New setup giving lots of errors

Support
1

Situation
I just downloaded and installed on a CentOS 7 system and am getting a lot of errors in the http log. The setup ran on the first access and now I am logged in as the admin. I suspect that this is due to some global error either in PHP or Apache setup. Perhaps a missing module. I am pasting excerpt from the log below.

OpenEMR Version
I’m using OpenEMR version 6.0.0

Browser:
I’m using: Chrome

Operating System
I’m using: CentOS 7

hi @Hussain , notices can be turned off and most warnings have been addressed in 6.1.0 which is the next release slated for late this winter/early spring.

Hi Stephen

The notices are not just informational. Looking at the source mentioned in the lines, I see these are programming issues.

This is effecting usability. e.g. From the primary opening screen, if I search for a patient and then click on “New patient”, I get returned to the opening screen instead of being able to add a new record.

hi @Hussain , sorry about that, you have to adjust your php settings.

Hi @stephenwaite I rechecked php.ini twice and the settings are already as per the link you mentioned.

hi @Hussain , you can make sure via phpinfo() that the php.ini file that is in use on the server is one that is edited and then restart apache.
