how about running this to find the int value to put into php.ini:
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_DEPRECATED);
echo error_reporting();
?>
i don't have 5.3 so i haven't tried.

Hi:
I am hoping someone can help me figure this out....
I've just upgraded my PHP installation to 5.3.0. Now I am receiving
thousands of log messages of the form "PHP Deprecated: ...".
I know I have a number of scripts that use now-deprecated
functions, etc.
and I now know what those are, thanks to all the messages.
However, this is now growing to (literally) gigabytes of log
entries, so I'd
like to stop the messages until I have the time to re-write all the
offending scripts.
I have tried the following error.reporting lines in php.ini:
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & E_ERROR & E_WARNING &
E_PARSE &
E_NOTICE & E_CORE_ERROR & E_USER_ERROR & E_USER_WARNING &
E_USER_NOTICE &
E_COMPILE_ERROR & E_COMPILE_WARNING
error_reporting = ~E_DEPRECATED & E_ALL & E_ERROR & E_WARNING &
E_PARSE &
E_NOTICE & E_CORE_ERROR & E_USER_ERROR & E_USER_WARNING &
E_USER_NOTICE &
E_COMPILE_ERROR & E_COMPILE_WARNING
error_reporting = E_ALL & E_ERROR & E_WARNING & E_PARSE & E_NOTICE &
E_CORE_ERROR & E_USER_ERROR & E_USER_WARNING & E_USER_NOTICE &
E_COMPILE_ERROR & E_COMPILE_WARNING & ~E_DEPRECATED
error_reporting = E_ERROR & E_CORE_ERROR & E_USER_ERROR &
E_COMPILE_ERROR &
E_COMPILE_WARNING & ~E_DEPRECATED
error_reporting = ~E_DEPRECATED & E_ERROR & E_CORE_ERROR &
E_USER_ERROR &
E_COMPILE_ERROR & E_COMPILE_WARNING
(as you can tell, I prefer verbose logs, but not that verbose...).
None of these combinations have stopped the "PHP Deprecated: ..."
messages.
System info: Mac OS/X 10.5.7 Client version, PHP 5.3.0 running as a
CGI
under Apache 2.2.11 and as a CLI. Please let me know if there's any
other
info that might help.
php_info() reports error.reporting as "0"
Any help or guidance is appreciated!!

Richard (and Tom):
This seemed like it would be the perfect solution...but alas it did
not work. 22527 seems right, but after changing php.ini to that and
restarting php and apache, I am still getting "Deprecated..." messages.
:(
I'll keep trying...and any other suggestions are much appreciated!
Thanks!

Dumb question, Jeff: are you sure you're editing the correct php.ini file?

Not a dumb question at all! I check every time (php_info()) to make
sure the "loaded configuration file" is the one I'm editing. So, as
far as I can tell, yes.
Should I be looking at something else to be sure?
Thanks!

i was about to ask the same.
phpinfo() will tell you the path to the in-effect config file.

i've now had a look at http://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.constants.php
in your shoes i'd try out 2047 (with is everything up to and including
E_USER_NOTICE) and possibly 6143 (=2047+4096) if you have your own error
handler.
if still no luck i can't think of anything else to suggest but work
backwards:
check the value returned by error_reporting() is the value you set in
php.ini.
binary decode it to double check.
if it sill makes no sense, check the php bugs db. and if nothing, maybe
report it.

Now open the newly created "pdf" folder :)
If you'd like a big fat one PDF file then use "phpbigpdf" rather then "phppdf"
The PDF version will be available soon. Ish. Maybe. Hopefully.

I installed haru, yet when I try the phd command, I get a "class
'HaruDoc' not found" error :( Has this happened to anyone else?

Hi,
I'm going to start my first e commerce website for a small web shoe store.
I think I know enough PHP to keep my head above water, I'm using an
add on shopping cart package to deal with the transactions.
My question is, what's the best way to design a site where each
product appears to have its own page.
Is there a way to create the site *without* having each product have
a physical separate page ?
Is there a method of web design which makes creating new pages
simple if they all follow the same pattern. i.e thumbnail,
description etc.
Thanks guys,
Matt.
Mat:
Certainly, here's an example:
http://ancientstones.com/
Each item is pulled from a database and the catalog is assembled as
the user instructs. When the user clicks on an item, then an
individual page is assemble to show that item. There are no static
pages, but rather templates where the contents are pulled from a
database to fill the templates (catalog page and item page) as the
user shows interest.
I also have a back-end script that allow the owner to upload pictures
of his product and add content (i.e., title, description, price).
Additionally, the "shopping cart" I use here is provided by PayPal
and NOT something I installed. Believe me, dealing with credit card
transactions is not without concern and liability. I recommend with a
small web store, it is worth considering passing all that
responsibility off to a company that deals with it routinely. It's a
simple process to use PayPal.
Cheers,
tedd

Installing LAMP is not a good idea for productive servers. Always stick with
the Packages of your distribution to get all upgrades.
Activating a module isn't hard at all, so... there's not really a need for
packages like "LAMP" on a unix-like OS.
The point in not using such Packages like LAMP on a system which isn't
productive is learning to set up a productive server. You decide.
mod_auth_pam might be a way fo accomplish what you want.
Just my two cent.
