PHP 8.1.0 gives errors on attempted installation. PHP 7.4.26 seems to work OK. Is this the highest version of PHP which can be used with Couch?

[KK]

Could you please confirm if the error occurs using the latest v2.3 version?

If I can download and install 2.3 I'll give it a try.

The particular error that you reported above is actually just a 'notice' that can be ignored (actually should have been ignored but perhaps some specific configuration of your server is preventing that from happening).

Could you please try placing the following (at the end) in 'couch/config.php' file? -

Code: Select all

ini_set('display_errors', 0); 
error_reporting(0);

Does this help? Please let me know.

Just about to call it a day. Will have a look tomorrow.

That seems to solve the problem fine. No errors reported and all appears to be working as expected. Have only done a brief check but if anything crops up I'll post a message.

Thanks KK - on the ball as always!
