Cataloger random display

I've got a question that I can't figure it out by myself:
on a page, I've got this:
Code: Select all
{cms_module module='Cataloger' action='random'}
which supposively has to show a random pick from the cataloger items I've got.
However, I get the following error:
Code: Select all
string(65) "Smarty error: unable to read resource: "module_db_tpl:Cataloger;""
Any ideas why this is?

Maybe you need to add the template variable?...
From the cataloger Help...
Random Items Feature List
The syntax for a "random" list is like:
{cms_module module='Cataloger' action='random' sub_template='my_sub_template'}, where sub_template is the template to use to render the list. There are two optional parameters, count='3' alias='page_alias', where count is the number of items to include, and page_alias indicates the top of the tree (e.g., a place in your menu hierarchy, typically a category page) in which to look for new items. A special value for "page_alias" is "/", which means to use all pages in the site.

I forgot to mention it - I tried this, but stayed the same. Both with names of templates within the Cataloger module and template (the general ones).

jd,
Does your template name contain special characters?
Does the content of the used template contain special characters?
I had much support from the following message:
