Thanks. Will look into it. I have not run the library through all possible paths, so this could be a day one issue. I should have something by Friday.

That is great, thanks so much. This has been a really fun project and it has only been possible due to this project of your, I really appreciate it.

We have run into this issue so many times recently when updating to the latest Contao 4.13 which requires PHP 8.0 or higher, they made a change where you basically can't pass null. I think this would be easily fixed by just writing a manual check "If null, ignore", I've had to do it over and over updating custom projects to the newer PHP version.

If your busy, I can possibly try and hunt the link down and push an edit myself, but I will be patient and look out for your update.

Thanks again.

I just looked a the code. I require session support to be turned on. Make sure that is on. Will try to see if I can figure out a way to require it in composer. If session support is on, try hacking line 492 of Client.php to:

$value = $_SESSION[$key] ?? '';

I will add that in the next release (Thursday I hope for PHP 8.2 support).

Also just FYI, it looks like you might be including the vendor directory in the public_html directory, which is BAD!!!! If so, move composer.json to /home/framework, the do composer install from that directory. You will just need to change your autoload.php include path and the rest should work.

Session support is on, I am doing all of this through the Contao CMS and it would not work without it. I tried calling it just to be sure and it didn't make a difference.

As for vendor being in public_html, that is how Contao does it. They have you change the root directory to 'public_html/web' during installation, composer and their packages sit one up from that in what is usually the root 'public_html'. Thanks for the advice though, much appreciated.

I will try this fix for now and let you know how it goes.

Good to know. Check out the Client::setSessionHandler as well.

I will be releasing a PHP 8.2 version today or tomorrow. Let me know what you find.

Thanks
