I’m trying to install V1.5 on my ubuntu server running Apache2 with PHP V8.1.2. I’m getting this following errors when I first open up and run the index.php file on the server:

Is there something I am missing in installation? it seems that there are deprecated calls happening with the third party MX.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

Welcome.
I had to change the title a bit, because more users will run into this problem.

Invoiceplane version 1.5 is not compatible with PHP 8.1.
Try the Beta of version 1.6.

3

Is it the same procedure to install 1.6 as it is 1.5? does it use the same PHP plugin etc?

Thank you in advance.

I don’t understand the question.
For InvoicePlane v1.6 you just copy the files from the .zip on the site or on github over the files of version 1.5.
After that you need to go to /setup to upgrade the database.

Is that what you meant?

There are some extra things that you need to do after that though.

Hopefully this weekend we’ll release the real 1.6 and it will show some documentation with it on the site.

Either docs.invoiceplane.com or wiki.invoiceplane.com will have that documentation

5

That’s what I meant.
Thank you!

Perfect!
So, when you go from 1.5 to 1.6 there are a couple of extra steps.
Keep an eye on the documentation site, right before you make your move.

When you run into anything, just howler.
We’re here and we’re also on slack, to help.
