CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,
After upgrading 1.8.2 to 1.9.4.3 and then finally to 1.10.3 I'm getting these errors quite often.
What can I do about it?

Regards,
Arjan

you may want to check and modify the access permissions for you tmp/cache/ folder... you can o that e.g. via ftp

Tried to do so and set all to permissions 777.
Does not make a difference

Also on the website itself I get errors

apparently there is something blocking access and you'll have to figure out what it is . possibly ask your hoster.

Check to make sure all modules are up to date and not incompatible with 1.10.* and check system info page for any yellow ! or red X...

Which rights should be on the root_path? There is 0755 and it gives me a red X.

Try deleting everything from the tmp/cache directory except the index.html and the .htaccess file if there is one. If that doesn't work, and if you can open the "System Information" under the Site Admin menu, copy and paste the Text Report here to show your PHP settings and server environment. Sometimes, basedir restrictions or if allow_url_fopen is Off will cause that kind of error.

Depends on the server's configurations. 0755 is acceptable for servers running PHP from a CGI process and 0777 is correct for servers running PHP from the PHP module.

Hi !

I have the same problem after upgrading from a very old version (1.5.4) to 1.11.1.
Everything works but the httpd cannot write etc...

I am pretty sure I'm not in safe mode.
When I chmod 777 my tmp folder, everything works fine except module manager. But when cache is cleared, I have to chmod 777 cache folders manually again.

I give you a little precision since I tested some stuff.
So first :
CMSMS writes files in chmod xxx
I have to change chmod xxx to 777 and it works.

Every time I edit a page or something, this happens, so I have to chmod 777 the tmp folder (and its content) again.

I saw some options where one can edit the chmod cmsms writes to, default was set to 777 and I tried 744, nothing changed.

It may be the server settings. Depending upon how PHP is served (as an Apache module, or via a CGI process) will determine how a file and directory is considered writable. I would talk to your host and ask if folder permissions are set correctly in Apache and PHP configurations.

There are some server information that looks odd:

max_execution_time: 50000
session_save_path: /tmp (1777)

the max execution time should be 60 or 90 at most unless there is some other need to resolve a problem.
The session save path should either 0777 or 0755

If PHP is served via Apache module, then writeable directories are 0777
If PHP is served via a CGI process, then writeable directories are 0755

There is an optional CMSMS config.php setting that may help in some cases.
$config['default_upload_permission'] = '644';

Next, try adding the following into your config.php file to see if there are any helpful error reports:

$config['debug'] = true;
$config['debug_to_log'] = '1';

The logged reports will be in the tmp/cache directory.

*Your host may need to fix the chmod rules set in Apache and php for new directories to fix the issue you have....

Thanks a lot for the quick reply !!!

So I tried
$config['default_upload_permission'] = '644';
first, nothing works.

$config['debug'] = true;
$config['debug_to_log'] = '1';
didn't give much more informations

my host, 1&1 is using CGI.
Where can I check the session save path value ?

I did a phpinfo but it didn't state the (077x) value, it only showed the cache folder (/tmp).

Another info : everything CMSMS writes is in chmod "xxx".
I just got a little bug by a user (because the website is still up and used a lot) who used a form (i've made up a formbuilder/formbrowser stuff) on the site in which he uploaded a picture.
The entry worked, was shown on the formbrowser page, but the pic could not be seen... Problem was the file had chmod set to value "xxx". I changed to 744 through FTP and it worked.

hmmm, check the 'Mask' settings in the Global Options. maybe it needs to be something other than 022.

Changed the umask to another value then back to 022 and now it works ! Thanks a lot !!!
