I have been trying to see if I can get it working with php7 as well. It looks like one can change it to use the MDB2 Beta that uses mysqli driver, but other files I think including the smarty libraries have to change. I have not made much progress myself as I am not a php developer. Just looking to see what I can change in the code to get it working.

I have not tested sending and receiving faxes (of course the main functions) because, at the moment, I don't have a phone line, but all the other functions seem to work: searching in archive, forwarding archived faxes by email, downloading archived faxes, searching in address book, editing contacts, adding new contacts, changing settings.
As soon as I can I'll try sending and receiving faxes.

Great job, Simone!
I have just used your code on github and this is what I am getting:

I have the fax archived by script includes/avantfaxcron.php, so probably I didn't tested a manual archiving. Which version of PHP are you using? Which web server and version are you using? Do you have any other error message from web server log?
I cannot reproduce this error. Do you have any other error message from web server log?
I suppose you go to the "/admin" page, then you select "Configure Modem", then you click on the modem you want to edit (do you have a single modem?), then you change something (what you change?) and you get the error. Are you doing something different?
I have not configured any "Fax Category" so I didn't try those settings.
This one is just a warning but keeps coming up:

It comes up doing what? In which pages?

Hello Simone, not a problem at all, it's a nice piece of software and your help on getting it to work on PHP 7 has been great!

My apologies for the lack of information from my part. I am using PHP 7.2.11-1. on a Centos 8.0.1905 box, I run Apache 2.4.37-12. ( Apache/2.4.37 (centos) OpenSSL/1.1.1 mod_fcgid/2.3.9 PHP/7.2.11) .

Same thing here, I don't see an error on the server logs, just on the webconsole.
This happens on anything I want to edit that would go to the database it seems. For example, https://server/avantfax/settings.php , if I try to add anything and hit update, I get a blank page, no errors on the apache logs which is weird.
If I follow what you describe on configure modem, etc, I also get the same blank page, it happens on anything I want to edit. I have changed things (password, for example), straight on the MySQL database (mariadb-10.3.11-2.) as I can't do it anyway otherwise.
It comes up doing what? In which pages?
Probably it depends on the account (or modem) configurations. Could you post a screenshot of the settings of an account and of a medem? I'll try to configure my Avantfax like your.
I just tried to edit something on the admin user (adding something random on the company field, for example), when I click save, I get that warning and the data is not saved.
Sure thing, attached are a screenshot of an account (admin) and a modem.
Thanks again, Simone, much appreciated!
Edit: Something interesting, I have enabled query logging on MariaDB and I tried to edit the only modem I have (ttyIAX0) to add a category I was able to add "General"), the update doesn't show I selected the General category:
191229 12:25:40 2256 Connect avantfax@localhost as anonymous on avantfax

It seams something wrong writing to database... maybe in MDB2 driver or in database itself. Or, perhaps, in MDB2+php7.2, I don't have a server with php 7.2 to try.
If you manually change the database, do you see those changes in Avantfax?
Have you set define('AFDB_ENGINE','mysqli'); (mysqli) in file include/local_config.php?
Did you setup Avantfax database from sources or did you migrate it from a previous working installation in php5?
Does database user (configured in include/local_config.php) have the grant to update avantfax tables?

That's ok, what is the PHP you are running on yours?
If you manually change the database, do you see those changes in Avantfax?
I do see the changes in AvantFax if I change them on the DB.
Have you set define('AFDB_ENGINE','mysqli'); (mysqli) in file include/local_config.php?
I have mysqli set there.
Did you setup Avantfax database from sources or did you migrate it from a previous working installation in php5?
I installed from your git
Does database user (configured in include/local_config.php) have the grant to update avantfax tables?
The user has all grants on the avantfax database.
Weird or not, fax categories is something I can create on the webui different from other things.
Just checked that I can edit anything on the Admin settings page, only difference that when I press enter, it goes to a blank page but the data is saved to the DB.

Do you use MariaDB or MySQL? I ask that as I was seeing issues on my FreePBX and I got them sorted straight away when I swapped MySQL for MariaDB, just wondering if that would make any difference (same box, I use MariaDB).
I saw something weird yesterday, I logged the SQL queries and tried to run the exact same thing manually on the DB.
For example,trying to archive a fax, when I run the same statement:
ERROR 1366 (22007): Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'companyid' at row 1
Looks like it's related to the field being set as '' and not NULL. If I change the statement to companyid = NULL, it works.
But when I remove the fields that don't have anything (companyid, userid, etc) the query works BUT then the inbox page (URL/avantfax/inbox.php) enters in a constant loop which puzzles me.
To get that sorted, I have to reinsert at least one fax on the FaxArchive table then it doesn't loop.
Just thinking what else I could try apart from changing the PHP version.
Edit: Just downgraded to PHP 7.0 and the problem remains. I am really puzzled to why this is happening, just wondering where else I could have done wrong.
Something else I just noticed, trying to delete a number from the contacts, MariaDB shows this instead of a delete.
php7:warn] [pid 52606][client IP] PHP Warning: The magic method __set() must have public visibility and cannot be static in /var/www/html/avantfax/includes/AFUserAccount.php on line 800, referer: https://URL/avantfax/inbox.php
I went through the AFUserAccount.php and changed from private to public. I am now able to delete/add/change whatever I need anywhere.
I am just trying to test to see if I can receive a fax properly (send works well) and I think we can say it's working great!
Edit: And it works, I have everything on send/receive working as intended.
Thanks a lot for the help, Simone! Let me know if you have any questions or you need me to send you any file to check. Cheers!

