I tried to install eFiction 3.5.5 on my localhost, what threw errors.
Now I tried to install it onto my website-host, but again ... errors. Different than with the local installation but anyway errors and I can't finish the installation.

What do I do wrong?

The first two lines are warnings about future changes on PHP, you can actually ignore these for now though it might become a problem once PHP is being updated on the server.
The third line though shows off a real problem for now.
Are you sure MySQL is enabled with your webhosting package?
You can check with the folowing code if MySQL is enabled at all.
Simply save the following inside a PHP file like "phpinfo.php" and reach it via your favorite browser:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
The first two have been fixed in an updated template class.
The third I just fixed.
Download the latest eFiction 3 from here: https://github.com/eFiction/v3_stable
Thank you, I will try it immediately.
I let you know if it helped.

I just moved my site back to my old host, even though I hate their pricing they are much easier to work with than Nexcess. When I moved it, that is what I got
Currently getting this updated the file with the current V# stable version but nothing changed.

I got it to work.
But I have some new errors now. See attached. These errors come only on the main page. If I go to a story or settings, it's fine.
I have PHP 5.6.40. Should actually work, since on my webspace there was 5.6.40 as well and it worked fine.
Any idea?
