, that's the case.
This patch should fix it.

Sorry, but it didn't work completely.

Now I see that ETA is calculated on other steps, but still I got that error.
I looked inside the code and found that the cause is not directly the absence of private messages in the board.

The ETA function is the thing that messes up everything.
I got the error on its 4th line, where the division is. Maybe because PMs are none, but I couldn't deeply analyze the code
<?php
function eta_calc($start, $pos, $pc)
{
        $cur = time();
        $prg = $pos / $pc;
        $eta = ($cur - $start) / $prg * (10 - $prg);
        if ($eta > 60) {
                echo ($prg * 10) . "% done<br>\nETA: ".sprintf('%.2f', $eta/60)." minutes<br>\n";
        } else {
                echo ($prg * 10) . "% done<br>\nETA: " . $eta . " seconds<br>\n";
        }
}
?>
If $pc is zero, theorycally $prg is infinite and $eta is a finite number (equal to $cur-$start).)

With the patch I've posted earlier the entire private message compacting block is skipped in the event there are no private messages. Meaning that the eta_calc() function wouldn't even be called if there are no private messages.

Sorry but it still doesn't work...

I clicked on th patch link, then on the
install/www_root/adm/compact.php link and right-clicked and Saved "1.61" (Mozilla Firefox). I went in the Admin area, File Manager, adm directory. I deleted the old compact.php file, uploaded the new one, CHMOD 0755 (my server requires it) and I still got that error, as follows:

When I said there are no private messages in the Forum, I was unfortunately wrong. The first user already started to chit-chat Smile, because there are entries in the Forum_pmsg table (I suppose that's the PM table).

So maybe this error is caused by something else...
