1.8.0 Rendered Server FUBAR

After upgrading to 1.8.0 earlier this morning every web site on my server was rendered useless. This isn’t good and repairing everyone’s web site isn’t exactly the easiest thing to do.

I want to go back to 1.7.x ASAP.

It might be a simple fix (like squailto’s php.ini change) but at this point I’m mobile and SSH’ing into my server isn’t exactly possible.

The fix is going to be a quick one, faster than trying to revert to 1.7.1.

If you go to https://secure.interworx.info/iworx-cp/support/rootdrop.php
and provide us with your server login info we’ll investigate immediately. We’ll need to more details about the problems you’re seeing when you fill out the form.

Did I mention that the upgrade also hosed my SquirrelMail installation? The one that all my clients rely upon.

The phpBB installations I could find are now working, and the login page for your Squirrelmail seems to work, although I of course don’t have any login to test it with.

Let us know if you find any other specific problems.

More problems found:

There are a string of errors at the bottom of http://www.jrjphoto.com/

There are also a myriad of errors here:

Resolved those issues by changing the line

error_reporting = E_ALL

to

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

in /etc/php.ini
