or you may be able to do it with a php.ini file if your hosting company allows it. (I'm assuming you're on a shared hosting account)

Simply add (or create a php.ini file in notepad with the following in)

magic_quotes_gpc = On

into your php.ini file in the root of the script.

I have the same problem.

I tried all the suggestions, but none would work, my hosting company does not support Magic Quotes on. Can I make it so Dolphin does not need it?

There is only one answer, no sorry.. look for a host who support dolphin is the best advise I can give.

I-2nd-That! -> Server Environment is CRITICAL to Dolphin's Loading and Performing properly! ALWAYs review TRAC^ Dolphin Pre-Install Doc before even attempting to install Dolphin. Check with your HOST to ENSURE they are configured properly, BEFORE installing. A quick , simple email could save you DAYs,Weeks,Months of frustration!

Ok kids, I added the code to my php.ini file...placed it in root directory as well as directory where Dolphin 7 B2 is residing...no cigar. Still getting the error. Running other Dolphin versions on my server just fine.

Here is what the php.ini has in it:

-

post_max_size = 100M
upload_max_filesize = 100M
max_execution_time = 2000
memory_limit = 128M
register_globals = Off
output_buffering = on
max_input_time = 2000
mysql.connect_timeout = 600
default_socket_timeout = 600
magic_quotes_gpc = On

If you are running Apache under Linux then you will need to restart apache to have the changes in php.ini take effect.

Try restaring it.

I've never had to do that before...

OK, so if your php.ini file isn't making the magic_quotes ON....this is what you should do...(I DID NOT have to re-start Apache).

-

The normal method is to use a .htaccess file to change the PHP settings via the php_flag directive:

php_flag magic_quotes_gpc on

Just create the file .htaccess with the above contents in the directory where you are going to install the application (or in the root of the domain if you want it to take affect over the whole domain). To switch if off, either change on to off or remove the line or file.

-

Then I could start the install as normal....that only took me an hour to sort this through.

Thanks works perfect

What to do is make sure you have the following code in your htaccess file AT THE TOP "SetEnv DEFAULT_PHP_VERSION 4" and magic_quotes_gpc = On in the php.ini file.

Make sure both these files are in you dolphin directory.

Just delete this script on the /inc/header.inc.php

$aErrors[] = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? '' : '<font color="red">get_magic_quotes_gpc is Off, enable it</font>';

and this

//set_magic_quotes_runtime(0);
//ini_set('magic_quotes_sybase', 0);

magic quotes gpc is required for dolphin to function correctly. Advising people to disable the warning is inviting future problems. I advise everyone NOT to do this.
