Good to hear it's working for you.

Looks like you are using PHP 8.2.
This is not supported in 2.25.x see https://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=32027.
So you have to use PHP 8.1 or wait until MantisBT 2.26.0 will be released.

Doesn't this mean, that you lose the latest versions of the plugins that come out of the box with MantisBT?

Wrong Should be Of course, you can keep the line dropped, as function pgg_check_table does not check or change any data.

Which version was installed before 2.25.7?
Which PHP version are you using?
How did you run the upgrade? (provide step by step instructions)
