Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted August 18, 20222 yr As written in the title, I just bought and tried a fresh install of the software (4.7.1) using both PHP 8.1 and PHP8.0. When trying to install on PHP8.x I always get an error (as saw in the error log of apache) at the point of installation mr=191. The error is about the line 180 in Settings.php saying "array_merge() argument #2 is not an array", the installation halts with a blank page. I downgraded to PHP 7.4 and the installation worked, of course with the warning on the compatibility check saying that I should upgrade to 8.x. So right now I have a working installation of the suite, but I don't know If i should try to upgrade to PHP8 now or not.
August 18, 20222 yr Solution Hi, this was caused by a bug affecting only the installation process. It should be safe to upgrade to PHP 8.1 now

August 18, 20222 yr When trying to install on PHP8.x Don't do 8.1 (yet) if you intend to use Imagik, it's not ready for 8.1.
August 18, 20222 yr Author Don't do 8.1 (yet) if you intend to use Imagik, it's not ready for 8.1. Yes, for now I'm sticking to 8.0, waiting for some time before upgrading to 8.1 I suppose.