It would be nice if this information would be on a revised install.txt
I am running on Slackware64 Current with php 7.4.8 from about a week ago today.
The site loads, but I have yet to test anything out.
Years ago I would use Centos for AvantFax but it is not my distribution of choice.
I know that in May, 2020 Avantfax 3.3.6 came out. I have not investigated what has changed.
I think it was Early Jan 2019 when I said it might be possible to use MDB2 on the second post on here. It really has taken me this long to find the time to mess around with this software.
On the backend I would normally used HylaFax, but I when I tried downloading it earlier last week I kept getting a bad gateway error. I downloaded HylaFax+ , but like I said, I have not tested anything out yet.

You don't have to use composer if you don't want, open the file composer.json where all required packages are listed and install them manually. I think it's a wast of time because that is the purpose of composer "A dependecy manager for PHP", but it's a matter of taste.

Hello Adan, starting from your idea of MDB2 beta I made some steps forward in order to have avantfax working on php7.
Check my commit here https://github.com/droscy/avantfax/commit/c0f96fee62f96e29755f9997d26d8cd9c71aa2c5
I have not tested sending and receiving faxes (of course the main functions) because, at the moment, I don't have a phone line, but all the other functions seem to work: searching in archive, forwarding archived faxes by email, downloading archived faxes, searching in address book, editing contacts, adding new contacts, changing settings.
As soon as I can I'll try sending and receiving faxes.
I succeded in sending and archving faxes with some fixes to the code. Check them out here https://github.com/droscy/avantfax
Great job, Simone!
I have just used your code on github and this is what I am getting:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined method MDB2_Error::disconnect() in /var/www/html/avantfax/includes/SQL.php:120\nStack trace:\n#0 /var/www/html/avantfax/includes/SQL.php(100): SQL->disconnect()\n#1 [internal function]: SQL->__destruct()\n#2 {main}\n thrown in /var/www/html/avantfax/includes/SQL.php on line 120

Hi Simone,
Again, great job on getting this nice piece of software working with PHP 7!
Just to add, here are the fields I saw having '' instead of NULL.
ompanyid = ''
faxcatid = ''
lastmoduser = ''
userid = ''
faxcontent = ''
Whatever you need from me on this side, just shout!
Ok, I am going to try this comming week.
I am installing on a test box running Slackware64-Current. I am getting pretty far along using the github repo from Simone. I noticed the new requirments on the INSTALL.TXT but I am trying to see about this dependency:
"vendor/autoload.php"
It's not included in anything I have downloaded yet.
Been 6 months I've tried this but this is what I have on my vendor/autload.php:
Looks like it's part of composer?
Hello AceStrider1, the autoload.php is created by composer while installing required packages. Or, at least, it shoud be... :-p
I got the web front end to load.
I basically followed the BASH instructions on:
https://getcomposer.org/download/
"
php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') === 'e5325b19b381bfd88ce90a5ddb7823406b2a38cff6bb704b0acc289a09c8128d4a8ce2bbafcd1fcbdc38666422fe2806') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
"
Ended up Downloading the composer.phar file on to the same web root directory as avantfax.
I then used ./composer.phar update.
I not sure how I feel about installing it this way. I don't like having internet access depedencies. I usually like to download and install all the packages manually, but in this case I just went ahead and did it this way.

It would be nice if this information would be on a revised install.txt
I am running on Slackware64 Current with php 7.4.8 from about a week ago today.
The site loads, but I have yet to test anything out.
Years ago I would use Centos for AvantFax but it is not my distribution of choice.
I know that in May, 2020 Avantfax 3.3.6 came out. I have not investigated what has changed.
I think it was Early Jan 2019 when I said it might be possible to use MDB2 on the second post on here. It really has taken me this long to find the time to mess around with this software.
On the backend I would normally used HylaFax, but I when I tried downloading it earlier last week I kept getting a bad gateway error. I downloaded HylaFax+ , but like I said, I have not tested anything out yet.
Kindest Regards,
Adan Calderón
Hello Adan,
You don't have to use composer if you don't want, open the file composer.json where all required packages are listed and install them manually. I think it's a wast of time because that is the purpose of composer "A dependecy manager for PHP", but it's a matter of taste.
Bye
Simone
