Problem installing cake php - php

I have installed wampserver on my pc. I unzipped the cake php installation files in the "www" folder of wampserver. Now, when I try to run- "http://localhost/cakephp", I get a whole list of errors along with the cake php getting started page. Here are some of the errors:
Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in
D:\wamp\www\cakephp\cake\libs\inflector.php on line 131
Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in
D:\wamp\www\cakephp\cake\libs\configure.php on line 136

Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in
D:\wamp\www\cakephp\cake\libs\configure.php on line 906
How do I fix this? I got similar errors for codeignite.

Which version of PHP are you running ?
To get E_DEPRECATED errors, it must be PHP 5.3 (which is quite recent) -- and I think the last version of WampServer uses this one.
See :
Predefined Constants
PHP 5.3.0 Release Announcement
As it's pretty recent and brought lots of new stuff, you might run into some kind of troubels (you actually did) with PHP 5.3.... Especially if the software you used is not compatible with it yet.
You might want to downgrade to the previous version of WampServer...
Or you could try lowering the error_reporting level (see also error_reporting), to not get those warnings.
But if you are getting those, you'll probably run into other problems as well...
Actually, after a rapid search into CakePHP's Trac, I found at least those :
Ticket #6026 : php 5.3 needs error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED);
Ticket #6500 : PHP 5.3 incompatibility
None of those is solved... So it seems CakePHP is really not ready for PHP 5.3... (It's probably not the only Framework in this situation btw -- Zend Framework v 1.9 which went out couple of days ago is the first version that officially supports PHP 5.3, for instance)
If you want to work with CakePHP, so, you'll probably have to use PHP 5.2.x (like 5.2.9 or 5.2.10).
You're actually not the only one in your situation, it seems... Too bad, as there are pretty nice things in PHP 5.3...

hi I faced the same problem. I have easyphp installed and the latest easyphp is also using php version 5.3. I downloaded cakephp stable version : Release: 1.2.4.8284 Stable. When i opened the web page, i also got the same 'depricated' notices. I also tried mangling with the 'error_reporting' section with no luck.
As I didn't want to downgrade my php 5.3 to an earlier version, I tried CakePHP 1.3-dev. And the problem was fixed.

I am also having the same problem.....I downgraded wamp5 2 to wamp 1.6.0...Now its working perfect

I had similar issue and I installed the 1.3.0-beta and the problem went away...
e

I tried one solution given by Pascal:
https://trac.cakephp.org/ticket/6026
applied this patch and in my case this helped. Thx

I had also same problem but I got resolve by changing in httpd.conf and php.ini
My changes are here-
in httpd.conf
replace
#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
to
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
and in tab Directory "{yourdirectoryname}:/wamp/www/">
replace
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
to
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
in php.ini
make curl ext on. there is no need to run but you should do :)
extension=php_curl.dll
My server and php configuration was
Apache Version : 2.2.17, PHP Version : 5.3.4

Magento2 setup error stating i need to change php.ini setting but it is already set

I am trying to set up a Magento 2 app.
I keep getting an error like this:
Your PHP Version is 5.6.31, but always_populate_raw_post_data = 0.
$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is deprecated from PHP 5.6 onwards and will be removed in PHP 7.0.
This will stop the installer from running. Please open your php.ini file and set always_populate_raw_post_data to -1.
If you need more help please call your hosting provider.
First of all I have 3 dirs: PHP5.6.31, PHP7.0.23, PHP7.1.9.
So in the PHP 5.6.31 i have 3 ini files all of witch have this setting.
always_populate_raw_post_data to -1
The other 2 folders PHP7.0.23, PHP7.1.9 don't have this in the php ini because it is newer version of php. My question is what can i do to resolve this issue if the php ini does have the correct settings but the install says otherwise?
Well Magento 2.1.11 does not support PHP 5.6.31, but only from 5.6.4 and upper.
Have a look here.
So, try first running
which php
to see which version it is trying to use, then either you can uninstall the 5.6 version and (better) use the php7 version, or be sure it is using the proper one.
Hope it helps.

