Template Modifier Error

[craven]

When trying to load templates through admin I get the following message at the top and nothing in the html box. What could be wrong?


Warning: file("/home/httpd/mysite/themes//header.html") - No such file or directory in /home/httpd/mysite/admin/template_modify.php on line 97

Warning: Bad arguments to implode() in /home/httpd/mysite/admin/template_modify.php on line 97



Also when I purchased Indexu I saw that it had multiple themes. How do I access the themes? When trying to create a user pref page the only theme available is (default)

Help....... I'm having the same problem too. This is the error that I get
Warning: fopen("/home/ebooksad/public_html/themes/default/index.html", "w+") - Permission denied in /home/ebooksad/public_html/admin/template_modify.php on line 126

Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource in /home/ebooksad/public_html/admin/template_modify.php on line 127


I have not made any changes, but when I tried and go to save file, I get the error like everyone else that's posting here on this subject.

I have checked my chmod themes/template folders and it's set to 777 (every files).

Could this be related to a newer php version running on our hosting provider. My host is running PHP/4.2.3.

The reason I suggestion this is that I had a similiar problem on another website I running using a database. When I went to change and save, I got the same error. I downloaded a patch for the script that they provided and it worked fine.

I hope this helps, because now I can't make any changes.

Thanks.

Try to change 777 to 755 for the template folder setting and the template files to 666 as some server setting does not allow 777 due to security measures.

Good luck.

BTW: Only post in one category when you have a problem unless you have two different problems

I had a similar problem with the template modifier unable to write to the html files cause the permission was set to now allow write.

I suggest chmod the file to 777 to write and edit files. Once you're done maybe chmod back to 755.

oh yeah. You should chmod the "themes" folder and all "html" files in default and classic folders.


Best of luck.

It would be more secure to use chmod 755 for the folder and 666 for the files.

Chmod 666 allows 'public', 'owner' and 'public' to read and write but not to execute which is not necessary in this case.

I always like to take precautions when it comes to web security and I always like to be more 'safe than sorry'.
