You need to change your PHP preferences in the php.ini file.

See:  
[https://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ#What\_are\_the\_correct\_PHP\_settings\_.28can\_be\_found\_in\_the\_php.ini\_file.29.3F](https://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ#What_are_the_correct_PHP_settings_.28can_be_found_in_the_php.ini_file.29.3F)

You need to change error reporting to:  
error\_reporting = E\_ALL & ~E\_NOTICE & ~E\_STRICT & ~E\_DEPRECATED

The symbol “~” means “NOT”. So, the above line means Notices and deprecated messages will not be displayed.
