Joomla 1.5 in php 5.6

[stavroch]

The site is Joomla 1.5 and the php version is 5.6
I get error in public_html/libraries/joomla/application/module/helper.php

Have you any solution of how can I make the site to work right?

What is the actual error message?

If it is just a PHP notice or warning, you can filter them by changing the error reporting option in Global Configuration to 'None'.

Joomla 1.5 is unsupported and vulnerable to attacks. Its last update 1.5.26 was released in March 2012. There is plenty of documentation how to migrate to a supported version.

I have already set the Global Configuration to None, but I can understand that it is not the right way.

Joomla 1.5's code base is truly last compatible with PHP 5.3. With changes in PHP 5.4 and later, there's no way to get it to run "error free" without just silencing all errors and there actually are a couple of classes that will fatal error on PHP 5.5 or 5.6.

For reference, Joomla 1.5 is PHP 4 compatible and as such has a lot of structures that are considered "bad" with more recent PHP versions. So a lot of the strict standards and PHP warning messages you end up getting come from the fact that the code is using PHP 4 structures (i.e. no visibility scopes, no static keyword, etc.)

The best way is to migrate your joomla 1.5 to joomla 3.6.0
