php - Warning: strpos() expects parameter 1 to be string, resource

Question

I recently migrated a PHP site to my server and after migration I receive this error message. As I'm not really familiar with PHP, I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks.

Warning: strpos() expects parameter 1 to be string, resource given in .../public_html/store /product_list.php on line 121

Line 121 is as follows...

$exists = (strpos($handle, "Resource id") !== false) ? true : false;

Here is the rest of the code on the top of the page for relevance.

<?php session_start();

Try replacing line 121 with the following:

$handle = @file_get_contents($thumb);
