Strict Standards: Creating default object from empty value

[Amit05]

Hi there,
I just installed testlink version 1.8. After installation, when I try to login, I bump into the error message as below:
"Strict Standards: Creating default object from empty value in /opt/lampp/htdocs/testlink/cfg/const.inc.php on line 615"

The page shows nothing else but this. Could you please help.

Regards.

Finally I could resolve the issue by adding following line at the beginning of the file.

In the file, on 31st line, add the following :
ini_set('error_reporting',E_ALL);

Basically, we are suppressing the warnings that php is giving. This does not solve the root cause of the issue which is explained @http://www.trash-factor.com/content/php ... mpty-value as below :

PHP Error: Creating default object from empty value

PHP 5 introduces the E_STRICT error reporting constant. The PHP manual states "Enable to have PHP suggest changes to your code which will ensure the best interoperability and forward compatibility of your code.". Thus it's recommendable to enable strict PHP errors.
About strict mode (E_STRICT)

Enabling the strict mode is done via the INI file (php.ini) or via code during runtime:

ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL | E_STRICT);

The above code sets error_reporting to E_ALL and E_STRICT, because E_STRICT is not part of the E_ALL constant.

Disabling the strict mode works vice versa:

ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);

"Creating default object from empty value"

This error tells you your code instantiated a default object (of type stdClass) implicitely. The referenced part of your code most likely looks like

$object->foo = 'bar';

PHP is strict and doesn't accept this, because you didn't create the $object explicitely! The solution to this is rather simple: add the explicit instantiation and you're done! The code should look like:

$object = new stdClass(); // instantiate $object explicitely
$object->foo = 'bar'; // now it's save to do this!


Hope this helps someone. Unfortunately, the Google also failed to provide any pointers and I eventually spent 2 days trying to figure out the solution. Finally, a friend helped me out.

very bad practice post on TWO areas of forum, you are not getting more help this way, but risking that your user will be banned
