Errors with vB

[Andrew]

I'm getting this set of errors now whenever I try to acces my forum :

Warning: Constants may only evaluate to scalar values in /home/crosshai/public_html/forum/includes/init.php on line 752

My only thought is my host upgrade the PHP due to the recent security discoveries. On the vB.com site though it says that Zend has to be upgraded as well - Could that be the culprit to this ? My site worked fine like 3 hours ago and now it's all messed up - My IPB site is also acting up as well but that's irrelelvant.

Have you made any modifcations to init.php, like adding new bitfields for permissions?

Also what php version are you on now? And what version where you on before the upgrade?

My init.php is completely unmodified on this installation - The only hack I have installed is teh vBa CMPS.

As for the PHP version - My server is currently running 4.3.10 which it wasn't earlier today.

I am getting the same error:

Everything was working fine, and then all of a sudden it started happening a few minutes ago. It is a fresh install of VBulletin, and was working fine for 2 days or so. I have installed it and other forum software elsewhere with no problems. I do not know if the server changed php versions on me.

It was the php version. I called my server and they had just "upgraded" to that version when the problem started, so now they are back to the older version and all is well.

Strange. We upgraded to php 4.3.10 last night and all is running ok.

Alright - Got an e-mail from my host this morning. Seem like they hadn't upgraded to the latest version of Zend yet which is what was giving me all the errors. Just checked and everything is running fine now with the new PHP version.

That post wasn't there last night when I was having my issues - Doesn't matter though cause I told my host to upgrade Zend and it fixed it.

My problem was in fact due to an incompatibility between an out of date version of Zend Optimizer and PHP 4.3.10, and after my server upgraded to the latest version of Zend the problem was fixed.
