Guest Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I was testing some order processing. I logged out of the admin area and when I tried to log back in i get this following error Warning: require(/includes/classes/action_recorder.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /hsphere/local/home/c318704/demostore.mysite.com/adminarea/includes/classes/action_recorder.php on line 13 Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '/includes/classes/action_recorder.php' (include_path='.:/hsphere/shared/apache/libexec/php5ext/php/') in /hsphere/local/home/c318704/demostore.mysite.com/adminarea/includes/classes/action_recorder.php on line 13 can anyone help? I have double, triple checked and the file in question does exist. I tried giving it 755 and 777 permissions with no success. Currently the store front works fine. I just cannot access the admin area. Thanks, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The error doesn't lie .. the file isn't there, have you checked the path carefully?

Guest Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 the error is lying .. I even did a find / -name "action_recorder.php" and it returned the correct location for the file.

Guest Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 so I tried to login today and got the same message as before. here are my config settings define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'); define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_CATALOG); define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/'); define('DIR_WS_ICONS', DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icons/'); define('DIR_WS_CATALOG_IMAGES', DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'images/'); define('DIR_WS_INCLUDES', 'includes/'); the only way I can think of to get rid of this would be to change define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'); to define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', ''); when I do that.. i get the following error.

Guest Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I believe I got it sorted again. define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); needed to be change to a hard code of the document root define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/hsphere/local/home/c318704/mysite.com/'); hopefully this fixes it.

♥FWR Media Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 any suggestions? Yes, whoever is manually doctoring these files should stop as they don't know what they are doing. define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT . DIR_WS_CATALOG); Is obviously wrong even without seeing DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT which I'll assume ends with a / The DIR_FS_CATALOG constant should contain the full path to the shop root as created when it was installed. In the absense of knowing the paths I would hazard a guess that just DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT will suffice, so long as that one has been entered correctly. alternatively you could use .. define( 'DIR_FS_CATALOG', realpath( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/../../' ) . '/' ); Which is better than the hardcoded path.

Guest Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 ok .. well .. it is fixed but I will respond to your post anyway. DIR_FS_CATALOG .. DOES contain the FULL PATH to the shop root. the shop is installed in the main directory. In this case there is no CATALOG folder. the store resides on a subdomain called store.mysite.com to top it all off. NO ONE MANUALLY CHANGED ANYTHING the only thing that was changed was the name of the admin directory. and after that change was made it was all working fine. after a few hours, the admin side of the site just stopped working. I contacted the hosting company and they told me to get support from the application because all the files are where they are supposed to be. Yes, whoever is manually doctoring these files should stop as they don't know what they are doing. define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT .

Now .. I will admit that I personally feel that is a SERVER configuration problem and has NOTHING to do with osCommerce. so the way around it was to hard code the document root into config file.

♥FWR Media Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Chris what you are or are not lying about I'm not interested. The clear facts to sumarise this horrible experience of free support. You seem to be on some sort of mission to prove there was zero fault at your end. 1) It was nothing to do with the osCommerce script, fact. 2) the PHP error was of course accurate, it was a user error related to paths, the path being wrong the file did not exist at that location. 3) The configure files had been incorrectly doctored/or just plain old and this is why you had an error in the first place. 4) Fact, it's a very old configure.php file and NOT of version 2.3.1. In fact this is the file header from the ( old now ) RC2a /* $Id: configure.php 1739 2007-12-20 00:52:16Z hpdl $ osCommerce, Open Source E-Commerce Solutions http://www.oscommerce.com Copyright (c) 2003 osCommerce Released under the GNU General Public License */ See the 2003?

Chris I owe you an apology. You were talking about the blank file prior to installation which looks as you have stated. The installed file however looks entirely different. The confusion was that your "blank file" seems not to have been populated with the data as expected. Oh well .. guess I take the "dork award " for this evening. The file should still have been populated by the install script, wonder why it wasn't, did you perhaps take the raw file and just add in some bits? that would explain it.

Guest Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Ok .. it looks like it was a permissions problem... I just ran an install in a different directory and chmod -R 777 the entire dir to test it. when that install ran .. it created the configure.php file as you specified. weird that osc didn't give all kinds of errors when it couldn't write to the file. anyway .. fortunately this is a new store with no data in it, yet. just some heavy front end customizations. I am going to try and re-install but before running the install i am going to force 777 permission on the config file. hopefully that will do the trick ... well at least I have something to do this weekend.
