Conversation
As the PHP 7.4 image broke with missing security dependencies in Debian Bullseye (at time of writing, as yet unresolved), resolved to complete the upgrade to PHP 8.4 rather than try to build a stopgap solution based on existing PHP 7.4. Unfortunately PHP 8.4 has a number of incompatible changes in 8.x series, documented at https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration80.incompatible.php. I have audited some of the more obvious ones -- but there is potential for other breakages which we will need to monitor. Changes required: * move from PHP 7.4 to PHP 8.4 Docker image (upgrades Debian, Apache, PHP as major components) * dependency upgrades forced for Sentry, phpunit, curl-client * addition of BCTLS flag to .htaccess mod_rewrite rules (https://stackoverflow.com/q/75684314/1836776) * Fixup of several unencoded URLs Other changes to come include handling excessive warnings in logs: * sentry/sentry: [warning] The "zend.exception_ignore_args" PHP setting is enabled which results in missing stack trace arguments, see: https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/php/troubleshooting/#missing-variables-in-stack-traces. * sentry/sentry: [debug] The "Sentry\Integration\ExceptionListenerIntegration, Sentry\Integration\ErrorListenerIntegration, Sentry\Integration\FatalErrorListenerIntegration, Sentry\Integration\RequestIntegration, Sentry\Integration\TransactionIntegration, Sentry\Integration\FrameContextifierIntegration, Sentry\Integration\EnvironmentIntegration, Sentry\Integration\ModulesIntegration" integration(s) have been installed.
