On every page, I encounter this set of errors:

Is there something that is replacing this or, for the time bring, how can I suppress these errors?

Which version do you use? There is not Encription library in the latest version anymore so I assume that you use an older version?

3

Version 1.5.2 on PHP 7.1 (Windows)

I can run InvoicePlane 1.5.2 without any problems with PHP 7.1.1.
Please delete the file application/libraries/Encryption.php and try again. This file shold not exist anymore in this version.

Found out what happened. I didn’t load the OpenSSL module when I installed PHP. Thank you.
