#4685 (ok 4.3.6) Call to a member function isUserType() on a non-object

PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function isUserType() on a non-object in …/phpMyAdmin-4.3.4-english/libraries/Menu.class.php on line 511

I just downloaded the archive, uncompressed it, and tried to access it. I updated from a former version where I was logged in. I cleared my cookies, tried another browser, but no luck.

If you need more information, please ask.

Did you remove all the files of the older version (except the config.inc.php) before unpacking the newer version? Or does doing so now fixes the issue for you?

[Alexander Schuch]

I uncompressed the archive into a new empty directory.

I am using:
PHP 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.15 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Oct 29 2014 12:19:04)

Cannot reproduce with PHP 5.3.28, but I don't have Suhosin. Does your PHP have the mysqli extension?

[Alexander Schuch]

The PHP version by the way is the stock PHP version shipped (and maintained) with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

mysql
mysqli
PDO
pdo_mysql

Those are the database modules used at the server. So yes, "mysqli" is installed.

How is that "pending" supposed to go away?

Anyway, I tested 4.3.5 as well - same problem. Not using a "config.inc.php", I see a login prompt. Using a "config.inc.php" - one which works for 4.2.13 - I get a blank page with following error:

PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function isUserType() on a non-object in …/phpMyAdmin-4.3.5-english/libraries/Menu.class.php on line 511

[Marc Delisle]

Please attach your config.inc.php, obfuscating sensitive details.

[Alexander Schuch]

$cfg['ServerDefault'] = 0;

If the line above is commented out from config.inc.php, which works for 4.2.13, 4.3.5 works as well.
