[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning

[Karado58]

Hello,

Portal page has warning above, plus nothing showing under Top Posters, or Statistics, search box misaligned, calendar larger fonts.
Please see attachments

Started getting this error, without warning and without any changes to the site at least 3 days prior.
Someone know what caused this; database corruption, site hacked?
Anyway to fix it, and keep it from happening again?

Thank you!

Hi
What version of pure PHP and phpBB are you running?
Are there already posts in your forum?
If not, please create two test posts.

Hello Kirk,

Weird, Statistics and Top Posters mysteriously are now showing data. Search box still misaligned and Calendar still large font. What's going on??!!

Hosting support, told me forum had been hacked, and needed to recreate from scratch.
Admin password was 25 mixed characters, since then, made it 30 mixed characters!

PHP version: 7.4.33
Board version: 3.3.10

Just created 2 test posts.

Forum url: https://www.dakotanative.com

I cannot reproduce this problem. The admin password has nothing to do with it.
If you deactivate the "Statistics" module, does the error message still appear?

[Karado58]

The reason I mentioned the secure password, was because hosting support said forum was hacked.

Deactivated Statistics. error goes away, forum looks normal!!

So it must be the DB?!

Please do not always reply with a full quote!

Deactivate the portal (incl. Delete data), delete the portal EXT from the server via FTP. Download the version from here, unzip it and upload it again and install the portal.

Hi Kirk,

Followed your exact steps for removal.
Same exact error, calendar fonts large size, search bar misaligned, Recent topics large font size. All same as before.

Statistics module is showing data.
