PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method

Scriptcase 8 Discussion
#1

Hi

I’m migrating code to a new server and installed a newer version of Debian. I get an error in Apache stating that there is a call to an undefined method. Line 1664 of the specific code looks as follows:

$inicial_form_schedule->contr_form_schedule->controle();

The only difference I can see between the two systems is that php is now on version 5.6.20-0 where it previously was 5.4.45-0. Apache changed from version 2.2.22 to 2.4.10.

Here is die error I see in the logs:
[Wed May 04 22:35:17.222853 2016] [:error] [pid 523] [client 192.168.0.26:55428] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method form_schedule_form::controle() in /var/www/html/form_schedule/index.php on line 1664, referer: http://192.168.0.11/menu2/menu2_form_php.php?sc_item_menu=item_4&sc_apl_menu=form_schedule&sc_apl_link=%2F&sc_usa_grupo=

I think the issue is the PHP version that might not be supported. What version of PHP is supported?

I don’t think it’s a php version issue. Did you generat the fulll set of applications? If the other apps work well you could consider rebuilding this single module.

To make sure it is not a rebuilding or a production setup issue I deleted the entire /var/ww/html directory on both systems (Wheezy and Jessie) and re-deployed all the applications (including libraries, CSS, etc.) from the development environment. After configuring the production environments the Wheezy platform worked while I received the same errors on Jessie. I also notices that I also get “PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘else’ (T_ELSE)” errors in the Apache log file. It seems that the PHP code generated by ScriptCase is is not parsed correctly on Jessie.

I also saw that my ScriptCase development environment (on Windows) uses PHP 5.6 (like Jessie), so I’m not really sure what the issue is. I will look into it later tonight.

Unfortunately due to hardware compatibility issues (not part of the ScriptCase problem) I need to use Jessie. I don’'t really want to compile PHP 5.4 manually on Jessie since it can cause other package issues.

I found an old thread here:

I did not have time to look at the issue again until this morning. It turns out that in php5.6 the “short_open_tag” if Off by default and not On any more.
