I'll do that. Talked to the site owner. He says he got the instal from phpbb3, not the hosting provider. This is turning into a forensic search.... I see that startup.php was introduced at version 3.0.9. I don't know what version we were when first installed. But the board was started on Tue Feb 22,...

Hmmm, I didn't do the initial install nor did I do the upgrade but, the guy who did (the owner) is not a developer. (He's very good at following instructions - military.) I have been the admin since day 2, installed mchat and the questions captcha (thanks to the advice of users here) and I certainly...

Nope, that code is in common.php. That's where I changed it and now the error messages are gone. I never found a file called startup.php.

Within common.php it says a lot of stuff :-) But I think the part you are directing me to is this: // Report all errors, except notices and deprecation messages if (!defined('E_DEPRECATED')) { define('E_DEPRECATED', 8192); } error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE ^ E_DEPRECATED); I think the fix is: error...

I was afraid you would say that. I am looking at root/includes. There are files in there like bbcode.php, functions.php, a bunch of functions_....php. But no file called startup.php. And at the end of functions... . . . functions_user.php php 95.7 KB index.htm htm 169 Bytes message_parser.php php 49...

OK,
Got access to my host and it seems we don't have a startup.php in our includes directory.
I can't search for a file across all directories. Any advice on where to look?

Thanks!
Board says it is 3.0.11 :-/

I'm thinking it's really cosmetic and I can turn off the reporting once I get back on the server.

I missed your link. Seems like disabling the reporting is good enough.

Awesome!

But what's wrong with ho ho ho?

I once planned to spend time in Decisive but I just couldn't weigh the pros and cons.

You might want to spend some time in Conceivable. It's a mind blowing experience!

Hello, I typically have two tabs in my browser (ff) connected to phpbb3 sites with chat - this one and mine (forum.soaringhammer.com). Occasionally I use VPN to connect to a customer's system and then disconnect. I have found that I am still logged in to rmcgirr83, but I am no longer seen as logged ...

Done, easy, works, thanks Rich et al.
