Random block errors when gallery is open.

I get a error msg, above the block, with no photo chosen in the block when the gallery is opened. I have the block on the left side and the gallery opens in the center.

the error is

Warning: fopen("/block-random.cache", "r") - No such file or directory in /home/*******/public_html/BlackNova/html/modules/gallery/platform/fs_unix.php on line 53

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/*******/public_html/BlackNova/html/modules/gallery/random_support.php on line 230

I had recived this same error all the time but I hand created a block-random.cach and changed the session_var to $session as was suggested in another post.

any help in getting this to work would be most appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Ok after searching around some I found a post from another user that had the same problem, I followed the fix action that was given I.E. changing cache from 0 to 1. Now the pic works in the gallery as its supposed to!

but now I get another error msg

Warning: fopen("/block-random.cache", "w") - Permission denied in /home/*******/public_html/BlackNova/html/modules/gallery/platform/fs_unix.php on line 53

hmmm...sounds like you don't have the file in a directory writeable by the webserver. make sure you chmod 0777 your albums directory.

what's your website address?
what web server is being run, under what OS?
it looks like you have a rather recursive directory structure, with an additional HTML directory underneath your user's public_html directory. make sure that all your paths are properly specified.

The error msg has changed....I didnt change anything but the error changed to this

Warning: fopen(/block-random.cache) [function.fopen]: failed to create stream: Permission denied in /home/*******/public_html/BlackNova/html/modules/gallery/platform/fs_unix.php on line 53

hmm..what are the top couple of lines from your block-random.php and random-support.php files? (you can PM them to me to keep path info private).

also, what version of gallery / phpnuke are you using?

I fixed this problem by:

In block-random.php find:

Code: ›
define(CACHE_FILE, $gallery->app->albumDir . "/block-random.cache");

Change to:

Code: ›
define(CACHE_FILE, "/path/to/gallery/albums/block-random.cache");

Worked for me! Very Happy

hmmm..that's interesting. the $gallery variable should provide that path information to you. i've never heard of this type of problem cropping up before. glad you found a fix Smile
