Hmmm. We'll have to test and see if we have any in Moodle. - Is there a way to turn it back to the old behaviour with a warning going to the logs? - Is there a way to get v8.2.x to warn on the dubious casts so we can tighten the application side while on v8.2? cheers, martin ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
