    [ubuntu_mate] Re: Anomalous browser rendering

    Thanks so much for your troubleshooting on this. My problem is that I don't really understand code, so for me it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. But now you've identified where the problem...

  9. [SOLVED] Re: PHP Warnings: Undefined variable & Unable to load dynamic library

  10. [SOLVED] Re: PHP Warnings: Undefined variable & Unable to load dynamic library

    Digging back into early correspondence with the guy who created the website, I'm reminded that there was a similar problem when PHP evolved between versions and register_globals was defaulted from...
  11. [SOLVED] Re: PHP Warnings: Undefined variable & Unable to load dynamic library

    Thanks for this. The only error log I can find is in /var/log/apache2 and that doesn't show anything problematic. Nor does the console tab in DT. However, your comment on the directory structure had...
  12. [SOLVED] Re: PHP Warnings: Undefined variable & Unable to load dynamic library

    Thanks very much for your help.

    I'm not too bothered about the suhosin issue if it's not critical to operation.

    I've edited the main.php file as you suggested and indeed the error messages in...
  13. [SOLVED] Re: Changing partition sizes because of low space on root

    It shouldn't be necessary to reinstall Ubuntu. An application called GParted, available through the Ubuntu Software app (which itself comes ready installed and is on your menu), is a very reliable...

    Attempting to update my partner's website, untouched since 2018 due to a stroke. First objective: a functioning local test site. I'm moderately tech confident but can't read code.

    I've fresh...
  15. Re: Unable to change permissions on an internal drive

    Thanks for responding, Yanek. I think you've identified the problem: the Media drive is ntfs, because it was originally shared with a Windows installation. I will investigate umask. Thanks.
  16. Unable to change permissions on an internal drive

    Running Ubuntu-Gnome 16.04 on an elderly machine. I have a separate internal hard drive - Media - which I use for data storage. I'm moving to a new machine and want to copy key folders (Photos,...

    All working again now - weird! Maybe a browser caching issue? - though I didn't consciously clear the cache.

  20. Re: troubleshooting localhost where only index.php will load

  21. Where to get help with a very small project needing knowledge of php?

    Thanks for the advice and for the links. The trouble is: we're running on ancient machines, which struggle to run a VM. I had thought about trying to install PHP 5 on my own desktop, following your...
