Undefined variable errors after install of php on local machine

[skdzines]

Hello All,

I have recently installed Apache2, MySQL, PHP, phpMyAdmin and Zend Optimizer on my local machine. I am trying to mimic the configuration of my Web Hosts set up. I have copied all of my files of a working web site to run on my newly configured server and I now get a bunch of undefined variable errors. Like I said, this whole site works exactly the way it should on my Hosts server. One of the errors I am receiving is this:

Notice: Undefined variable: form in C:\Server\Apache2\htdocs\ryanandryan\admin\editPhotos.php on line 12

The variable: form is set once the submit button is clicked by a hidden field.

Is there something I need to change in the php.ini file or httpd.conf file in order for it to not get these errors?

Thanks in advance

Look at your php.ini. Its probably well commented?

mine:
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

Which i think is not correct because E_NOTICE shows up anyway. 😕

I use error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE ) or call ini_set() in my scripts to control what happens, rather than rely on php.ini settings; that way my code should do what I want regards of server its on.

Thanks jazz snob. I apparently missed that part when comparing the two .ini files. My host uses error_reporting = E_COMPILE_ERROR|E_CORE_ERROR so I used that and all works. Thanks for your help.
