Deprecated: Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() is deprecat

I've just set up my new laptop with my development xampp package, copied my existing working files over, set up the mysql database.

When I run the phpBB3 index.php I get the page, but the fonts aren't correct, all too large. I also get the following alert at the top of the page(s)

Deprecated: Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() is deprecated in /home/xxxx/websites/town/phpBB3/common.php on line 106

Line 106 is: set_magic_quotes_runtime(0)

The only difference to this and my previous installation on another machine is that I installed version 1.7.2 of xampp as opposed to 1.7.1

Any ideas?

edit: Just been into ACP and that doesn't display any tabs or links

Could you file a Bug report?

http://www.phpbb.com/bugs/

phpBB only checks for PHP 6 and greater, where the function does not exist at all, it should probably also catch this case.

Are you sure you run 3.0.6? Iam pretty sure that was fixed in 3.0.6

Paul: No I'm running 3.0.5 but as I said it runs ok with same files on my other laptop.

Ameek: Yes I will.

Well I finally got round to updating to 3.0.6, been busy.

However, the problem still exists.

Any ideas?

EDIT: Sorry can't seem to delete this post - just checked my bug tracker and it's been activated again. Thank you.

Just for info, I've reverted to xampp version 1.7.1 and everything is now OK.
