Hi,

I'm receiving the following error many, many times per minute from drupal log:

TYPE   php
DATE   Wednesday, December 11, 2013 - 22:31
USER     class_admin
MESSAGE   Strict warning: Non-static method CRM_Utils_System::href() should not be called statically in CRM_Utils_System::href() (line 140 of /home/class/public_html/sites/all/modules/civicrm/drupal/modules/views/civicrm.views.inc).
SEVERITY     debug

Clearly its points towards the civicrm.views.inc The code at that line is as follows:

Code: [Select]

/**
 * Return link to CiviCRM path
 *
 * @param $text
 *
 * @param $path
 *
 * @param $query
 *
 * @return String path to CiviCRM
 */
function civicrm_views_href($text, $path, $query) {
  civicrm_initialize();
  require_once 'CRM/Utils/System.php';
  return CRM_Utils_System::href($text, $path, $query);
}

Anyone got any ideas or pointers?

This is a strict warning, and it probably means you are using PHP 5.4 or higher, whilst part of CiviCRM is still based on PHP 5.3. Strict means that you are checking all the rules as strictly as possbile. A warning does mean that you are breaking some of the PHP rules, but the program still does what it is supposed to do.
If you Google on 'hiding strict errors in Drupal' you are bound to get some pointers on how to suppress these errors? Alternatively, fix the issues in the CiviCRM code and you will be terribly loved within the community

In this case the function civicrm_views_href in a static way whilst it is not a static function. Changing it to:

Code: [Select]

static function civicrm_views_href($test, $path, $query) {will probably make the warning disappear.

Hey Erik,

Thanks for getting back! Yep - I got the suppression solution / workaround alright. In Drupal I found the disable_messages module, which I think does that job.

The developers over at OOSeed tell me this issue has been seen to. Here is code in case in anyone is interested....

/CRM/Utils/System.php

Code: [Select]

-  function href($text, $path = NULL, $query = NULL, $absolute = TRUE,
+ static function href($text, $path = NULL, $query = NULL, $absolute = TRUE,
    $fragment = NULL, $htmlize = TRUE, $frontend = FALSE, $forceBackend = FALSE
