PHP error on posting

#1

Post by Scott B. »

I've been seeing this error on posting. Posts are successful, but this is where I end up.

Code: Select all

[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions_messenger.php on line 506: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable
[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions.php on line 1836: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [ROOT]/includes/functions.php:3268)

Happens every time I post. There is another thread on this, but I don’t think anyone ever addressed it.

It’s a forum error. I don’t think we can do anything about it.

It may be browser specific as I made my reply above from my phone using Chrome and didn't get an error.

But I do with my Mac using Chrome.

I don't know if it is a different Chrome, but I use Chrome on my PC and still get the message. For some reason it has not happened yet today. It is sporadic.

It seems to have cleared up for me. I just now posted something in another thread, and it didn’t happen this time.

Edited to add:
Oops! Spoken too soon...... Safari, on an iPad Pro.....

.....and it didn’t happen on adding the above edit.

This was happening on MS Edge browser, which used to works w/o generating the error. Let me post this and see if it's cleared up.

Well that was odd. Lemme try again.

ETA: OK! The PHP mode didn't happen, but it went to preview mode. Now it's working normally (for me).

Never any problem with Preview or Edit. Only Submit.

I’ve noticed the same thing......and PHP ERROR in 3....2....1....

Edit 1:
Yep, I was right, and this time it should be Ok.

Edit 2:
Yep, it was OK. So editing a post does not produce an error. Previewing your post does not produce an error. Submitting a new post produces the error.
