Issue with ew_Execute (v2018)

PHPMaker General Discussion (PHPMaker)
1

Hello,
I am using PHPMaker 2018. I am running the generated code on Windows Server 2026 with PHP V7.4. I have a project that I had on a Windows Server 2012 that I am migrating to the 2016 server. I have a Dashboard.php file that I have a number of ew_ExecuteScalar lines of code that have always worked but on this server none of my ew_Execute or ew_ExecuteScalar functions work. Is this an issue with the PHP Version or the PHPMaker version? It appears that PHPMaker generated files want to use mysql_ instead of mysqli_, is that true or am I misreading the errors?

Thanks,
JW

What are the errors?

Here is what I get when I have any ew_Execute or ew_ExecuteScalar. I have removed the path and left the file names.

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined method mysqli::Execute() in ewshared14.php:1521 Stack trace: #0 ewshared14.php(1351): ew_LoadRecordset() #1 Dashboard.php(375): ew_ExecuteScalar() #2 {main} thrown

ewshared line 1521 is $rs = $conn->Execute($SQL);
and is in the function &ew_LoadRecordset( function

1351 is $rs = ew_LoadRecordset($SQL, $c);
And it is in the function ew_ExecuteScalar( Function

I have a few other projects that I created with PHPMaker 2018 on this same server and they work fine. One is a very, very large project with well over a thousand generated files and tons of code using ew_ExecuteScalar but I have no issues with that one. I do not however use the Dashboard.php on that one. The Dashboard.php file is a custom file created using the Add Custom File feature and Include Common Files tick box checked. In that file I have a few ew_ExecuteScalar commands and if any one of them are used the file breaks with that same error.
