I just applied his fix on a site with joomfish installed (english/norwegian) with no problems.
Note that i did the patch Manually as described by kjellhalen.
We're on joomla 1.0.15, joomfish V1.8.2, php 5.3.1 (one.com)
hope this info helps you solve it

Hi stianhaugli

Thanks for your answer. As you can see I have changed my reply, as I found
out that I today had set cache on. After changing this to off everything
was back to normal.

Well, also many thanks from us.
First our host had big trouble due to the fact that the raid controller messed up all the disks on his server. So we were waiting for a week to get the site and data restored (which was not obvious at first) and than this happened.... But quickly solved, thanks!

I had a PM today from a user that couldnt figure this out, so
For your convenience:

I've attached patched files for joomla 1.0.15.
fix_joomla_1015_php_530.zip
Copy them to /includes/Cache/Lite/Function.php and /includes/vcard.class.php
The _old files are the originla 1.0.15 source files. Dont copy them....

Your thanks should go to kjellhahlen for providing this sollution earlier in this thread.
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

You sould replace two files by the ones in the attachment:

/includes/Cache/Lite/Function.php
(this solves the "Reference instead of value"-problem)
/includes/vcard.class.php
(to make the contact form work again)

If you rather add the changes by hand:
The changes to vcard.class.php are minor, look for:

Code: Select all

if(!function_exists('quoted_printable_encode'))
In Function.php I added a this line twice:

Code: Select all

$arguments = $this->fixCalls($arguments);
The new function (fixCalls) is added at the end of the file.
Thanks, kjellhahlen!

Upgraded from PHP 4.3.9 to 5.3.2 here, in preparation to start moving to Joomla 1.5.x. Doing so broke Joomla 1.0.15, with the error mentioned here. Pretty annoying and I'd expect a lot of people prepping a migration might run into this. Anyway, your fix worked for me, thanks.
