Cakephp 2.10.13 with PHP 7.2 CLI

Need Help
1

As part of my effort to get to V3 with PHP 7.2, I decided a first step would be to get my existing 2.10.13 app running on PHP 7.2.

I had to change a few things but the app runs fine now on my Windows 10/xampp test system. I installed it on the live shared cpanel system and the web stuff runs fine.

However I experience a problem with code running via cli as a cron. Any console php code fails. Here is an example of what I get:-

Welcome to CakePHP v2.10.13 Console

App : app

Path: /home/probusgi/public_html/ProbusLive/app/

Warning Error: ini_set(): Headers already sent. You cannot change the session moduleā€™s ini settings at this time in [/home/probusgi/public_html/ProbusLive/lib/Cake/Model/Datasource/CakeSession.php, line 581]

#16 /home/probusgi/public_html/ProbusLive/lib/Cake/Console/cake.php(53): ShellDispatcher::run(Array)

#17 {main}

To try and find out where the header output occurs I tried inserting a ā€œini_set(ā€˜session.use_cookiesā€™,0)ā€ statement at various points in the code indicated by the stack trace. This code from lib/Cake/Console/ShellDispatcher.php lines 64-67 seems significant.

public static function run($argv) {

$dispatcher = new ShellDispatcher($argv);

return $dispatcher->_stop($dispatcher->dispatch() === false ? 1 : 0);

}

If I insert the ini_set before the $dispatcher = new ShellDispatcher($argv); line the error is reported as above. However with the ini_set inserted after that line the error is reported at that line. Ie itā€™s suggesting the $dispatcher = new ShellDispatcher($argv); is causing headers to be sent to the console.

As I said it works on my wimdows setup but fails on cpanel.

It looks like a bug to be, but can anyone else throw any light on this please?

Hi, I ran into this issue as wellā€¦I found a work around by adding ob_start() to the cake.php file.

Add this in your cake.php file located at app/Console/cake.php

// Add this line to fix bake errors for ini_set
ob_start();
