Modules appear and disappear

Post by soople »

Hi there!

Recently installed CMS 1.0.2. Installation of Calendar 0.7.5 worked just fine. Then I put the code {cms_module module="Calendar"} on a content page.

When I look at that page via the front-end, the calendar is not always showing. As I refresh, sometimes it appears, and then it disappears again. Tried with FX and IE.

I encountered the problem with the Album 0.7.4 as well, and when I click "FotoAlbums" under "Content" in the Admin-area I enounter some problems too. Maybe they're related? Sometimes the "FotoAlbums" link doesnt show at all, but it reappaears after refreshing. When I do clcik it, sometimes Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /var/www/vhosts/***/httpdocs/admin/moduleinterface.php on line 106 appears. Hit F5, and it's gone.

Same problem when I look at the modules-page: sometimes Album and Calender are there, sometimes the're not.

Any ideas?

Try setting the page as 'non cachable' and see what happens.

Hi

same problem here:
I have no idea why, but suddenly (linux server) the
   feedback form,
   pisearch
and
  uploads
(maby some more that I did not notice)
   
have disappeard from the extensions / modules menu.

The directories are still on the server!
The parts of the pages where the content (search box, form) should appear is empty.

As the search is in the template I can not make it "not chacheable".

It could be a PHP memory limit problem, if it's set to 8M.

You could try adding:

ini_set("memory_limit", "16M");

to your config.php file to see if it resolves the problems.

I'm with Nullig here...I've had similar problems and when I added a

Code: Select all

memory_limit 16M
to my .htaccess file, all was good.

Hi

I have found a solution for this time for me.
I have used filezilla as ftp client to check the modules directory (http://filezilla.sf.net/ ).
I noticed, that the 3 vanished modules suddenly (!) had a different owner.
I was unable to delete the files/directories to reinstall, so I emailed my host to change the complete modules folder to myself as owner. They did and told me the reason could be because so many domains are hosted on a single server (no idea if this really could be the reason).
See the image which shows the 3 modules with wrong owner.

Now, that I am owner again and all files/directories have chmod 755 the modules are "back" and working again.

I well - I have noticed, that the captchas created in /modules/captchas/images have the same owner as the (former) missing modules. As this was only a number (no name) I suppose it was the apache process owning the files/folders. The captchas owned by the apache I was able to remove using the captchas menu. (But of course the reappear when a captcha is created.

Maybe this helps.
