Problem with ./templates/...tpl files not being forund

[StuartBall]

I have sorted it!

I did a Google search on getcwd() and found a posting which gave an alternative function to get the current directory: dirname(__FILE__);

So I inserted the folllowing line in easymod_display_functions.php to fix $template_file so that it has a full path instead of starting with "." for the current directory.

Code: Select all

function display_template( $template_file, $variables)
{
   // fix $template_file (which is in format "./templates/<filename>.php
   // so that it has the full path
   $template_file =  dirname(__FILE__) . substr($template_file, 1, 999);

	if (!file_exists( $template_file))
	// make sure the tpl file exists
   {
	  echo "<h1><span class="ok">A required file [$template_file] is missing.  Aborting install.</span></h1>\n" ;
    }

The whole thing then ran fine and it installed correctly, just as on my development machine. I don't really feel we got to the bottom of the problem here, but at least this provides a workaround the next time a server on which getcwd() does not work comes up.

OK, thanks for that. Noted. This bug, along with a handful of others, will be fixed in the next version... whenever that'll be.
