Errors with php8.2 / 8.3

[stevent]

I just migrated a Joomla 3 site (which was still on Joomla 3.10.0…) to Joomla 4.4.3. When I set PHP to 8.2 or above, I get the following errors in the admin login page if the error messages are set to maximum:

Code: Select all

Deprecated: Creation of dynamic property Joomla\Database\Mysql\MysqlDriver::$charset is deprecated in /subsites/pintails-curlews.nl/libraries/vendor/joomla/database/src/Mysql/MysqlDriver.php on line 121

Warning: session_name(): Session name cannot be changed after headers have already been sent in /libraries/vendor/joomla/session/src/Storage/NativeStorage.php on line 405

And in the frontend or if I'm already logged in in the admin and change the php version:

Code: Select all

Deprecated
: Creation of dynamic property Joomla\Database\Mysql\MysqlDriver::$charset is deprecated in
/libraries/vendor/joomla/database/src/Mysql/MysqlDriver.php
on line
121

I've removed the old template and all incompatible plugins. In fact the only non core extension is Akeeba backup.
I created a child template based on Cassiopeia. But even if I set the template to the default Cassiopeia I get these errors.

Must I conclude that Joomla 4 isn't really php 8.2+ compatible (though the recommended requirements state otherwise)? Should I stick to outdated php 8.1 or just ignore the warnings (which won't show if the error messages are set to none)?

[AMurray]

deprecated notices just mean that a particular php function or feature is outdated. You can probably safely turn the error reporting to "default" or "none".

Did you update Akeeba Backup - and what version were/are you using?
https://www.akeeba.com/compatibility.html. Akeeba Backup 9.6.2 will run on PHP 8.2 but not 8.3. v9.8.5 will run on 8.2 and 8.3

Can you enable debug; that will give further detailed error messages to what the specific thing that is possibly causing the problems.
