vBulletin vBulletin 5.2.1 Release Candiate 3 Released

[Mark.B]

The second release candidate of vBulletin 5.2.1 has been released. This fixes some bugs found in Release Candidate 2, and brings the version closer to a full release.

I have a couple of problems with Rc2, but I hope that they are fixed before the final release. I never inputted or know how to properly submit to the JIRA.

If I enable Cache Templates As Files I have the following errors:

Warning: include(.../cache/template/template.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/xxx/public_html/includes/vb5/template.php on line 330 Warning: include(): Failed opening '.../cache/template/template.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/php70/pear') in /home/xxx/public_html/includes/vb5/template.php on line 330 

And I receive this error even when Cache Templates as Files is turned off:

Warning: Illegal string offset 'view' in /home/xxx/public_html/includes/vb5/template.php(324) : eval()'d code on line 26 

Question, does PHP 7 work with memcached?

[Mark.B]

It doesn't work for me either...though I don't get an error when it's disabled.

Have logged the issue as a bug:

Bug fixed for Release Candidate 3.

Release Candidate 3 is now available for download from the members area.

This should hopefully be pretty close to what the final release looks like....a release I'm quite excited about, since it adds php 7 compatibility, along with other good stuff.

Onwards to 5.2.2 and the new CKEditor...
