Fatal error: Call to undefined function ctype_alpha() in /Applications/AMPPS/www/ee4/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso-core-reg/core/helpers/EEH_Inflector.helper.php on line 96
Environment: Localhost » AMPPS, MAC OS X 10.9.3
PHP 5.5
Wordpress: 4.2.2
EE: Version 4.7.9.p
The error is preventing me from adding events. Can you shed some light on this please?
That error means Event Espresso is calling a function that doesn’t exist, however the function listed is ctype_alpha() which is a core PHP function that has been included since PHP v4.0.4
Can you double check the full version number of PHP you are running please?
If EE is able to activate you can go to Event Espresso -> Maintenance -> System Info and find the PHP version there.
Under Maintenance I see three relevant messages.
At the top of the page, I see:
“Event Espresso recommends PHP version 5.4.33 or greater for optimal performance. You are currently running version 5.4.32.”
Under Raw System Data, I see:
“[php_version] => 5.4.32”
Lower down, under environment I see:
“environment
php
max_input_vars 1000
version 5.4.32”
Your running PHP 5.4.32 locally, which should include that core PHP function, but may need the PHP Extension to be enabled.
Can you check if the ctype PHP Extension is enabled on your install please, I’ve not used ampps before but a quick search shows it has some form of control panel which should allow you to se the available extensions:
Thanks for your help. Problem solved. I had to enable the extension in the AMMPS setup.
