CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Trying to get this installed and configured as a favor for a friend, and have no experience what so ever with this plugin (also my first time working with Joomla so I am doubly handicapped here). I am trying to get the CiviMember setup and configured for paid memberships, but when I go into CiviContribute to setup a New Contribution Page, it just errors out (blank page). I have narrowed it down to the core/menu.php, wherein it is trying to unserialize some DB items that are causing the error. Error log states the following:
----------
PHP Notice:  unserialize()  [<a href='function.unserialize'>function.unserialize</a>]: Argument is not a string in /var/www/html/members.rfw.org/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Core/Menu.php on line 618.

Versions:
-Joomla: 1.5.10
-PHP: 5.1.6
-MySQL: 5.0.22
-Apache: Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS)
-CiviCRM: 2.2.5
Anybody have any quick fix for this? I still have a lot of other stuff to do, and a deadline of tomorrow afternoon to do it, so I am really hoping I can get this one solved fast and move on.
Thanks anyone that looks at least. I really appreciate it.

Didn't work... It appears thats just a notice error though...If I throw an "or die();" onto the end, civiCRM doesnt work in any component so it must be an error thats thrown everytime the menu component loads.
 I missed a fatal one at the bottom of the log however that is more likely the cause.
The fatal error thrown is:
------
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function array_fill_keys() in /joomlaRoot/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Contribute/Form/ContributionPage.php on line 220
------

So why isn't array_fill_keys working... its native as of PHP5, is it overridden somewhere?

The version of PHP I listed is the version being ran... I just found a post thats related though.

This post states that array_fill_keys is only available in php 5.2 and higher (the php manual says versions 5 -5.2).
There is a replacement function noted in that post, but the person who had the problem wasnt savvy enough to figure out where it belongs. I am going to attempt this fix, and will let everyone know if it works, so that perhaps this can be solved for anyone else in my position in the future.
