On my server, IIS 8.5, if I use anything after PHP 7.1.7 (even 7.1.13), the text on the sticker is missing.
Any ideas?

Post the link to your sticker that is not working

It's not just one sticker - its all of them. On the setup.php page all of them are blank.
There is nothing in the PHP errors log.

Heres one:

Do you have access to your error log? Im afraid we need that your server hides the errors

Yes I have root.
What do you want me to do?

if the text is not displaying there should be some error, something must have gone wrong, so it should be in the error log

Nope nothing is present. The error log is working properly, I've verified it's recording with a purposeful error script.
It's set to record E_ALL.

So 7.1.8 does not work?
That really makes no sense, nothing was deprecated in v7.1.8

http://php.net/ChangeLog-7.php#7.1.8

Ill try 7.1.8 later and let you know. But for right now 7.1.13 and 7.2.1 do not work.
Im going to backtrack it to 7.1.7 for now.

OK I've run through each version individually, it stops working after 7.1.11. Everything up to that it works, so 7.1.12 and later it's broken.

Jacym you see above?

I see, but I didnt have time to look at this, the problem is that my provider does not offer any higher version than I already have, which is 7.1.5 so I have no way to try to do something until Im able to upgrade too, for me it works and I cant fix something that is already working if you see what I mean.

If you want to PM me, I'll be glad to give you full access to my server for testing.

This just makes absolutely no sense, have a look....

changelog for the version where it stops working:
http://php.net/ChangeLog-7.php#7.1.12

Only bug fixes...

On PHP 7.1.6. everything works without any problems...

Jachym,

Don't know what to tell you - I did read the changelog. It breaks at 7.1.12 and later and all 7.2 versions on IIS and I've verified it. Anything before 7.1.12 it works fine. It can't be my machine because I can go back or forth different versions before that one and it works fine, if it was me it would be all the time.

As a .NET developer I've seen many times where bugfixes change something in the code that either was not documented before or internally breaks the way the function works based on the way your using it (strangely enough). Keep in mind Bugfixes have broken Windows features before too as well as others apps LOL.

This is a problem as a developer when you don't have the latest version to test on...that's why I'm offering root access to do testing. Once ISPs start upgrading your going to hear more complaints, so best to get ahead of the problem. I know alot of them dont upgrade PHP very often unless it's a security release.

mpca -
Um, read the thread - I said it stops working AFTER 7.1.7, which we know is now 7.1.11 - I was using 7.1.7, so of course it works under 7.1.6!

My provider is quite quick at upgrading, so I will upgrade as soon as it is available and then hopefully be able to find the issue.
