Hello @Michael.J! Are there any updates on this? I managed to update to 4.7.2.1 since it allows to manually re-enable the Portal application but now I'd like to update to 4.7.3 and I don't know if I still can re-enable the application afterwards. It would be nice if you could make it work for upcoming releases so I don't need to be afraid of updating my community anymore. Kind regards Sebastian

@Matt Even though I will update to 4.7.2.1 ASAP (hopefully by tomorrow), this temporary fix does not work for two reasons: The place you mentioned is where the license text is being generated, so this does not change the way the expiration is getting checked. This is why I changed it in the init.php. At least those are the only two occurrences of the term "expireSoon" in the whole product. applications/core/extensions/core/AdminNotifications/License.php /** * Notification Title (full HTML, must be escaped where necessary) * * @return string */ public function title() { switch ( $this->extra ) { case 'missing': case 'url': return \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->language()->addToStack('license_error'); case 'expireSoon': $licenseKeyData = \IPS\IPS::licenseKey(); return \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->language()->addToStack( 'license_renewal_soon', FALSE, array( 'pluralize' => array( \intval( \IPS\DateTime::create()->diff( \IPS\DateTime::ts( strtotime( $licenseKeyData['expires'] ) ) )->format('%r%a') ) ) ) ); case 'expired': return \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->language()->addToStack('license_expired'); } } init.php /* Check it hasn't expired */ if ( strtotime( $response['expires'] ) < time() or !$response['active'] ) { \IPS\core\AdminNotification::send( 'core', 'License', 'expired', FALSE ); \IPS\core\AdminNotification::remove( 'core', 'License', 'expireSoon' ); } else { \IPS\core\AdminNotification::remove( 'core', 'License', 'expired' ); /* Or there's 7 days or less to go */ $daysLeft = (int) (new \IPS\DateTime)->diff( \IPS\DateTime::ts( strtotime( $response['expires'], TRUE ) ) )->format('%r%a'); if( $daysLeft < 0 ) { $daysLeft = 0; } if ( $daysLeft <= 7 ) { \IPS\core\AdminNotification::send( 'core', 'License', 'expireSoon', FALSE ); } else { \IPS\core\AdminNotification::remove( 'core', 'License', 'expireSoon' ); } } So if your recommended change is the only attempt to fix this issue in 4.7.2, it will still occur.

Hehe, I was already wondering why the timestamp is timezone sensitive. Thank you very much! I guess my edits will be overwritten once I update to 4.7.2. So this is okay for now.

Hey, I'm running 4.7.1 on PHP 8.1 for a while now, never had this issue before. I updated to 4.7.2 the day before yesterday and needed to revert (restore from backup) since one of my applications is not compatible, yet (which also means I can not update to 4.7.2 right now). So I'm basically running 4.7.1 on PHP 8.1 again. The whole notification spam just started yesterday. Was this introduced in a patch release of PHP 8.1? Because I configured my managed hosting for PHP 8.1 a while ago but I can not choose the exact patch release. Kind regards Marco (actually not Sebastian, due to shared account...)

I added some debug code to the init.php...

Hey, I already was looking for a thread like this... yesterday I got like 200 mails in 2 hours and it's already 100 in the past 30 minutes. Would be happy to have this fixed. 🙂 Should note that I'm still on-prem. Kind regards
