Support/Comments for extra "Updater"

I just completed a fresh install of Modx, installed updater, front-end got a 500 internal error, manager was working fine. There were no errors in the modx error log, but the host tech support found this error:

[08-Jun-2015 08:24:40] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION, expecting ')' in /home3/xxxxxxx/public_html/imagespigot-2015/core/cache/includes/elements/modplugin/7.include.cache.php on line 147

When I uninstalled updater, the page started working again.

What plugin has the ID of 7?

It's not a bad idea to disable all plugins during an upgrade.

Updater has a plugin inside. Maybe it has an issue in the last release.

Hey Terry,

I can't see from your error line if the *7.include.cache.php* is one of Updater's 2 plugins. You either need to look in the manager, section plugins, which plugin has the id 7 (the number in parenthesis). Or you can copy the first lines of the suspect file - it will show the plugin cached there.

I wonder how this can happen - a parse error should show up on my IDE, and all other systems... But let's see.

I just reinstalled updater. When I view the front, this error appears in the error log on the server. Nothing in Modx error log.

[09-Jun-2015 06:32:00] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION, expecting ')' in /home3/xxxxxxx/public_html/xxxxxxxx/core/cache/includes/elements/modplugin/10.include.cache.php on line 147

Plugin10 is Update Notifier

Hmm... cannot reproduce. Can you please take a look into that cache file and send the lines around 147? There shouldn't be a parse error there.

Which PHP Version are you running on in what environment?

I deactivated all other plugins except notifier, error still occurs.

Line 147 begins with: function($v) {

/*
until now this strange reformatting is necessary because package controller
returns nonsense and we did not touch it in updater class
*/
$package_names_update = array();
$tmp = $updater->getPackagesUpdateList();
if (isset($tmp) && !is_null($tmp)) {
$packages_names_update = array_map(
function($v) {
return ($v[0]['name']."\t > ".$v[0]['signature']);
}, $tmp
);
} else {
return;
}

I just updated this on another hosted server I use for testing. This works fine. No errors.

PHP Version 5.4.40

MODX Revolution 2.3.3-pl (sdk)

PHP 5.2 does not like anonymous functions: http://php.net/manual/en/functions.anonymous.php

I just installed updater on my modx cloud server.

Modx 2.3.3pl

PHP Version 5.4.41

The front-end loads just fine here but this error appears in the modx error log.

[2015-06-09 08:51:33] (ERROR @ /paas/c1458/www/core/model/modx/modelement.class.php : 467) PHP warning: file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(updater/elements/plugins/updater.notifier.plugin.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/paas/c1458)

This appears in the dashboard widget.
