Good morning,

The errors are "warnings" so that programmers can adapt their code. You are probably using PHP 7.1.x .

Up until PHP release 7 the language used "loosely" typing where the type of a variable changed based on the instructions accessing the variable.
A string could be added to an integer and the result could be a string or an integer, just as you wanted.
With PHP 7 a more robust "typing" is requested, hence the warnings.

Normally in a production environment the error reporting is switched off so these messages would not be displayed. It seems error reporting is default on for your site.

===

 "Invalid" or empty or non-existent data cause these errors, which is normal as not every day of a year you were or are uploading data to WU. The scripts cope with those values correctly, so the resulting tables and values are correct. The warnings could have been avaided, sorry for that 

===

script wsreports/wsReportsDaily.php line 136 is now

Code: [Select]

$value = 1.0*$arrResults[$i][$k];change to

Code: [Select]

$value = 1.0 * (float) $arrResults[$i][$k];
===

script wsreports/wsReportsSum.php line 97 is now

Code: [Select]

$value = 1.0*$arrResults[$k];change to

Code: [Select]

$value = 1.0 * (float) $arrResults[$k];
===

Switching off the error reporting is also advisable. You can always manually switch it on by adding ?debug to the url

script wsreports/startReports.php line 1 is now

Code: [Select]

<?php  change to

Code: [Select]

<?php    ini_set('display_errors', 0);        error_reporting(0);

Hello, all

I know it's an old topic but i adapted the scripts to the new version but it throws two errors in WSrEportsSum:

Code: [Select]

$arrTotals[0][$cols] = $arrTotals[0][$cols] + $value;

Is there someone who knows what to change, i presume it is also the float-thing but i don't know where to put it in this case!

Thanks for replying anyway!

Staccermaccer,

Very strange that still some users can access their WU data as most get only data for 2019 till May 23 or June 13.
But for as long as you can access your WU data: I Attach a php7+ version of the same script
Succes, Wim