FOSuserBundle and php 5.5

Ive searched the PHPuserBundle documentation and cannot find any reference to php version support issues.
Ive just upgraded my php version to 5.6 (using XAMPP) and I get the following error when sending to login_check.
Attempted to call function "mb_convert_case" from namespace "FOS\UserBundle\Util
Is it best to stick with 5.4 for now? I tried 5.5 and got the same error. My only reason for wanting to upgrade was to stay up to date, so its not life or death but Im curious.
thanks.
Try to uncomment/add this line in your php.ini:
extension=php_mbstring.dll
Latest version ("friendsofsymfony/user-bundle": "2.0.*#dev") of FOSUSerBundle works with PHP>=5.3.2.
You can check this in packagist.org - https://packagist.org/packages/friendsofsymfony/user-bundle
If you are working under Windows then you must uncomment php_mbstring.dll in php.ini file. Check this answer - mb_convert_case undefined function (Symfony2 FOS/UserBundle)

Debian PHP 5.4.27 vs Ubuntu PHP 5.4.16

Well, I'm transferring a little web server from one computer to other, on the 'other' computer I cannot a more updated version of PHP,
I just have to add my files through ssh and that's all, when I load my webpage it says explicitly:
The error is showing on a Debian with PHP 5.4.27 squeeze, the webserver comes from an Ubuntu with PHP 5.4.16 oneiric
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in ~directory~ on line 38
This is the line 38.
$VALUE=$DB->query("a nice sentence")->fetch()[0];
So, i was pretty surprised because PDO was accepted since PHP 5.1, so, i look deeper and i found the possible error, you can't simply do ->fetch()[0], you must separate it in order to be "processed",
However, I have transport this server with this information before, so i really don't know if it's something on the configuration of PHP or maybe the version by itself 5.4.X? You guys know any hint? As I said, i can't just install other updated version of PHP5, what do you recommend?
Have a nice night.
Edit: updated to the issue on the PHP 5.4 now
The error seems triggered by the array dereferencing. This was added in PHP 5.4.. Not sure how you made that work in 5.3.6
http://nl3.php.net/language.types.array.php
To workaround you could try
$VALUE = $DB->query("a nice sentence")->fetch();
echo $VALUE[0];
PHP Version on my ubuntu (where it works):
PHP Version 5.4.16
PHP Version on the Debian (where it does not work):
PHP Version 5.4.27-1~dotdeb.0
This version number was extracted by using phpinfo(); on the index page.
Apparently, the error was solved by JUST changing the first issue line (the other hundreds of codes that had that wasn't necessary to change, what i believe to be a little weird).
$VALUE = $DB->query("a nice sentence")->fetch()->offset(0);

Class 'Memcache' not found & PHP

I installed memcached by reading this article on Windows7 but unfortunately i keep getting error Fatal error: Class 'Memcache' not found in D:\xampp\htdocs\test\memcache\test.php on line 2
Line 2: $memcache = new Memcache;
Win7 64, Xampp Installed. I am using net start "memcached Server" on command line but it says service is already started.
Some other info which may help;
On php.ini file:
extension=php_memcache.dll
[Memcache]
memcache.allow_failover = 1
memcache.max_failover_attempts=20
memcache.chunk_size =8192
memcache.default_port = 11211
Update: phpinfo(); show dll is not loaded. Tried several different dll files so far, didn't work. Also dll is located correct. It is in the right folder as it seems.
(P.S. Some may think there are possible duplicates about this topic but there is only 1 person who followed the same instructions and had same error in SO. That question has no answer or solution since march.)
I found the working dll files for PHP 5.4.4
I don't knowhow stable they are but they work for sure. Credits goes to this link.
http://x32.elijst.nl/php_memcache-5.4-nts-vc9-x86.zip
http://x32.elijst.nl/php_memcache-5.4-vc9-x86.zip
It is the 2.2.5.0 version, I noticed after compiling it (for PHP
5.4.4).
Please note that it is not 2.2.6 but works. I also mirrored them in my own FTP.
Mirror links:
http://mustafabugra.com/resim/php_memcache-5.4-vc9-x86.zip
http://mustafabugra.com/resim/php_memcache-5.4-nts-vc9-x86.zip
Add this to your php.ini:
extension="php_memcache.dll"
and restart apache
Memcached just uses standard text interface so its possible to use it without the module.
// connect
$link = fsockopen($host,$port,$errno,$errst,$timeout);
// set
$data = sprintf("set %s 0 %s %s\r\n%s\r\n",
$key,$expire,strlen($value),$value);
fwrite($link,$data);
$result = trim(fgets($link));
if ($result == 'ERROR') {
// :(
}
// get
$data = sprintf("get %s\r\n",$key);
fwrite($link,$data);
$line = rtrim(fgets($link));
if ($line != 'END') {
return rtrim(fgets($link));
}
So i have looked now for a solution. Here you can download some compiled extensions.
http://downloads.php.net/pierre/
The problem is that at the moment there is no memcache extension for PHP 5.4. this is the problem why your extension could not be loaded. You need the extension for the correct PHP version and Tead Safe for Windows.
So the easiest way is to work with PHP 5.3 if you need the extension.
The newest version of memcache is the version 3.0.6 but its a beta version you can see it here.
http://pecl.php.net/package/memcache
You could try to take the beta version and compile it with your windows system. But its a lot of work.
Also problem can be in loading another version of php module somewhere in apache .conf files. Need to check duplicated "LoadModule php..." directives and if that module compiled to correct version of apache.
It seems sound simply, but not when you have several versions of php on one machine :)
Or it can be SElinux problem too.
xampp windows version is 32bit ,you must be use 32bit memcache.dll
I hole that would be useful for you!

