dotproject installation issues

deprecated error level issues after installation of the dotproject site

Under PHP 5.x, assigning a return value by reference is the default behavior. Updating the php.ini file will not solve the problem as dotproject overrides the php.ini settings internally. To resolve this issue edit the base.php file. It is located in the root directory for dodproject. Find the line:

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

replace it with

error_reporting(E_COMPILE_ERROR|E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR|E_ERROR_E_CORE_ERROR);

No need to restart.

also add these lines in index.php of your site and phpinfo.php to remove any existing deprecated errors being reported

error_reporting(E_ALL & !E_DEPRECATED);
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED);
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_DEPRECATED);
