hi,

i found this also. I'm running gentoo witha recent kernel, but the php was compiled without the 'hash' keyword.

I've rebuilt ('emerged ") and plan to try shortly (haven't had time yet).

fwiw, my current use flags are as follows if any gentoo-folks know if gentoo needs any other use flags turned on to run elgg, please weigh in.

thanks:

SOLVED

a follow-up: rebuilding (emerging) php with the 'hash' option (use flag) solved the problem

Thanks for the help.

suggestion:

• By default elgg shoud have 'display errors' on
• An error page shoud include the message in a hidden div. A 'show/hide' javascript link would show the div, i.e. so that those-technically inclined can see the error by clicking 'show'

@Billmil -- Elgg in non-debug mode should definitely not have display errors on by default.  It is a standard security practice in web applications to disable specific error reporting on live servers.  However, in debug mode, error reporting should be enabled.  The same applies to hiding it in a div.  The reasoning behind this is that you don't want a misconfigured application announcing publicly what's happening on your server.
