Thanks again Susan for the great and amazingly fast work you did on this one.
It now works flawlessly laugh

This will sure make a strong impression on french users : few CMS are usable on Free’s hosting service ! A huge thank to you for the time invested in this... I’ll make sure to give proper credits to your amazing work.

This will also make my case stronger when promoting this CMS

Really, I am amazed !!!

It was no big deal. If you do get that message again, just go to that line in the file and fix the path to the include. If it has the ./includes/ then try it without it; if it doesn’t have it add it. Playing with the php.ini file settings just saved somebody a little typing, that’s all.

The modified files should work just fine on any host, even with the set_include_path function working.

It would be interesting, however, to find out why the set_include_path (and ini_set, I tried that as well) doesn’t work.

Thanks I had been doing some version comparison with PS Pad helping me understand your work

I PM’d you again everything was working A OK until I switched language to french.

Then I got this :

Warning: main(lang/english.inc.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/free.fr/d/8/david.molliere/manager/includes/lang/francais.inc.php on line 12

Warning: main(): Failed opening 'lang/english.inc.php' for inclusion (include_path='/var/www/free.fr/d/8/david.molliere/include:.') in /var/www/free.fr/d/8/david.molliere/manager/includes/lang/francais.inc.php on line 12

I checked but it seems you have properly changed the path for language files includes in manager/index.php :

$_lang = array();
include_once "./includes/lang/english.inc.php";
$length_eng_lang = count($_lang);
if($manager_language!="english") {
	include_once "./includes/lang/".$manager_language.".inc.php";
}

I can’t find anything useful on line 12 from the language files, I probably miss something due to my lack of skills in PHP... I am currently trying to find all includes to language files, found one in accesscontrol.inc.php, still browsing files right now...

Why is it that there is such a path problem ?
~~Could that be solved with a ReWriteBase directive in .htaccess ?~~ Dumb me, mod_rewrite is off...

Did you check to make sure the fr.inc.php file is really there?

Yes I did the francais.inc.php file is there, my idea was the file is called from another one which is not manager/index.php, that’s why I started checking other files for path to those language files...

In that case, it probably doesn’t need the ./includes/ part. Just leave it at lang/xxx.php

It was a standing joke the whole time I was working in a little computer shop in Netanya a few years ago; almost every time the phone rang, it was somebody calling to invite me for a weekend in Paris! Of course, it was more like a weekend in the shop fixing somebody’s cheapclone PC.

I always wanted to go to France; I studied French in high school, and planned to finish my degree at the Sorbonne. It never happened; what did happen is a long story. But someday I will get to Paris!

Well, anytime, I know some nice place to grab something nice for a decent price and also nice spots for wine tasting

Back on the issue : I tried to put the path back to where it was for language includes but it didn’t work. Then I realized there was something that explained why it failed with french language while it worked with english language. This is in manager/index.php @line 160 :

include_once "lang/".$manager_language.".inc.php";

Which I replaced by :

include_once "./includes/lang/".$manager_language.".inc.php";

it SHOULD work, shouldn’t it ?
But it does not...

One error has disapeared but the other one is still there :

Warning: main(lang/english.inc.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/free.fr/d/8/david.molliere/manager/includes/lang/francais.inc.php on line 12

Warning: main(): Failed opening 'lang/english.inc.php' for inclusion (include_path='/var/www/free.fr/d/8/david.molliere/include:.') in /var/www/free.fr/d/8/david.molliere/manager/includes/lang/francais.inc.php on line 12

I don’t know MODx code that well yet, I am a bit lost and I don’t understand why error reporting does not indicate where is it called from ? That would help...

~~Would changing error reporting settings to error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT be of any help ?~~ OK it did not
