Just moved hosts, getting a php error...

[Raw Sugar]

I moved hosts this weekend. Nothing has changed, but now (sometimes) when I click on "Currently Active Users", I'm getting this error:
"Warning: Illegal string offset 'do' in [path]/includes/functions_online.php on line 456"

I've opened the file and the line in question is:

else if ($userinfo['values']['do'] == 'editfolders' OR $userinfo['action']['do'] == 'updatefolders')

I don't think this is a big deal because everything seems to be working correctly, but I just thought I'd ask. Any help/suggestions/comments are appreciated. Thank you!

I'm using 3.8.7.

wonder if your new host is running PHP 5.4? just a thought.

So, upgrade your vB to 3.8.8

I feel like I should have known that...

Okay, I will work on doing that. Thanks!

vbulletin 3.8.9 supports php 5.4/5.5.
i would recommend 3.8.9.
vbulletin 3.8.9 is basically 3.8.8 with PHP 5.5 fixes. this should fix all your issues.

ShawneyJ...

I've just downloaded the 3.8.9 Beta 3 files and uploaded them. Updated the config file to have the correct database information in it.

When it go to forumurl.com/install/upgrade.php I get this:

Warning: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function.

My host said there must be errors in those files on those lines, but they weren't able to help me.

Luckily my board seems to be working just fine even though it's in a strange limbo. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Your webhost hasn't properly set the timezone on the php configuration. Its a problem with their configuration

The host is insisting it is something in the install files that I can fix.
