Hi.
There seem to be some similar threads to this, but not identical. I've been using smarty for some time now, and i recently changed jobs. So i gets to the new place and says "hey - you guys should use smarty, it's great!!!" And it stops working...... 
Ok, so the problem seems to be that the compiled templates are just not doing anything. I've set up the /include directory, set the path to include the Smarty files (using ini_set() and by defining SMARTY_DIR), and the system seems to work ok. The templates_c/ directory has had some %%blah folders written in to it, inside which live 2 php files, corresponding to my 2 templates (i.e. data_list.tpl --> data_list.tpl.php). Only problem is that the .tpl.php files have no code in them, only a php coment in saying when they were compiled, and which template they were compiled from!!! I can't see that that i've done anything different here than the last time i used smarty, and smarty can obviously find the include/, templates/ and templates_c/ directories, orelse i wouldn't be getting this far!!!
Does anyone recognise this problem??? I'm reaching the end of my imagination here, my next attempt is going to be trying some older versions of smarty.
Thanks peeps!

I don't think i use any pre or post filters, unless there are some set by default.
However, i've managed to get my code working by downgrading smarty to an earlier version - version 2.4.1. I simply downloaded the older source, dropped the smarty class, compiler and config_file class into the include folder on my test site, and bingo!!!! I'm not sure what has happened here, but maybe this is a bug that has been introduced between 2.4.1 and 2.5.0????? If it's any use i could post some tarballs of my work to demonstrate this problem. If i've got time today, i'll have another go at getting 2.5.0 going, and post my results here.
Cheers!

| Sounds like your template contains syntax that is breaking in the new compiler. Have you tracked it down to a particular template? Do simple templates load? |

Ok, i've tried a simple template with 2.5.0, and it works ok with that. The syntax i'm using is quite involved, so maybe it's that which is breaking it. Here is a sample of the complex smarty syntax i'm using:
| Code: |
//in the PHP page:
$smarty->assign_by_ref("dlist", $dlist);
//in the template:
{section name=outer loop=$dlist->index}
{if $smarty.section.outer.index is odd}
<tr bgcolor="#cccccc">
{else}
<tr>
{/if}
<td align="left">
{$dlist->list[outer]->student_snames}, {$dlist->list[outer]->student_fnames}
</td>
<td align="center">
???
</td>
{foreach from=$dlist->list[outer]->student_grades item=bingy}
<td align="center">
{$bingy}
</td>
{/foreach}
</tr>
{/section}
|
The $dlist variable is an object, which holds an array of other objects. $index is a member variable of the 'parent' object, which is an integer holding the number of 'child'objects in the list. The $list variable is the array member variable of the 'parent' class. I'm not sure that this is the best possible OO practice, but this is really just demo code.
Also, in the PHP page, i use the 'fetch' method of smarty to execute the inner template (the one with the complex stuff in it) then pass the resulting variable called $content to the 'outer' template for display.
Ok, better get back to work now!!!

phew, that is fairly involved.
Are any errors being generated? Turn debug mode on and ensure that error reporting is at E_ALL. I'm wondering if you are getting a specific error or simply a blank page. |

|

So strange, i feel the confusion of blingbling!!, i've been happilly using smarty since 2.3, and now because of php5 i've opted to take the wise-man's path and start developing on linux. (Mandrake 9.1 with Apache 1.3.29 and PHP5-b2 Infact), previously i was developing on WindowsXP (Professional Edition, with PHP-4.3.2 and Apache-2.something).
Ok, the scenario is... this is my webroot directory structure:
| Code: |
[lee@phod cmf1.0]$ ls /mnt/win_d/htdocs -R
config.inc.php* cmf1.0.php* cmf1.0/
/mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0:
cmf.sqlite* includes/ includes.php* inits/ inits.php* templates/
/mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0/includes:
functions.inc.php* GhostFS.inc.php* libs/ SQLBasedDataSource.inc.php*
/mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0/includes/libs:
Config_File.class.php* plugins/ Smarty_Compiler.class.php*
debug.tpl* Smarty.class.php*
/mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0/includes/libs/plugins:
block.textformat.php* modifier.count_paragraphs.php*
function.assign_debug_info.php* modifier.count_sentences.php*
function.assign.php* modifier.count_words.php*
function.counter.php* modifier.date_format.php*
function.cycle.php* modifier.debug_print_var.php*
...etc...
/mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0/inits:
ghost_fs.init.php* sql_bds.init.php* template.init.php*
/mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0/templates:
default/
/mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0/templates/default:
default.css* test.tpl*
|
ok, and obviously cmf1.0.php is what i call (it has an `action` paramert i pass through _GET to make it do stuff).... anyhow, the templates are compiling...or rather the "compiled" files are being created but ... only with the smarty comment on them...also..if i erase everything from the .templates_c/ directory when i refresh cmf1.0.php i recieve these errors:
| Code: |
Warning: chmod() [function.chmod]: Operation not permitted in /mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0/includes/libs/Smarty.class.php on line 2062
Warning: touch() [function.touch]: Utime failed: Operation not permitted in /mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0/includes/libs/Smarty.class.php on line 1575
|
im not 100% sure if these are caused by php5 (i realise its still an unstable beta) or by a smarty bug, or indeed by a permissions problem - which (as far as what i know about linux goes) is inconcievable since both templates/ and .templates_c/ are chmod 777 - Apache is running as root, although im logged in as "lee", myself...im quite stumped and dont relish the idea of returning to either Windows or an earlier version of PHP.
Incase its any use ... here are the dumps of both the pre-compilation file (test.tpl) and the post-compile one too:
Pre:
| Code: |
<html>
<head>
<title>{$cmf_links.News}Test</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="green">
Testing
</body>
</html>
|
Post:
| Code: |
<?php /* Smarty version 2.5.0, created on 2003-11-09 01:02:59
compiled from /mnt/win_d/htdocs/cmf1.0/templates/test.tpl */
?>
|
Just as a final note, i've tried 2.4.1 and 2.4.2, i still get that same chmod() and touch() errors, and still nothing gets compiled into the file except the comment (ALso...just so you know i did clean out the . templates_c/) before i re-tried the different versions |
