Question Deprecated: Assigning the rturn value of new by reference is deprecated

When I try to install vbcredits II Deluxe and run the XML file, I get the following errors:

I'm running vbulletin 3.8.6 on php 5.3. Could this be an issue of it not working with php 5.3? VB3.8.6 is supposed to support that.

I think it's happening on the step where it attempts to create the vbcredits II menu item in the admin CP.

ETA: This is a test install on my local server.

This is a bug in vBulletin and is not related to vBCredits. Internet Brands has thus far refused to update vBulletin 3.8 to support PHP 5.3 AFAIK.

Ah, thank you.
