WHMCS Application Error in Error_log after upgrade

[artaweb]

Hello,

I've been using WHMCS php version 5.6 for the past 6 years so yesterday decided to upgrade to 7.3 version. 

I ran into lots of trouble of modules that were encrypted with ioncube php version 5.6, some vendors helped and provided compatible. 

So far so good now, however, I am getting the following error in error_log

Anyone had the same problem? 

I wanted to open a ticket but thought maybe someone have had the same problem here.
