Low memory loading modules + admin CSS not loading.

[vesperto]

I've recently started goofing around with site building so i've given use to an old Pentium with 160RAM. It's running LAMP: Linux Debian 4.1 with a "minimal" install; Apache 2.2.3; mySQL Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.32; PHP 5.2.0-8. I've installed from packages.deb even though i'd rather compile from source - i'll do that in the future and use Open BSD just for the hell of it. Oh, CMSMS is 1.2, got it a few days ago.

It's a local server, just for sand-boxing really. When running the services, without any browser-use, it usually has around 32MB of free RAM. The problems started when i tried loading the captcha module, it gave some error that was memory-related. From then on, the CSS on the admin section (after login) won't load. I guess this particular issue is similar to this post:

http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=83ef0f50119f5551b5a49935d0a039d0&topic=4792.msg26764#msg26764

I did find readfile:

Code: Select all

root@retservilo/var/www/cmsmadesimple-1.2/admin> grep readfile * -R 
loginstyle.php: readfile(dirname(__FILE__)."/themes/default/css/style.css");
style.php:      readfile(dirname(__FILE__)."/themes/".$theme."/css/".$style);
style.php:      readfile(dirname(__FILE__)."/themes/default/css/".$style);
tab.php:        readfile(dirname(__FILE__)."/themes/$theme/tab.css");
tab.php:        readfile(dirname(__FILE__)."/themes/default/tab.css");

Since i'm runing it myself, does anyone know how to permit readfile to be used? I guess that's a little off-topic since it's either dealt with configuring Apache or PHP, not CMSMS.


The second issue i have is that ever since the instalation of that module failed (guess it was a partial install), i can't even access the modules. Now i get this:

Code: Select all

Warning: require_once(/var/www/cmsmadesimple-1.2/modules/Captcha/lib/classes/module/class.captcha.php)
[function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/cmsmadesimple-1.2/modules/Captcha/Captcha.module.php on line 47

thrown by admin/listmodules.php, where line 47 is a white space. I know the captcha module hasn't been isntalled but apaprently that's registered as a yes somewhere in the database...


Yes, i oughta use a machine with more RAM, but for now, that's all i have. I'd like to solve at least the partial install issue.
Any suggestions will be welcome.

You may have to FTP to your server and delete what folder/files from the module there are...
