Warning / Errors on index.php??? Admin section works fine...

[jpwillms]

Very strange, admin section works fine. Had a perfect install, but index.php spits out the following:

Warning: fetch(/home/directli/public_html/smarty/cms/templates_c//%%AA^AA2^AA247E45%%db%3A1.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/directli/public_html/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1254

Warning: fetch(): Failed opening '/home/directli/public_html/smarty/cms/templates_c//%%AA^AA2^AA247E45%%db%3A1.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/directli/public_html/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1254

Any clues what is going on? '/home/directli/public_html' is the proper root.... I am confused.

I believe this is because the web server doesn't have access to write to smarty/cms/cache and smarty/cms/template_c. chmod 777 should fix that problem.

I believe I have a similar problem

Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "db:/www.site-Name.com/index.php" in /homepages/22/accountNumber/htdocs/www.site-Name.com/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1084

The system path is correct, the URL isnt, it *should* be: http://s92332057.onlinehome.us/site-name//

I did all of the chmods in the install:

userName:~/www.mySite.com/smarty/cms > ls -ao

drwxrwxrwx 2 userName 4096 Oct 19 03:34 cache
drwxr-xr-x 2 userName 4096 Oct 11 20:18 configs
drwxr-xr-x 2 userName 4096 Oct 11 20:18 templates
drwxrwxrwx 2 userName 4096 Oct 11 20:18 templates_c

Admin works fine, as jpWilliams mentions.

I wonder if this is a bug due to symbols such as . or - in the path names :S

Edit: nope still fails on directories w/o symbols.

The system path is correct, the URL isnt, it *should* be: http://s92332057.onlinehome.us/site-name//

Check your config.php. It sounds like the root_url isn't set properly. If you do change that, make sure you change the preview_path or anything else with the URL in it as well.

[grendel]

The root_url is set to what it should be. Im going to reinstall, just incase i borked something. Im also going to put it on a real domain name this time, instead of the backup one.

Im pretty sure the error is somewhere between the chair and keyboard

I too have this problem:
Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "db:/cmsms/index.php" in /var/www/html/cmsms/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1084

I've checked the config.php and permissions and the should be ok.

When I use the full URL:
http://www.timmerweb.com/cmsms/index.php
the page is displayed fine. The error only occurs when I ommit the index.php.

I have a similar problem:

Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "db:/index.php" in /homepages/37/********/htdocs/****/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1084

I'm using 1and1 as the host (free previw account) - the mysql database is not 'localhost', could that have anything to do with this?

These are all related to lines 58-61 in index.php. Please comment them out for now. I need to find a solution for this that will work on all versions of PHP, but haven't found it yet.

[Ted]

If someone has time to help me debug this problem this weekend, please stop by the IRC channel. I'll need you to put some debug variables in index.php and then let me see the results.

Thanks!

Had the same problem, windows 2000 server, php 4.
Give the IUSR (internet user) write pemisssion on these directories as stored in the config.php:

$config["previews_path"] = "C:\server\simplecms\tmp\cache";
$config["uploads_path"] = "C:\server\simplecms\uploads";
$config["image_uploads_path"] = "C:\server\simplecms\uploads\images";
