magic_quotes_gpc

Hi Karls,

Do you ever see this error appear in your browser, or does it only appear in the error log?  Does it ever indicate a specific page where the error occurs.  

Let me know and we'll see what we can find.

Thanks

Hello Jason,

Not in the browser but only in the php error log in every page opening without a specific page name logging.

In a temp file like test.php put;

<?php
phpinfo();


Then run it, it will tell you which php.ini file is being used and should also have something like 'magic_quotes_gpc  ON' (or TRUE), if the php.ini is somewhere in your account go there and edit it, find 'magic_quotes_gpc' and change it to 'magic_quotes_gpc = Off;' you may need to restart apache for it to take effect.

If the php.ini is outside your control most hosting setups allow you to override the php.ini the method if different depending on the comtrol panel / hosting company but normally they will have something in thier FAQ's about changing settings ... but you can always just raise a ticket with your hosting company and say something like;

Would you please disable magic_quotes_gpc for my site it is causing me issues with software that I am running that expects the setting to be 'OFF'

Hello Larry,

Thank you for your interest on this.

In the phpinfo() i get: (first local, second master value)

magic_quotes_gpc  On  On
magic_quotes_runtime  Off  Off
magic_quotes_sybase  Off  Off

i put php.ini with magic_quotes_gpc = Off; i my working directory and the error is gone from my php error log.

Jason,
everything now is ok.

Thank you again,
Karls
