Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

I get this error whenever I try to access the administration page.

I am hosting it locally because it's only a college project and doesn't require an actual server upload.

The error is too long to post here, so I'll attach it in a text file.

see in HERE

You have "Strict Standards: Non-static method" errors, this is because of the error reporting settings in your Xampp php.ini file. In the php.ini file make these changes and then restart Apache;

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

display_errors = Off

You must restart Apache before these changes take effect. If you are unsure where you php.ini file is try running this file on your server and look for the "Loaded Configuration File" line.

So, what exactly do I do?

Do I perform "Find and replace" within the .ini file and replace error_reporting = "E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE" with "display_errors = Off"?

Find
error_reporting =

and change it to look like

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

find
display_errors =

and make sure it is looks like

display_errors = Off

then restart Apache

Thanks, I'll give that a try =]

BOOYAH!!! Yeah that worked! Thanks a bunch!! =D

Yep, worked for me too. FYI.

And Thanks!

for developer and debugger
instead of chaging php.ini
goto joomla configuration file and replace
$error_reporting = '-1';
with
$error_reporting = '6143';

& it's done

Then I think. It's not "Problems solved", It's "Problems hidden".
I've checked on Ver1.6. In config file there's $error_reporting = '-1';
So why does Ver1.7 have error then?

yes! it's just problem hidden.. but if you want to move further with 1.7 then you have to hide these error....otherwise its hard to develop something with 1.7...
basically with the php5, joomla 1.7 cant follow the strict standards of php.

i install 1.7 and i do it but my problem dident solved yet
i use appserv

nicmehr.. set mysql privileges and then try again ..

means set password with user 'root'

Open Joomla admin
go to global configuration and server
please change error reporting to SIMPLE (instead of none, as mentioned there)

dpacadmin's solution (the same as jhonhussy's) worked for me also - using xampp 1.7.4 on Wni Vista Home Premium x64

1. Stop Apache and mysql services ( you may have to do it through SCM in Xampp control Panel)

2. open c:/xampp/php/php.ini

3. find Display_Error

4. there are two entries for Display_error one is with ; in start that is a comment second without ;

5. change Display_Error Off ( default it is On)

6. Start the services back.

7. http://localhost/joomla### and it should work.

Thanks that worked for me.

Thanks you soo muchh!!!!!!!!! its only the begining and its already a struggle.

I found two php.ini files in the php folder changed the codes as instructed above but that didnt help

so I searched again using c:/xampp/php/php.ini in interenet explorer found the file opened it and searched for Display_Error and changed it to Off.

are there any good tutorials for beginners?

Thanks savynaeem - I'm running 1.7 and was wondering why the original error fix wasn't working.

Cheers for the solution. Just getting started with Joomla, lots to learn!
