Hi,<br>
SiteAnalyzer didn't bring me foreward; only the advice to update
counter.php...<br>
<br>
I checked some other issues -> no result! Now I made the
following: I made a backup of my broken site, deleted all pmwiki
files on the server and installed the current pmwiki2.2.113 to the
server - then I copied the upload and wiki.d archives from my backup
to the new installation files on the server and after some file
updates everything works fine now ;-)!<br>
<br>
Thanks for your support - now I'm really familiar with pmwiki's
entrails...<br>
<br>
Regards, Michael<br>

Thanks, Simon,<br>
I will test that. Meanwhile, as a workaround, I moved with my site
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"
href="http://www.miclangschach.de/index.php"
moz-do-not-send="true">www.miclangschach.de/index.php</a> to a
different provider, where I had the choice to go back to PHP5.3.29
- and voilá, everything is working: <a

(under PMWiki 2.2.14, but this will be changed ;-)) - Regards,

I had to resurrect a pmwiki when I updated from PHP 5.6
to PHP 7.2 on<br>
RHEL. The problems were entirely related to plugins or
skins. Many<br>
required updating, but many of them in use were no
longer currently<br>
maintained, so it ended up that they had to be fixed or
removed. It<br>
wasn't easy to remove them, so fixing became the best
option, and the<br>
patched files were uploaded to the relevant plugin pages
on the<br>
PMWiki project wiki.<br>
<br>
There is no information given about what plugins or
skins might have<br>
been in use, etc. It seems unlikely for help to be
possible with so<br>
little effort given to providing information.<br>
<br>
Was a backup of the wiki made at any time? Providers
like Softaculous<br>
offer backups being made before updates. Even if not
made before an<br>
update, a backup made after would potentially allow for
dropping<br>
the files on a local system or VM to debug if the web
host does<br>
not allow shell access. Did you ask for shell access?<br>
<br>
Here are brief notes about the site I fixed:<br>
<br>
KB: 2018/12:<br>
<br>
The pmwiki site broke completely after upgrading
from PHP 5.6 to PHP 7.2.<br>
The breakage appeared to be exclusively due to
“Warning: preg_replace(): The<br>
/e modifier is no longer supported” issues.<br>
<br>
To address the issues, first, the site was
upgraded to: pmwiki-2.2.110<br>
<br>
The triad skin was updated to the newest
available at the time of the repair.<br>
<br>
Numerous cookbook files were either upgraded
from the pmwiki site, or were<br>
locally patched. In most cases, locally patched
files were uploaded to the<br>
pmwiki site (<a
href="https://pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/</a>)
pages pertinent to the files<br>
that were edits, though in two cases, the pmwiki
recipe pages were themselves<br>
affected by the preg_replace error, and changes
could not be shared at the<br>
time they were made. The list of cookbook's
modified:<br>

Naturally, your site will not be identical, but if you
have things in the<br>
cookbook folder, probably they should be checked first
and upgraded or<br>
edited as needed. When looking for upgrades, don't just
download the<br>
plugin/skin tarball. Many plugins have individual files
posted when a<br>
maintainer is not actively maintaining them.<br>
<br>
Other places for files that needed fixing were pub/*
folders associated<br>
with plugins or skins, though for me, only handytoc put
files there<br>
that needed changing.<br>
<br>
You should probably enabled diagnostics by uncommenting
a line in the<br>
local/config.php file:<br>
<br>
# $EnableDiag = 1; # enable remote diagnostics<br>
<br>
There were only a few types of changes that had to be
made. Provided that<br>
they turn out to be relevant, you could also look at how
I changed the<br>
aforementioned files by examining what was uploaded to
the plugin page<br>
and comparing it to the original published file.<br>
<br>
Good luck. Without more facts, actual help is hard to
give.<br>
