CheersnGears Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Yes, I know PHP 8.2 is not currently supported. I'm starting this topic for the eventual discussion and to possibly help IPS with support in the future. I moved my site to 8.2 this morning, and it seems to be running fine so far. I will log any errors or issues I spot in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Calvert Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 I’ve played around with it in localhost environment without issue. But that does not catch everything that could happen in a prod setup. 🙂 Thanks @CheersnGears for being a lab rat! We will bring some cheese for you! 😂 tnn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adriano Faria Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Errors will mostly happen when you’re using a dev environment so any resource can be tested or updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adlago Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 My live site with 4.7.14, and test site beta 2 4.7.15 is with PHP 8.2 - no issues. The Old Man and tnn 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Silvester Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 PHP 8.2 will be fully supported in Invision Community 5. Whilst it may work with earlier versions such as 4.7, it isn't officially supported (there may be issues) and will likely mean that developers mode is unusable..

Glad to hear as PHP 8.1 does not support ImageMagick, but PHP 8.0 and 8.2 do, so that issue might need to be addressed for people not upgrading to v5 SeNioR- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreas Grace Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 As a matter of principle, PHP 8.2 should be supported officially for v4 in the next months. PHP 8.1 is already in security-only support and that expires on 25 Nov 2024. DSystem, SeNioR-, aXenDev and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taz.de Posted Monday at 01:52 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:52 PM One issue with PHP 8.2+ as far as I can tell, is that in Dev mode some pages act funny, with a bunch of our plugins that use the apparently standard IPB construct 'return \call_user_func_array( 'parent::' . __FUNCTION__, \func_get_args() );', throwing deprecation and Exceptioning out of most pages. You can of course disable deprecations in php.ini (```error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT```) But then the 'get support' page doesn't load, unless you hack some PHP code like this into the top of the core support.php file (```error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT);```). It's possible that under 8.2 / dev / prod mode it's also throwing other errors. Finding a php.ini error_reporting config that works for both use cases does not seem to exist. Looking forward to PHP 8.2 support soon. SeNioR- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreas Grace Posted Tuesday at 05:36 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:36 PM Well @Stuart Silvester wrote that it isn't supported. I didn't read any definite "won't be supported". In my humble opinion, this may have originated from a more optimistic release expectation date for v5. If this new release get delayed, how will it look that a current product in its latest stable version (v4) requires an unsupported PHP version?

Jim M Posted Tuesday at 06:02 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:02 PM As of today, there are not any plans to make PHP 8.2 or higher compatible with Invision Community version 4. However, like many things in the software world, this is written in pencil so could change as we progress through the end of version 4's lifetime.

Are you saying they dont support php 8.1 and 8.2? dear marc, nice to hear from you; php8.1 is not in the official debian repositories. they (our admins) hate it when we install php with using sury. most likely because safety and other standards. when you officially support only 8.1 (and when we have problems like my colleague described above) we can't use the 8.2 debian php package and have to install 8.1 from sury. or the admins have to build an own package. i think ipb/ips is the only software package we use which forces us to do such things. i hope you are well, best regards.
