Fatal error with version 1.8.6 after installation

[suvel]

Hello all,

After correct installation (had to add tables manually) I get a fatal error when I try to access Phoca at the backend.
When I click on categories I get the error:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in ........\administrator\components\com_phocagallery\views\phocagallerycs\view.html.php on line 71

When I click on Gallery I get the error:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in .....\administrator\components\com_phocagallery\views\phocagallerys\view.html.php on line 143

Clicking on Themes works.

Server settings host:
Windows server NT NT10 5.2 build 3790
PHP version: 5.0.5 (safe mode ON)
MySQL version: 5.0.27
Joomla version: 1.5.3 legacy mode

I can't find what I'm doing wrong. I have other websites where Phoca is running ok and I like this component so does somebody knows what's wrong so I can use this component agian.

Thanks

Hi, this should be a PHP bug, which you can solve with reinstalling the PHP version...

OK, Thanks. I will contact my host to ask them to check this. Could it be also the PHP version 5.0.5? Which PHP version is preffered for using Phoca?

There is no prefered PHP version, both are working 4.4 -> 5 ... but the 5.0.5 contains this bug,so try to change it e.g. to 5.1.6, 5.2.x ....
