750RC2: Problem with pnRender fixed. Now Smarty error
 Top

  • I am trying to install PostNuke 0.750 RC2. I found the problem with pnRender that is mentioned in other posts. I downloaded the latest pninit.php (pnRender module) from CVS and the problem was solved.

    I initilized and activeted modules pnRender and Xanthia.

    Now, when I try to change to a Xanthia theme I get the next error:

    Code

    Fatal error: Smarty error: the $compile_dir '/pnRender_compiled' does not exist, or is not a directory. in c:\apache\htdocs\pn750\includes\classes\Smarty\Smarty.class.php on line 1102


    Any help?

    Thank you in advance.
  • check your pnTemp directory for correct content...

    Sorry , could you explain more? I am too new with PN icon_redface . What should I look for? What should I put there?

    Thank you very much.
  • I do have the same problem. I did a fresh install of 0.750 RC2. pnRender and Xanthia was already inilazied, but when i click on pnRender in the Adminmenu i got the same error message. If I click on Xanthia Theme in the Adminmenu, I got an Internal Servererror 500.

    I did set chmmods to 777 for pnTemp and all Subdirectories... but the errormessage still occured. What did I wrong?

    Removing Xanthia as modul was not possible. PnRender works, but when i re-install it, I got another errormessage. I will try again a fresh install... dunno what to do else.
  • check the pnTemp folder - there should be five folder (chmod 777):
    - pnRender_cache
    - pnRender_compiled
    - Xanthia_cache
    - Xanthia_compiled
    - Xanthia_Config

  • Same problem here all are set to 777.
  • please check your config.php settings for

    Code

    $pnconfig['temp'] = 'pnTemp';

  • I added the line of code and it works!

    Thanks much!
  • I upgraded from 7.2.3 to 7.5RC2, and as long as I keep the ExtraLite theme, I''m ok, but if I attempt to change to ANY other, I get the "_XA_FAILEDTOINITENGINEPostNukeSilver" error.

    I then have to go into the MySQL DB and remove the theme setting from my personal profile to get back to the ExtraLite theme.

    My PNTemp folder looks right, and my Config.php file has the "$pnconfig['temp'] = 'pnTemp';" entry.

    Any suggestions?
  • are both pnRender and Xanthia initialised and activated? is the xantia theme initialized? can you preview the xanthia theme from the xanthia administration?

  • DOH! Even before your reply, I thought to check for new modules - and sure enough, I had not noticed that pnRender and Xanthia were not activated. After initializing and activating it worked fine.

    It's the first time I upgraded a PostNuke build - I won't make that mistake again! :wink:
  • Thank you very much, larsneo.

    I checked the content and all those folders exist. There is an additional one, named "adodb". Permisions are OK.

    What should I check next?

    Thank you in advance.

  • Please, forget my previous post. I had not checked this:

    please check your config.php settings for

    $pnconfig['temp'] = 'pnTemp';



    This line was not in my config.php (probably because I copied it, according to migration instructions, from PN 726-3). I included this line and everything seems to work fine.

    Thank you very much for your help.
    Kind regards,
