Hi Pieter,

 it's mean you not changed php module on apache (it does not change automatically).

You need switch module something like this:
 sudo a2enmod php7.4
 sudo a2dismod php7.0
 sudo systemctl restart apache2

(but I not sure about your module names, check installed modules:
 a2query -m

Hi Mike,

 

I do have php7.4 installed but for some reason Observium still using 7.0.33

 

Not sure how to fix it.

 

php -v

PHP 7.4.14 (cli) (built: Jan 12 2021 13:59:46) ( NTS )

Fixed in r10991,

 but sure, error can happened only on old php versions (less 7.1).

Just in 4 feb released actual php versions (8.0.2, 7.4.15 and 7.3.27)
with fixed some critical secure issues.
