Hi guys Our server is not running 

Apache 2.4, PHP 5.6, and PHP 7.0

But after server upgrade to php7 mahara has not worked

http://myschoolteacher.com.au

I get header errors

I reloaded all the files up manually and upgraded db?

Any ideas?

Thank you

Hi Ben

Pretty sure there are PHP features no longer available in PHP v7 that Mahara requires to run. You might find you really can't go past V5.6

See what others have to say though.

Thanks Keith!

I have installed php5.6 and allocated to that cpanel account

Now I get

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 262144 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 49152 bytes) in /home/myschool/public_html/init.php on line 141

I have checked the Php.INI at the server and account and both allow enought memory...

Could this be a mysql issue?

 Thanks again...

Hi Ben

Is someone hosting this for you and is it dedicated or shared?

It's a shared account that was functioning.

I have php7 and 5.6 installed. Running MariaDB 10.0

Hi Ben

Can you show me the PHP.ini line for your memory size please. Just copy and paste it here.

Hi Ben

The error: Allowed memory size of 262144 bytes exhausted

262144 bytes is less than 1 MB and that won't be enough to run Mahara

Normally PHP allows a memory limit greater than that

My setup (using Mahara 16.10.1 and PHP7) has PHP memory limit set to the default 128MB:

 memory_limit = 128M 

Note: ends in M and not MB

See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16175153/allowed-memory-size-of-262144-bytes-exhausted-tried-to-allocate-24576-bytes for more help diagnosing why your memory limit is so low.

Yes I am thinking this incorrectly set or set too small.

Hi Keith,

Mahara 16.10 does support PHP 7.0. :-)

Hi Kristina

Thanks for the clarification. I was unsure as I did have some issue with PHP 7 and it went away when I went back to 5.6. 

I didn't note the issues though. :(
