[Resolved] MySQL & PHP 7


Full Board URL: http://forum.3ree.ml/
XMB Version: 1.9.11

Hi XMB Community,

I'm now running XMB Forum for my support forums, however have noticed that it does only support the MySQL extension (which was removed in PHP 7) and not the updated MySQLi extension. I did noticed someone here made an "m2.php" which is supporting MySQLi, but it didn't work for me.

It's not a simple case of "add an i after mysql" because some functions don't exist in MySQLi or have been renamed/changed syntax and I am currently not knowing PHP or other programming languages, so will likely break something.

I hope a patched MySQLi database executions file can be released some time, I noticed this in the bug tracker that it was planned for 1.9.11.14, but has anything been done? ^^

Thanks!

That mysqli port won't work out of the blue. There is some errors/typos in it. I've tested it. Fixed some, but haven't got it actually working.:mad:
To be honest, I doubt that bugless functionality is even possible, unless you rewrite the core files and queries manually whenever there is an issue.

I have made a mysqli.php port that is working (I think). At least it runs on my dev server at home with php 7.0.22

If you guys are interested in the files please let me know.

Would you mind sharing it in here as an attachment for everyone that needs it or uploading your whole modified XMB sources to github? That would be way easier and time saving, than just replying to bunch of emails.;)
