[Bob Tanner]

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function get_magic_quotes_gpc() in /var/www/metaserver/meta_update.php:93\nStack trace:\n#0 {main}\n thrown in /var/www/metaserver/meta_update.php on line 93

The error encountering is because get_magic_quotes_gpc() has been removed in PHP 8.0. The code checks for magic quotes, a feature that was deprecated in PHP 5.3.0 and removed in PHP 8.0.0.
