Observium CE 22.5 should fully support php 8.1
But you need by first upgrade Observium to latest, than php. If you get these errors, you didn't update correctly CE.

Hi -
I had a happy persona/home Observium CE 19.x install on Debian (testing) running w/MySQL 5.5 and PHP 7.0 that I finally decided to upgrade to MariaDB 10.6 / PHP 8.1 and am running into some issues.
- I did the PHP 8.1 upgrade first without touching anything else. I started getting the following:
% /opt/observium/discovery.php -u PHP Fatal error: Uncaught ValueError: mysqli_query(): Argument #2 ($query) cannot be empty in /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php:291 Stack trace: #0 /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php(291): mysqli_query() #1 /opt/observium/includes/db.inc.php(225): dbCallQuery() #2 /opt/observium/includes/sql-config.inc.php(97): dbQuery() #3 /opt/observium/discovery.php(19): include('...') #4 {main} thrown in /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php on line 291
I get something similar in the web interface:

- I decided to upgrade to Observium CE 22.5. No change. I even cleaned up my config.php and removed some obsolete items.
- I upgraded MySQL 5.5 -> MariaDB 10.6. No change.
The CE 22.5 announcement indicated PHP8 should be supported now. However, I'm wondering if that doesn't include PHP 8.1.
Does anyone have CE 22.5 running successfully on Debian with PHP 8.1? If so, did you have to tweak anything to get it to work? If there's something obvious in the docs I've missed please just post a link and indicate RTFM ;)
Thanks in advance!
