  • 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 your php.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!
