[SOLVED] php.ini display_errors = Off NOT respected

bobby953 · 03-18-2010, 09:55 AM

I have squirrelmail installed on my webserver. So When I'm checking my mail, I get the following errors (Notices and Warnings):

Code:

Warning: preg_split() expects parameter 4 to be long, string given in /usr/share/squirrelmail/functions/imap_messages.php on line 808

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /usr/share/squirrelmail/functions/mime.php on line 52

Notice: Undefined variable: charset_converted in /usr/share/squirrelmail/functions/mime.php on line 316

Notice: Undefined variable: charset in /usr/share/squirrelmail/functions/mime.php on line 317

Notice: Undefined variable: charset in /usr/share/squirrelmail/functions/mime.php on line 317

Notice: Undefined variable: charset in /usr/share/squirrelmail/functions/mime.php on line 317

Now, I have set these two in php.ini
display_errors = Off
error_reporting = Off

Why am I still seeing these Notices?

I am using latest php version on Centos 5.4. And yes, I have restarted my server after making the above changes in php.ini file. Any idea what's going on?

I thank you in advance and appreciate all your help.

Hi,

Are you sure you're editing the correct php.ini? What gives:

Code:

php -i|grep php.ini

You can add:

Code:

display_startup_errors = Off

Error_reporting is irrelevant but if you want to turn it off, you should use:

Code:

error_reporting = 0

Note also that you can put all of them in a .htaccess in the top squirrelmail directory (I guess it's /usr/share/squirrelmail). In that case you should use:

Code:

php_flag display_startup_errors off
php_flag display_errors off
php_value error_reporting 0

Regards

Bathory... a million thanks to you. I fixed the problem using your .htaccess solution.

php -i|grep php.ini

Code:

Loaded Configuration File => /etc/php.ini

I was using this file. I also tried:

display_errors = Off
error_reporting = Off
error_reporting = 0
display_startup_errors = Off

Although I am very happy that I am not getting those error messages anymore, but I am wondering why turning the above parameters off in /etc/php.ini did not work.

I'm also curious. You can create a php page containing phpinfo()

Code:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

and see if this in fact the correct php.ini that the php module uses and what are the values of these directives.

Hi... the phpinfo reports that local value for display_errors is still on. Where do I change the local value?

I've attached a screenshot of phpinfo output.

The local value is changed through .htaccess files or from within httpd.conf (and perhaps the other *.conf files included in httpd.conf).

using Centos 5.5 from Go Daddy Virtual Dedicated Server
php.ini display errors is on because i need that for other sites so...

I tried the .htaccess solution, restarted the server and it removed one error - but i had 4 left in squirrelroot/functions/mime.php

so i copied the .htaccess to squirrelroot/functions, restarted server but no difference

so i edited the mime.php and added ini_set("display_errors", 0); to mime.php and that fixed it (to some extent) at least it works
