I have tried several browsers with the same result.

Where do I find the mod_security option?

Posted the question above separately si it is not related to my original question. I was not allowed to edit the topic...

Another issue I have had for a while. It is still persistent after upgrading tonight.

When going into a topic which have several tabs on the top (like for example system/settings/posting), I can only see the content of the first tab. When clicking on any of the other tabs, the rotating "wheel" is showing and the system freezes. The only way to get out is to change to another topic  in the left menu. 

This happens in every topic with multiple tabs and when a tab is chosen.

Any ideas what to do to rectify this?

Yes, I figured out that was the way to go.

Hi,

I'm just started the automatic upgrade of my forum. It now hangs in the step 4: Download and Extract, and I can't get further.

How do I proceed?

Got it running and upgraded!

Seems like there was an error with the config_global file. Changing this with a backup file did the trick at least, have no idea why...

Uploaded the checker and ran it, with no issues:

PHP Requirements

• PHP version 8.1.14.
• cURL extension loaded
• DOM extension loaded.
• GD extension loaded.
• Multibyte String extension loaded.
• MySQLi extension loaded.
• OpenSSL extension loaded.
• Session extension loaded.
• SimpleXML extension loaded.
• XML Parser extension loaded.
• XMLReader extension loaded.
• XMLWriter extension loaded.
• Zip extension loaded.
• Exif extension loaded.
• You do not have the GMP PHP extension loaded. While this is not required for general use, it is required if you wish to use Web Push Notifications. You may wish to contact your hosting provider or system administrator to ask for it to be installed or consider switching to Invision Cloud Community which has Web Push Notifications enabled.
• 256M memory limit.
• No Suhosin restrictions.

Error messages are as follows (PHP 8.1):

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Undefined constant "�true�" in /home/5/l/lrforum/forum/conf_global.php:265 Stack trace: #0 /home/5/l/lrforum/forum/system/Settings/Settings.php(56): require() #1 /home/5/l/lrforum/forum/system/Patterns/Singleton.php(41): IPS\_Settings->__construct() #2 /home/5/l/lrforum/forum/system/Http/Url.php(771): IPS\Patterns\_Singleton::i() #3 /home/5/l/lrforum/forum/system/Http/Url.php(248): IPS\Http\_Url::baseUrl() #4 /home/5/l/lrforum/forum/system/Request/Request.php(276): IPS\Http\_Url::createFromString('https://www.lrf...', true, true) #5 /home/5/l/lrforum/forum/system/Log/Log.php(106): IPS\_Request->url() #6 /home/5/l/lrforum/forum/init.php(1034): IPS\_Log::log('Error: Undefine...', 'uncaught_except...') #7 [internal function]: IPS\IPS::exceptionHandler(Object(Error)) #8 {main} thrown in /home/5/l/lrforum/forum/conf_global.php on line 265

I have downgraded the PHP to 7.4.33 and tried to start the upgrade and run the requirements checker.  I get the message 

• You are running PHP version 7.4.33. You need PHP 8.0.0 or above. You should contact your hosting provider or system administrator to ask for an upgrade.

 When upgrading to 8.1 the upgrade fails and gives the same error as before.

Then I downgraded to 7.4 again and I'm able to access the admin panel. When stying to start the upgrade i get the following message:

1C287/2 You are running PHP version 7.4.33. You need PHP 8.0.0 or above. You should contact your hosting provider or system administrator to ask for an upgrade.

I have not bothered to try to upgrade to 8.1 at this stage, I expect I'll run into te same issues again...

In both cases is seems like upgrading the PHP as requested should solve the issue I'm having, it it something I'm missing here?

I've done that. I'll get back to you as soon as I hear back from them.

I have uploaded all files as described, but upgradig will not start. 

I get the message: www.xxx is currently unable to handle this request

This is basically the same message as I got prior to uploading all files manually.

HI,

My forum is offline after our host upgraded to PHP 8. The forum was unfortunately not upgraded to a version supporting PHP 8 so the site and admin are now offline.

How can this be solved?
