[SOLVED] CBSubs - SOME admin pages blank after 2.5.22 upgrade

Testing this recommended Joomla upgrade on development server, and it seems to have broken stuff in CBsubs.

In the CBSubs administration panel, certain pages just give a blank white screen ( no data - nothing, not even the Joomal admin menu is loading)

the pages that are coming up blank are:

Settings
Statistics
Taxes
Promotions
Mailer


ALL OTHER PAGES are loading fine. In CB, Paid Subscriptions, and indeed in the Rest of Joomla.

when I turn on the debugging I get dozens of these

... on each of those "blank" pages.

1. Exact PHP version 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.2
2. Exact CB version - 1.9.1
3. Exact Joomla version 2.5.22
4. Detailed description of problem. (see above)
5. Any error messages reported with Joomla debug mode on and error reporting set to maximum? (see above)
6. Any error messages reported with your hosts error log? (as above)
7. Any ACL modification components? (JACL, etc..) none
8. Any SEF components? none
9. Have you moved or encrypted the Joomla configuration.php file? no
10. Upgrade from CB version 2.5.16
11. Migrated from Joomla version no
12. What browser is issue present in? ALL BROWSERS

I'm not sure how a Joomla upgrade could cause all of that. Did the upgrade complete successfully? The error you're seeing is just a PHP 5.4+ deprecate notice. It shouldn't break anything. At any rate you can fix it with the below quickfix.




Blank page is generally a memory limit issue. Try increasing your php memory limit to at least 124mb and see if that resolves your problem.

Yes, the 2.5.22 upgrade completed successfully.

I have deprecate notices DISABLED globally, (error_reporting 4177) but it seems something in the code somewhere must be overriding that with an ERR_ALL

PHP memory limit is 128MB already.

I am loathe to start hacking PHP pages, because means I'll have to track and maintain the fixes
(And isn't that why we pay you extension developers the big bux?)

However, will try the quick fix on my Dev machine... will post back shortly

BTW, that quick fix was missing a semicolon at the second statement (I added it)

However, it still doesn't fix the CBsubs issue - same few pages are coming up blank.

Checking error log...

Be sure debug mode and maximum error reporting are both set in Joomla global configuration to ensure errors are outputting. Also if you can manage to get to CBSubs > History it could help as CBSubs history trys to log errors.

With debug mode and maximum error reporting enabled, I get (multiples deleted)

On my previously blank pages.

But I also get the same errors as above, (and then some!) on all of the working pages...

I can get the History page working - but there is nothing new in there, in the way of errors. ( last log entry was a month ago...) *see attachment
