PHP 7 with phpmyadmin gives lots of Deprecation Notices

Question

I have Ubuntu 16.04 LTS running with PHP7 and phpmyadmin installed. However, I get a lot of deprecation notices like:

Depre         


        

Answer 1

The way I fixed this problem was by following the askubuntu instructions at depreciation notice error in phpmyadmin with 16.04. It involves changing three lines in /usr/share/php/php-gettext/streams.php and one line in /usr/share/php/php-gettext/gettext.php.

From that link, this are the changes you need to do (if you have ubuntu 16.04):

sudo nano /usr/share/php/php-gettext/streams.php

Line 48 StringReader Error.

Go to Line 52 and change

function StringReader ($str='') {

TO

function __construct($str='') {

Line 84 FileReader Error

Go to Line 90 and change

function FileReader($filename) {

to

function __construct($filename) {

Line 145 CacheFileReader error

Go to Line 146 and change

function CachedFileReader($filename) {

to

function __construct($filename) {

Using sudo nano /usr/share/php/php-gettext/gettext.php.

Line 36 gettext_reader { error

I think you get the gist now, go to line 101 and change

function gettext_reader($Reader, $enable_cache = true) {

To

function __construct($Reader, $enable_cache = true) {
