Deprecated value in joomlamodulesmod_virtuemart_latestprod...

**GK User** Wed Mar 16, 2011 12:26 am

Hi again,

I installed the template locally, somehow, when I click the "VirtueMart Module" [coffee machines, air conditioners, etc) on the front page, I receive a message on the left saying "Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in C:xampphtdocsjoomlamodulesmod_virtuemart_latestprodmod_virtuemart_latestprod.php on line 42"

Anyone knows why? I attached a picture for you to check and have an idea about it.

Your help is appreciated a lot. Thanks

Most common deprecated errors was with xamp / wamp and using php 5.3+ with joomla...

Follow below list
1 - Test with joomla v1.5.24 or
2 - Downgrade your php version to 5.2x ( Check xampp community ) or
3 - Disable deprecated error output in php.ini

edit your php.ini to disable error reporting for deprecated commands

1. open [xampp dir]/php/php.ini
2. Search for "error_reporting" without quotes. Beware there might be multiple error_reporting in the file look for the last one.
Change from

Code: Select all: error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT

to this:

Code: Select all: error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED

3. restart xampp
