Deprecated error in 3.11 with latest Apache install

Deprecated error in 3.11 with latest Apache install

Was setting up a Dev moodle install on a new laptop for testing some themes and suchlike.

Grabbed normal Apache download and installed it. Aka latest 8.1.1 install from their homepage.
Which has PHP 8.1.1 

Noted: MDL-70745 - PHP 8.0 support is being implemented for Moodle 3.11 and later releases. Hence it's still incomplete and only for development purposes.

Got Moodle 3.11 via Git
Went to install and it immediately hit a Deprecation -

Deprecated: Return type of moodle_recordset::rewind() should either be compatible with Iterator::rewind(): void, or the #[\ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute should be used to temporarily suppress the notice in C:\Dev_Servers\xampp\htdocs\moodle\lib\dml\moodle_recordset.php on line 61

So will have to revert to an earlier Xampp with 7.x php.

But thought I'd mention it here though  in case others installing the latest apache get the same or similar error.
Ans so that the moodle devs are aware of the error.

Cheers
Ian.

Hi Ian,

That particular issue is MDL-73424 (part of the ongoing PHP8.1 epic at MDL-73016)

Solution is to not use those versions of PHP, and stick to supported versions only

Hy, I am trying to install Moodle 3.11 on Fedora 36 with PHP 8.1 and Postgres 14.1 although Moodle and PHP only works with PHP 7.4 versions.

Hope this issue with php xmlrpc module can be solved soon.

Thanks.

Do you have a reason for wanting to use PHP 8?

Hy, just to stay up to date. 

In fact I downgraded PHP from 8.1 to 7.4 and have got Moodle installed in Fedora 36 running nicely. (HTTPD + Postgres 14.1 + PHP 7.4)

Thanks
