Fatal error: Call to undefined function: is_null()

[web-connected]

Receiving error when trying to update order status when HTML email is enabled. Uncheck "Notify Customer" or disable HTML emails and everything works fine. Any have any ideas... I did see one post about checking admin/includes/configure.php. All of my information is correct and has been double checked.

 

Error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: is_null() in /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/catalog/admin/includes/classes/email.php on line 363

 

configure.php "Note my server is a virtual server so it uses some symlinks":

Any help would be great

The function is_null() was introduced in PHP at version 4.0.4. So my educated guess is that you are using a version of PHP that is older as 4.0.4.

 

A wrapper function to handle this situation was added a while ago. So here are your possibilities:

 

1. Update PHP

2. Update osCommerce

Thank you for your quick insight. It appears that the hosting company I have been working with is still running 4.0 for some reason. Kind of makes me wonder what else is outdated on the server.....Hmmmmm.

 

Hopefully they will upgrade and life will be good.

 

:wink:

 

Cheers,

That makes me shiver. 4.0.0 has some serious security flaws and should not be used. If your ISP hasn't upgraded yet I would look for someone more reliable ;-)
