Cannot upgrade to PHP-version higher than 7.4

Maintaining my Dolibarr
1

Hi,

We have a Dolibarr instance running on an external linux server (webhosting). It concerns a Dolbarr installation that has been gradually upgraded over the years to the most recent version 20.0.2. The PHP version on the server was also set higher up to 7.4 as we went along.
The problem we are facing now is that if we go up to PHP 8.0 or higher Dolibarr seems to loose functionality (e.g. modules overview in settings is not visible). Could anyone advise us how to go about this and what we need to do to set the PHP version higher?

Many thanks in adance and best regards,
Bart

Hello,

Most probably is due to an external module not compatible with PHPV8.
The core it self is compatible

Hi Ksar,

Thank you for your reaction. The same thing occurred to me last evening and I tested the external modules one by one. It appeared that one of them was not compatible with >PHP 8.0. Removing it solved the problem.

Best regards,
Bart