wamp cannot load mysqli extension

WAMP installed fine, no problems, BUT...
When going to phpMyAdmin, I get the error from phpMyAdmin as follows:
Cannot load mysqli extension. Please check your PHP configuration
Also, phpMyAdmin documentation explains this error message as follows:
To connect to a MySQL server, PHP needs a set of MySQL functions
called "MySQL extension". This extension may be part of the PHP
distribution (compiled-in), otherwise it needs to be loaded
dynamically. Its name is probably mysql.so or php_mysql.dll.
phpMyAdmin tried to load the extension but failed. Usually, the
problem is solved by installing a software package called "PHP-MySQL"
or something similar.
Finally, the apache_error.log file has the following PHP warnings (see the mySQL warning):
PHP Warning: Zend Optimizer does not support this version of PHP - please upgrade to the latest version of Zend Optimizer in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning: Zend Platform does not support this version of PHP - please upgrade to the latest version of Zend Platform in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning: Zend Debug Server does not support this version of PHP - please upgrade to the latest version of Zend Debug Server in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning: gd wrapper does not support this version of PHP - please upgrade to the latest version of gd wrapper in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning: java wrapper does not support this version of PHP - please upgrade to the latest version of java wrapper in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning: mysql wrapper does not support this version of PHP - please upgrade to the latest version of mysql wrapper in Unknown on line 0
So, for some reason PHP is not recognizing the mysql extension.
Anyone know why? Any solution or workaround?
I deleted the PHP in program files ad everything started working , the problem that there two installations of pHp
I tried many solutions, and none worked for me. I tried the following solutions:
Restart wampserver
Reinstall wampserver
restart machine
and all other solutions mentioned in this question.
However, none of these worked. Then I found that my PHPMyAdmin was not working in chrome and was working in firefox. So I tried clearing cache, restarting browser etc, but still it would not work.
Then I deleted all the files from C:\wamp\tmp and then tried again, and it works. I am not sure why it works, but here is what I think. The session was cached and not getting cleared. So as soon as I deleted all files in this directory all the sessions were deleted and hence it worked fine.
First, make sure that the php.ini file is loading the mysqli extension.
If you are using WAMPServer, click on the icon in the system tray, go to PHP -> PHP Extensions and make sure it is checked. If not, go into the php.ini file and make sure that the line: extension=php_mysqli.dll is uncommented (eg, remove the ; if it exists). If that line does not exist, add it.
If this still does not work, double check that the right php.ini file is being loaded.
To do so, view your phpinfo() (Here for WAMPServer). Scroll down to the Loaded Configuration File row and see which php.ini is being loaded.Make sure it is the right file. If you're using WAMPServer, it should be(WAMP INSTALL FOLDER)\bin\apache\Apache2.2.11\bin\php.ini. By default, it isC:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.2.11\bin\php.ini`.
If a different php.ini file is being loaded, just rename it to something else so that PHP will try and find the file somewhere else. There should be a way to specify which on eyou want to use, but I forget exactly how to do that...
If this still doesn't work... Try messing around with phpMyAdmin's settings, or using another answer, but I'm afraid I can't help beyond this.
I was running WAMP with two PHP versions 1) 5.2.9 and 2) 5.2.13.
As per site requirement i needed to change PHP version to 5.2.9 from 5.2.13. after swapping PHP version, error was "mysqli extension is missing". after debugging long time i get to know it was due to wrong "extension_dir" path in php.ini file.
So i changed its value:
Old: "extension_dir" c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.2.13/ext/
New: "extension_dir" c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.2.9/ext/
Restarted All services in wamp server, then it's fixed.
I had the same problem. I had WAMP server installed. All was working fine. Then one day I restarted my computer and it just stopped working! I tried desperately going through all help posts and doing them but nothing worked.
