  • I have a site that’s I’m trying to implement some advanced functionality, ie: blog and custom article archiving with categories/tags. I’ve been trying to learn PHx as it seems to be the solution that I need, unfortunately, as soon as set it up I get the following error:

    « MODx Parse Error »
    MODx encountered the following error while attempting to parse the requested resource:
    « PHP Parse Error »

    PHP error debug
    Error: Unknown(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/assets/plugins/phx/phx.parser.class.inc.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs:/tmp)
    Error type/ Nr.: Warning - 2
    File: /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/manager/includes/document.parser.class.inc.php(724) : eval()’d code
    Line: 10

    Parser timing
    MySQL: 0.0307 s (4 Requests)
    PHP: 0.0451 s
    Total: 0.0758 s

    Note: I changed the domain name to domain.com only for this posting.

    My first question I guess should be, will PHx even work on 0.9.5?
    Second, I’ve created a subdomain on this site and installed 0.9.6.3 to test out the above theory, still getting a parse error.

    Is there a safe way to upgrade the current installation without loosing data (huge site)? Will upgrading even help in this instance? I was told that PHx needs PHP5 to run correctly - is that true?

    ANY help will be greatly appreciated. I’m at a loss for what I can do to make this work correctly :’( ...other then using Wordpress tongue

      How are you setting your Resource Path in your modx configuration ?
      • I actually don’t think PHx will work in 095 now that I think about it.

        • @thfm ~ My resource paths are set, thanks for the insight!

          Hey Ryan, thanks for the message - see you at Pop Labs soon?

          What I’m thinking about doing is exporting the dB and doing a new install on a staging site and then see if it works for me there when I import the current dB structure. undecided

          • That should work Sal. Just make a copy, run the latest installer in upgrade mode, and you should be good. I sure hope to make it down again soon. smiley

            • Something else is causing my woes.

              I went into MySQL Admin and created a backup of the current site’s database. I created a new install for the site on our staging server and imported the the current site’s db, images, styles, etc. Site looks/works perfect and is upgraded, yay! BUT, BIG BUT....PHx is STILL not working and giving me this error:

                  It’s thinking that the script is in /assets..., which path is from the root of your file system, not from the root of the webspace. Do you have a base href=... meta tag in your template’s head?

                  The only thing I have in the head that calls that is my stylesheet:
                  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen,projection" title="Default" href="[(base_url)]assets/templates/layout/layout.css" />

                  • Try putting the <base href="[(site_url)]"></base> in your template head. That sets the base root for all relative paths and urls in the page.

                      Actually, you got me thinking and I went to Tools > Configuration > Interface & Features

                      I set the Resource Path & URL to the current areas (it was still set to the original site’s paths). Thanks so much for your help, everyone! I hope this was the fix smiley grin
