Error: Declaration of Auth_ORM_Driver in Kohana 2.3.4

Question

I moved a Kohana website of mine to another webserver and I'm getting this error:

modules/auth/libraries/drivers/Auth/ORM.php [12]: Declaration of Auth_ORM_Driver::complete_login() should be compatible with that of Auth_Driver::complete_login()

I'm using Kohana 2.3.4 and PHP 5.3.3.

The system was running perfect in the previous server, and in the new server there's already an old website version running perfectly (same system and same kohana version).

Any clue about what the problem might be? Maybe a problem when transferring the files or perhaps a permission issue?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Basically it means your new server has strict error reporting on so it's complaining about the method parameters/arguments defined in subclass Auth_ORM_Driver not being the same as in Auth_Driver. Two solutions in this case;

• change error reporting level to not complain about this OR
• change Auth_ORM_Driver::complete_login() to accept $user param without User_Model type requirement in front of it