What they usually suggest you do is, first go to your php.ini file and make sure your 'extension_dir' is properly set. Then to make sure these two lines are not commented (remove the ; infront):
extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll
Then some suggested that I download fresh copies of these two files but none worked. I also tried uninstalling everything (php/mysql/apache) and reinstalled fresh copies of WAMP server several times but with no luck.
Finally I managed to find an alternative solution. I switched to 'easyphp' (http://www.easyphp.org/). This is something very similar to WAMP. First I made backups of my sql databases so I can reload them on the new installation.
Then I installed 'easyphp' and everything seems to work fine. I reloaded my sql databases from my backup and now things are back to normal.
I hope someone suffering from a similar prob. will find this useful. If someone has really found a fix to make WAMP server work. Pls do be kind enough to post it here so many will benefit.
in wampserver go to php.ini. open the file and uncomment extension=msql.dll by removing semicolon(;) for respective operating sytem.
Just add in your php.ini:
[PHP_MCRYPT]
extension=php_mcrypt.dll
[PHP_MYSQL]
extension=php_mysql.dll
[PHP_MYSQLI]
extension=php_mysqli.dll
Also setup the mysql password:
SET PASSWORD FOR root#localhost=PASSWORD('your_password');
And the phpmyadmin mysql password in config.inc.php:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'your_password';
Had the same problem, with wamp. Try to exchange your current version of php.ini with a backup. There is one in: wamp\bin\php\php5.3.0phpForApache.txt. Worked for me.
Just wanted to chime in on this one. Using Wamp Server 2.0, and using Zend Studio with Zend debugger for development.
I wasn't able as of yet (will get back to it at some point) to get the zend debugger working with php 5.3. So in wamp I loaded an earlier php version, 5.2.11. I was getting the same error when acessing php my admin.
What I had to do was change the php.ini file value for "extension_dir" to c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.2.11/ext/ to match the version of php I was using. After that it was all good.
I had this problem and spent 2 hours trying all the solutions online, none worked.
Tried this, and it woked:
Change
mysql.default_host =
to
mysql.default_host = localhost
and restart WAMP. pay attention if you are using mysqli or not.
I had the same error. When I increased the script memory size and enabled E_ALL then restarted the server, I got that error in phpmyadmin. All I had to do to fix it was restart my computer!
I got this problem for a long time. Tried all I've read on forums and this finally worked for me:
Open your php.ini (I assume you've got the good one that is loaded...) and find this line
mysqli.default_port = 3306
change for
mysqli.default_port = 80
Restart all services
Go to localhost/phpmyadmin -> won't work
Reopen the php.ini file and retype this
mysqli.default_port = 3306
Restart all services
Worked for me.
For me worked this, after searching all logs/internet/every non-normal things.
You have to register dl by:
Through application:
WAMP -> PHP settings -> enable dl
or
# php.ini #
; Whether or not to enable the dl() function. The dl() function does NOT work
; properly in multithreaded servers, such as IIS or Zeus, and is automatically
; disabled on them.
; http://php.net/enable-dl
enable_dl = On
I have just installed WampServer, and faced same problem. I have found solution, that works for me, it is ridiculously simple.
Disable PHP extension php_mysqli.
Restart WampServer, visit local phpmyadmin.
Enable php_mysqli back.
Repeat step 2.
After few page refreshes, remaining errors plates (about MySQL and sqli) had gone.
i tried hard by
installing the wamp again and again,
by checking the php.ini file,
by restarting the machine,
by replacing the index.php file,
but none works.
then i go to the wamp/temp and deleted all files and it works fine now.
I had path variable in windows set to some random version of php.
The fix was to update it and set it to the folder within my wampserver installation:
C:\wamp64\bin\php\php5.6.38
Then I realized this is wrong also for my specific case, and I should actually be running the script from within vagrant. Live and learn.
I had this issue because of a different reason:
Check the PHP Error Log(Get from the Wamp Tray -> PHP -> PHP Error Log.
I had a syntax error in the php.ini file while I was editing the file.
Check the log and clear the error. This will open your PhpMyAdmin properly.
Check your phpForApache.ini file's extensions. This file should be same as your php.ini file.
