I have installed openemr on a linux server and receive this error upon startup.  Can I ignore these errors? is there a repair?  I have updated the php.ini.

Presumably you are using 3.2? The HEAD of 4.0 should no longer have those messages.
Yes, you can ignore the errors.  If you want to eliminate them from your log you can further update your php.ini with the following line:

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_NOTICE

Yes I am using 3.2.  what do you mean the HEAD of 4.0 should no longer have those messages.  should I upgrade?

If your only concern is those notifications, then I don’t think it makes sense for you to upgrade at this time.  HEAD simply refers to the most recent updates in the git repository.

I made the change in my php.ini file and it did not change  the error messages.  Could my php.ini file be in the wrong folder.  My server is on Godaddy, and I have it in my root directory.

Create a script in your web directory containing this line:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

… call it something like info.php.  Then run it with your browser.  It will tell you all kinds of stuff including the location of your php.ini.

it says that my php.ini file is located /web/conf/php5.ini, but I have no file called “web” on my server.  I even used a terminal connection to view sub directories.

You should check with GoDaddy.com support about how to change php settings, if that’s even possible to do in your hosted environment.

I believe  that php.ini setting can be overidden in your code, you may need to do a customization around that.   Or find a host that you have more control over.

Godaddy is reeeeeaaaally bad.  Try using bluehost if you want total control, i.e. if you are looking in that category of hosting.

Samsalas:  I am looking at using openemr in my surgical practice.  Would you mind telling me a little about your setup, and how it is working?  TIA

Thanks everyone for your help.  I figured out that I am running php5 therefore my php initialization file needed to be php5.ini
problem solved.
