Re: Request for testers: PHP 7.3 compatibility
Nope.. so mysqli is enabled, with normal php.ini it breaks on php7.3, with extension=mysqli.so inserted (redundant since it’s on but worth a try), it still breaks..
I’ll send it onto my hosting company and see if they have any insight..
Errors from another site below:
Warning: Use of undefined constant JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE – assumed ‘JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE’ (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in /home/user/public_html/textpattern/lib/constants.php on line 922

Re: Request for testers: PHP 7.3 compatibility
I’ll bite – what’s in php.ini locally? Does it work without the php.ini in place?

Similar error here – double check PHP versions.

I’m using the multi-site php feature so it seems pretty instant when it’s clicked in, not sure what that second setting is.. I know this must be a hosting setting as it works on my local server which is 7.3.10
uughhhh

Re: Request for testers: PHP 7.3 compatibility
Do you perhaps have anything like AddHandler in your .htaccess file of the site that might be switching back to an earlier version of php even though something else is set in your host?

The way the handler works it just edits the htaccess itself, so once I see the error I know php7.3 is enabled, when I switch back to 7.2 using the handler it’s perfect again..

Re: Request for testers: PHP 7.3 compatibility
It is something on the hosting side they are fixing something now, if anyone else gets an issue like this and is dealing with a hosting company, I found the below code so handy to replicate the problem for them, create a new empty database with user (full permissions), then create a test php page to do a simple connection. If they have mis-configured 7.3 they will see ‘Connected’ under 7.2, and after switching to 7.3 the error will display.
<?php
$mysqli_connection = new MySQLi('localhost', 'user', 'password', 'database');
if ($mysqli_connection->connect_error) {
echo "Not connected, error: " . $mysqli_connection->connect_error;
}
else {
echo "Connected.";
}
?>Thanks for the replies all :)

Re: Request for testers: PHP 7.3 compatibility
It works! I don’t know why but somehow when they switched to 7.3 it worked but when I did it didn’t, after clearing caches etc. So yay for hosting that works eventually :D
