Hi All,

Im getting the following error when installing drupal;
warning: Compilation failed: characters with values > 255 are not yet supported in classes at offset 27 in /var/www/vhosts/d-manduffel.be/httpdocs/modules/user.module on line 246.

I've been wading through the forum here, and foud simular issues with the search.module (eg

  • http://drupal.org/node/12857

    • ) - where it is said this is due to an old php version. Would the error I am getting be the same? And is there a temporarly workaround around this? Just so my users won't see the error when registering, and I can get my host to upgrade the php?

    Apart from that little error everything is working like charm :-)

    Hope someone can help me out here...

    I've having the same problem here too. Fresh Drupal 4.7.4 install. Running PHP 4.3.2. An upgrade is not possible.

    Furthermore, I cannot change the password on the first account because of this. I get the warning mentioned above and the additional error "An illegal choice has been detected. Please contact the site administrator." when changing the timezone.

    I think I found a fix for this. Comment out lines 240-245 in user.module.
