UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.threads 6 Version 6 Support Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - new install

[]Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed by value; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of create_form_check(). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file. However, future versions may not support this any longer. in /home2/fccuk/public_html/board/ubbt.inc.php on line 1911[/]

Having just made a new install in order to make a move to a different host, I get this message above. As a result, I'm unable to log in, even as an admin.

Can't find any solution yet... please help!

PHP version 4.3.9
MySQL version 4.0.25-standard
Apache version 1.3.33 (Unix)
Kernel version 2.4.25

Currently on http://209.197.244.224/board

I see the same error in a client's install, it's filling up the error log pretty quickly. The function in question is:


in ubbt.inc.php version 6.5.2

we are experiencing the same problem ... any suggestions?

use this:
function do_form_check(check, $value_hash) {

$doomed = create_form_check(&$value_hash); <<== ( line 1911 )

// print "!$doomed!$check!";
$return = $doomed == $check ? true : false;

return $return;
} // end do_form_check

I couldn't get the above to work but I did get this to work:

function do_form_check($check, $value_hash) {

$doomed = create_form_check($value_hash);

// print "!$doomed!$check!";

return $doomed == $check ? true : false;

} // end do_form_check

Sorry, I accidently deleted a "$" sign. My solution should be:

function do_form_check(check, $value_hash) {

$doomed = create_form_check(&$value_hash); <<== ( line 1911 )

// print "!$doomed!$check!";
$return = $doomed == $check ? true : false;

But yours is basically the same.
return $return;
} // end do_form_check

I think you still forgot the "$" sign on the top line before "check"? It gives me a parse error until I add the $ back in.

Is this correct?
