vBSEO Sitemap 2.5: PHP Deprecated: Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() is deprecated

I updated to latest PHP stable version which is PHP 5.3.1 and i'm getting a lot of these errors in logs:

2010/01/08 09:53:32 [error] 10593#0: *998646 FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP Deprecated: Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() is deprecated in /var/www/html/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php on line 70" while reading response header from upstream, client: 66.xxx.xx.xx. request: "GET /sitemap_10.xml.gz HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://127.0.0.1:9000"

How can fix this?

Thanks.

Hello,

I do not think that we have release a new sitemap generator since 5.3 came out. I will flag this for a developer and be sure that it is fixed for our 2.6 version.

As a temporary fix, please try this:

in vbseo_getsitemap.php

find

Code:

error_reporting(E_ALL&~E_NOTICE);

replace with

Code:

@error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE ^ E_DEPRECATED);

Thanks Brian. You saved my day.

But this should be properly documented for others. I was banging my head on the 'incorrect site map error' for quite long time.

Glad I found this thread, worked for me also. That was a good exercise to get to the bottom of this problem.
Maybe put a conditional there in a future version of that file so its automatically detected to switch?
I would imagine many have this problem.

This is already fixed in 2.6

OK, thanks for the info.
On this particular site, I had just downloaded and installed the latest stable version, 2.5.
I notice 2.6 is still Beta and as such, not advised for production sites, nor with support.
When it's released as stable, I will install it.
But thank you for clarifying.
Even though you are working on 2.6 maybe a 2.5.2 is in order as quick patch? Something to think about..
Anyway keep up the great work on a great product. Thanks again.

If you're using vbseo 3.5.x, you should be using sitemap 2.6, beta or not. 2.5 is likely giving you improper urls /a/ in them. While beta, it is a fairly stable product and recommended for use in production.

Thanks, I followed all instructions and never got that memo, off to upgrade now, sigh.

There are two different rewrite rules, glad I noticed (instructions say that rewrite is in place already if you use vbseo, which I do, but the vbseo installed rewrite rule is different). Which should I use? Thanks in advance.

Code:

RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap_).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

They are basically the same thing. one just has an _ in it (which all files have) and is the one you should use so as to be more specific in case you have other sitemap files from another system, etc.

Hi Brian, thanks for all this info, you guys rock.
