Guest Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 O.k., was working late on things last night, everything was fine when I turned off my browser and went to bed. Trying to view the shop today, and I get this: Fatal error: Failed opening required 'includes/languages/.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in /home/reefnut/public_html/reefshop/includes/application_top.php on line 285 I fixed a problem on my own last night, but this one I do not even understand where to start experimenting (following backing everything up ;) ) Any help?

Guest Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 did you backup your database last night prior to gooing to bed? if so, try restoring it via phpmyadmin or mysql connector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 No, I made backups of the 'includes/configure.php' and 'admin/includes/configure.php' because that is what I was working on. On the site itself I just removed some countries and changed the main display text according to one of the articles here. IOW, no I didn't, didn't think the minor changes were that big of a change...although I'm sure they are the famous last words of a noob. <_< Can I run a fix with phpmyadmin or something?

Guest Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 I now how to run REPAIR TABLE on phpmyadmin, had to do it for my PHPBB forum once before too. However, I don't know what (or if) table to fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomThumb Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 In the admin area, can you get in to the languages section under Localizations? This information is in the languages table. while (!succeed) {try()}; GMT -6:00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamal_k_sahoo@yahoo.com Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 It is due to register_globals Off in your php.ini file. set it to register_globals On. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Thanks for the tips, I looked through all the files in my catalog and php.ini is not there. So....this means it evidently is part of the database somehow? Can you lead a bit further as to how to get to it? I have phpmyadmin...I cannot log onto any page of my catalog or the admin tool.

etepalusip Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Hey Hoops, Have you tried changing 'includes/application_top.php on line 285' : require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '.php'); to require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . 'english' . '.php'); ? Assuming your /includes/languages/english.php is still intact Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Just tried changing that, it simply moves the error to a different line (33). :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etepalusip Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Did you edit english.php with the file manager?????This looks like you have extra line at the bottom of english.php common with the file manager. Suggestion, pull english.php down and edit in a php editor and reload, overwriting the original file. (Quoting Bloodshoteyes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 To my knowledge, I didn't edit english.php at all. The only thing I edited were the configure.php files in the catalog and admin section with my website and database information. When I started editing the catalog, I simply replaced the osCommerce picture with my own and editing some of the wording on the front according to the directions on the generic catalog index page. Everything was fine after all my editing, I even showed the progress of the shop to my girlfriend. I cruised around the catalog a bit thinking of ideas, and then turned the computer off and went to bed. When I went to check the catalog during free time at work...the fatal error was up. I figure something happened with a table between that time period. I have had a similar error before on a PHPBB forum I run, but with that the table with the error showed up on phpmyadmin. I find no such tables as in the different wording of this particular error. I am trying as well to set up a mySQL manager program for a potentially more comprehensive view of the tables, but that has not gone very well either. At some point, if I reach a dead end, can I simply reinstall over this...or ask my host to purge the recent osCommerce database submission and start over?

Guest Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 It is due to register_globals Off in your php.ini file.set it to register_globals On. FWIW, by creating a phpinfo.php file and uploading it I have been able to view my settings. register_globals is already set to "On". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 Nevermind, started again from scratch. Thanks for the effort and suggestions...who knows what exactly the database problem was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 I dont blame ya there...but your original post, looked to be a basic problem with php.exe (not a script problem on your part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 Indeed, must have been something like that. Things all around are running much smoother with the new install. (famous last words...):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
