After update the Gibbons escaped!

Administration
1

Hi Community,
After update, from V25.0 to V26.0, the Gibbons escaped and i can’t login anymore.
Could it be that a maintenance switch in a php file is still set to ‘maintenance’ somewhere?
I can see the menubar, but below it is the escaped Gibbons message.
Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks

Hello @rovanov,

The best way to get a quick response on the forum is to provide as much information as possible when you get an error message.

Here is the information you should provide to help the software developers respond to you:

  • Image of the error
  • Version of Gibbon you are using (v26 in your case)
  • PHP version you are using
  • Operating system you are using (Windows, Ubuntu, etc.)
  • Extract from the PHP error log at the date and time of the crash.

Example of an extract from the PHP error log:

[Wed Nov 08 18:11:49.509454 2023] [php:error] [pid 832] [client 127.0.0.1:47154] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: count(): Argument #1 ($value) must be of type Countable|array, string given in /var/www/gibbon.local/modules/Timetable Admin/courseEnrolment_manage_class_edit_addProcess.php:44\nStack trace:\n#0 {main}\n thrown in /var/www/gibbon.local/modules/Timetable Admin/courseEnrolment_manage_class_edit_addProcess.php on line 44, referer: http://localhost/index.php?q=%2Fmodules%2FTimetable+Admin%2FcourseEnrolment_manage_class_edit.php&gibbonSchoolYearID=025&gibbonCourseID=00000002&search=&gibbonCourseClassID=00000002 1

By default under Ubuntu, then PHP error log file is /var/log/apache2/error.log.

THANKS !

Hi @rovanov

This commonly happens after an upgrade. The first thing I’d try is resetting the file and folder permissions either at the command line or using tools provided by your hosting provider.

I hope this helps.

Hi Smarcil, Thank you.

I didn’t want to burden the forum with unnecessary nonsense.

It is not a crash, which is why the apache log file does not contain any gibbon related notes.

The home page is displayed as usual. Only when I login then the Gibbons escape.

This happens when I upgrade from V25.0.0 to V25.0.1 and also from V25.0.0 to V26.0.0

I vaguely remember having this two years ago as well, then it was a little thing that solved the problem. But I forgot about it.
PHP 8.2.17
Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
Thanks & regards

Hi tiekubd, thank you.
is there somewhere a list of the necessary folder/file permissions?

Hi @rovanov

Do you have your own server or your site is hosted? Do you have access to the command line?

You will need to check and set file permissions and ownership.

You can make all the files in the Gibbon installation owned by the OS admin user, with the group set to the web server name.

Example chown apache:apache -R Gibbon_installation_folder

I’ll typically set all the folder permissions to 775 and files to 664.

I hope this helps

I’ve seen less friction with PHP v8.0.* try lowering if possible from v8.2. Otherwise check php error log under: cat /var/log/apache2/error.log assuming your files are being served by Apache.

Are you using any SSO for login or is normal login? (after upgrade sometimes SSO has issues that could be fixed with a simple composer install OR composer update).
Try one of these options and should be up and running.

Hi,
Thank you. I changed the permissions as you described but there is no difference.

Switch your PHP version 8.2.17 to anything 8.0.* It should fix the issue. (Lower your PHP version)

@kelvinmw

YES!!!
there was indeed the problem!
Thank you so much!

Nevertheless, Gibbon is now running on PHP 8.2.17 :slight_smile:

What I did:
Lowering to PHP 8.0.0 didn’t work.
I lowered the PHP version to 7.4.17, then I could log in again.

Upgrade the Database to v 26.0.0 (with php 7.4.17)
I was still logged in and set the PHP to V 8.0.0, everything continued to work including logging in and out.

I did the same thing with PHP 8.2.17.
Everything works normally now.

THANKS Community!

Hi @sandra ,

The problem of Ronanov seem to be related type-checking error.
