Dear Valued Clients,
We have recently upgraded PHP version of the following servers from 5.3 to 5.4.32 for security reasons. 5.3 is already end-of-life and no longer supported.
LAX01
LAX02
FMT03
Some websites may post error messages such as "Strict Standards: Non-static method..." and mostly Joomla installations. Reason is that, they are using very old versions of the said application. The instant fix is creating a custom php.ini file inside public_html or from where Joomla files are stored and also inside the administrator folder to manage the Joomla dashboard. Then, inserting the following values below. Lastly, saving the file.
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
display_errors = Off
We urge everyone to upgrade to the latest versions of their application as they contain security updates, avoiding hackers from defacing your website.
Another issue is "Call to undefined function session_is_registered()". session_register function has been removed in PHP 5.4. Here is the fix -
