Horde using deprecated function?

Hi.
After fiddling around with postfix settings I thought today I should try Horde out for the first time. I was a bit surprised by the amount of mail I get. Every fifth minute I get a mail from Cron Daemon saying
Code: Select all
PHP Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /usr/share/horde3/lib/Horde/Perms/sql.php on line 83
PHP Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /usr/share/horde3/lib/Horde/Perms/sql.php on line 116
PHP Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /usr/share/horde3/lib/Horde/Perms/sql.php on line 153
PHP Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /usr/share/horde3/lib/Horde/Prefs.php on line 847
(it continues further in the same fashion). Did I do something wrong here or what's happening?
/Daniel
edit: I actually found that this is caused by the first line in /etc/cron.d/bubba-horde. Commented out the line to make it shut up. Bit of a workaround, but it gives me less mail to delete tomorrow...

Hi,
Instead of commenting out the whole line, you could try redirecting the output of the command to /dev/null. That should prevent the mail from being sent.
A downside is you will not be notified of any other (perhaps bigger) problem if they occur.

Feels like just another workaround. I guess the best thing would be if Horde wouldn't use deprecated stuff. Anyone knows how I get php to at least stop complaining about it?

True, with the difference that my workaround actually do some work

In the file /etc/cron.d/bubba-horde, the last line ends with
Put the same thing after the first line (ie the first line that actually does something) so it looks like this:
Code: Select all
*/5 * * * * root test -x /usr/bin/php && /usr/bin/php /usr/share/horde3/scripts/alarms.php > /dev/null 2>&1
That should make the warnings go to the black hole instead of to your mail box.

I just receive my B3, but man this bug is a pain. My guess is everyones mailqueue is running into 10000s mails by now because of this crap. Thanks for the quickfix

I ran into this bug today and then did some googleing around and came up with:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=601186
It appears it is a known Horde issue and not an Excito one ... The solution that they have is to suppress the deprecated warnings, and also the strict warnings by updating:
/etc/horde/horde3/conf.php
and changing line 6 from:
$conf['debug_level'] = E_ALL;
to
$conf['debug_level'] = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT;
