About Issue:
This indicates that a corrupted serialized string is stored in your database (or cache) and is causing an error when being unserialized. This typically happens due to one of the following reasons:
- A string was truncated or cut off
- Character encoding issues occurred
- A database backup or restore operation failed to preserve serialized string lengths correctly
Solution:
Clear all caches and try again. If you use Memcache, restart the Memcache server to clear its cache as well.
Example: To identify broken serialized entries in your options table:
SELECT name, value FROM sys_options WHERE value LIKE 'a:%' OR value LIKE 'O:%';
Check database character encoding:
Make sure your database tables and columns use the correct charset and collation, ideally
utf8mb4_unicode_ci
or similar. Encoding issues can cause serialized strings to get truncated.Check for PHP
mbstring
extension:If your data contains multibyte or special characters, ensure the
mbstring
PHP extension is installed and enabled, as its absence can cause unserialize issues.Pertform server audit:
go to: https://example.com/studio/dashboard.php and click on button "server audit" and post the result here
Maibe you ned to reinstall php-fpm

Debugging Recommendation:
While debugging in a development environment, it’s fine to enable detailed error reporting. However, on a live/production environment:
In your
inc/header.inc.php
or yourphp.ini
file, set:error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_WARNING);
And in
php.ini
:display_errors = Off log_errors = On
Then restart PHP-FPM to apply the changes:
systemctl restart php8.2-fpm
How to get logs and post here for debugging:
Go to UNA logs folder and list files:
cd /path/to/una/ ls logs
if you have multiple logs, you can tail them:
tail -n 50 logs/*.log
Show last 50 lines of Nginx error log:
tail -n 50 /var/log/nginx/error.log
Show last 50 lines of PHP-FPM log:
tail -n 50 /var/log/php8.2-fpm.log
Copy the output and paste it here, so maybe we can help.
Make sure to delete username and your domain name from the logs before sharing.
Happy coding!
