Joomla 1.6 problem

Question

I recently installed Joomla 1.6 on my XAMPP local server and i got this error message:

Strict Standards: Declaration of JButtonPopup::fetchId() should be compatible with that of JButton::fetchId() in J:\XAMPP\htdocs\joomla16\libraries\joomla\html\toolbar\button\popup.php on line 78

I tried with XAMPP 1.73 and 1.74 and I get the same message, and when I try to install any extension, I get the "can not create directory" message.

Please help me.

Answer 1

You need to change your php.ini file.

Look for:

error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT

And replace with:

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_STRICT

Look for:

display_errors = On

And replace with:

display_errors = Off

Make sure that you fine every instance it is possible for those to appear more than once in the file.

Answer 2

I installed Joomla 1.6 with Gantry framework on EasyPHP 5.3.6 and have the same problems. I could avoid these error messages setting the "display_errors" configuration to "Off" in EasyPHP configuration. It works for the moment.
