[Tikiwiki-users] Tiki-16.2 vs php-7.1: blank page - status 500

[Tóth Attila]

I've just tried to upgrade from php-7.0 to php-7.1.
Using php-7.0 tiki shows up fine.
Switching to php-7.1 results in a blank page. I migrated my changes to the
php configuration from 7.0 to 7.1. Other php pages render fine, like for
example squirrelmail or dadabik. So there's something specific with Tiki.
All I can see in the logs is a PHP Notice in the logs:
"
PHP Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered in
/var/www/localhost/htdocs/tiki/lib/core/Tiki/MemoryLimit.php on line 50
"

Making this change to the source code solves the error message:
"

$last = strtolower($s{strlen($s)-1});
switch ( $last ) {
case 'g': $s *= 1024;
"

However tiki still shows a blank page and returns HTTP status 500. I can
see no particular entries in any log files - either apache or system
related.

I'm not sure here whether tiki-16.2 ment to work with php-7.1?

Are there any ideas how I can squeeze out some error messages apart from
status code 500?

Thanks:
