Can't Set Outoing Mail
January 24, 2012, 11:24:17 am
civicrm/admin/setting/smtp?reset=1 gives

Code: [Select]
Fatal error: Cannot unset string offsets in /home/mysite.com/www/www/sites/all/modules/civicrm/CRM/Core/Form.php on line 344
I changed

Code: [Select]
        unset( $defaults['qfKey'] );
to

Code: [Select]
        unset( $defaults->qfKey);
and it works. Not sure what else I may have broken however. :)

I have the same problem getting to 'civicrm/admin/setting/smtp?reset=1' with 4.1.beta2.

Hershel's workaround also worked for me. Thanks.

Would be better (IMO) to figure out whats happening and why, rather than modifying the core code (which probably does have some implications in other places)

kurund and I could not reproduce it, else we would have tracked it down

Just a "me too" to experience this error on J2.5 and Civi 4.1.b3
Fix works for me too.

I'm getting this too with 41b3 on two servers.

see also:
http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?topic=22628.0
http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?topic=22503.0

it looks like the problem is that the previous line: $defaults = $this->setDefaultValues( );
returns a serialized array, which unset() can't interpret as it's a string.

maybe this is a php 5.2 vs 5.3 issue? both my sites are running 5.2.

Nope, the OP was regarding a site on my servers and we run PHP 5.3.

I get the same behaviour  for civicrm/admin/setting/smtp?reset=1 as Hershel on 4.1.beta3 and PHP 5.3.6. His fix works for me as well.

In addition, Civi seems to have lost my Outbound Mail Settings during the upgrade (none of the radio buttons were set).

I then set the Mail Settings to 'Disable Outbound Mail'.

I then reverted Hershel's fix to restore the original code (deleting compiled templates, just to be sure), and then went back to civicrm/admin/setting/smtp?reset=1

This time I didn't get the error!

However, once again, none of the radio buttons were set.

I, once again, set the Mail Settings to 'Disable Outbound Mail'.

Now when I return to civicrm/admin/setting/smtp?reset=1 I don't get the error and the Mail Settings are set to 'Disable Outbound Mail'.

Suggestion for reproducing: Try upgrading a fresh install from (say) 4.0.7 to 4.1.beta3 and then go to civicrm/admin/setting/smtp?reset=1 - that might reproduce the problem. (Perhaps the sandbox is a fresh install???)

Thanks Ken, now I am able to replicate this. I will check and get back on this.
