SUHOSIN - Use of eval is forbidden

[Chris73]

Just upgrade your php via the account management panel. You currently have the basic php version.

I'm getting the same thing with phpBB3.
I have asked for, and got confirmation that the update to "intermediate" has been processed and now in place, but still getting the message.

Fatal error: SUHOSIN - Use of eval is forbidden by configuration in /home/dwd2000/public_html/friends-alumni.com/forums/includes/functions_module.php(32 : eval()'d code on line 328

I have 200 or more forums set up, and the thought of re-installing phpBB3 is not on the top of my favorite things to do list, especially if I'm going to have the same problem after. I can't backup the the database, because I can't get into the admin to do it, unless there is a way that re-installing phpBB3 won't write over the original database.

I have deleted all the board cookies, hoping that it might have been something simple, like a cache problem after the upgrade, but to no avail.

Is it possible that the upgrade to intermediate was set for dwd2000.x10hosting.com, and not carried down to my domain directory (friends-alumni.com) within it?

Does the server have to reboot for the changes to take effect? I don't mind waiting, if it's something simple like that.

I know the problem will get fixed. I'm just letting you know what I've done on my end and throwing some ideas out.

The server doesn't have to be rebooted for the changes to take effect. If it did, downtime would be VERY often, especially if there are a lot of users all changing on a particular server. Otherwise, if you do want to back up your database, just go to MySQL Databases in cPanel or go into phpMyAdmin and download a database backup for your forum. As for reinstalling phpBB3, I believe that there is a configuration file you can change the settings to to point them to your database settings, or some sort oif script that will change it for you, so that way you won't need to start from scratch.

Otherwise, if you just signed up for Intermediate PHP, you'll need to wait about a day or two at most for it to take effect, as if you're getting eval errors, it's most likely that your account hasn't been updated yet. If it has been activacted already, you'll either need to see what the staff can do for you to fix the problem, or you'll need to "Fix" the broken forum problems. Right now though, it seems to be an error with either only having the Basic PHP backage enabled on yoru account/Intermediate PHP hasn't been fully applied yet, or there is a configuration issue.

Hope my heap of information helps you.

Thanks for the database info. I didn't think of that.
As for the upgrade, it says it is in place. If it's just a matter of waiting a little longer, then I will. That's not a problem. I won't post about it again, until Thursday, unless it's working before. I have included a copy of my PHP version to let you know why I'm confused.

Create your own threads, guys! It is hard to help multiple people within the same thread, things get disorganized and confusing.
