problem with smarty

Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "../smarty/index.tpl" in c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\nhs\smarty\Smarty.class.php on line 1095

This is the error get when I try to use smart on a tpl file I have created. Both the index.tpl and the smarty class are in the same folder(../smarty/). I am running it locally but want to simulate how it will work when I upload it to my webserver so have not changed the php.ini or anything.

This is the file...
<?
include('../smarty/Smarty.class.php');
// create object
$smarty = new Smarty;

// assign some content. This would typically come from
// a database or other source, but we'll use static
// values for the purpose of this example.
$smarty->assign('name', 'george smith');
$smarty->assign('address', '45th & Harris');

// display it
$smarty->display('../smarty/index.tpl');

?>

i think as u are working in windows platform , u should change ur paths accordingly, so instead of using /smarty/index.tpl use something like \\smarty\\index.tpl

on a side note , for development stuff with php , u should use apache as ur webserver instead of IIS on which u will most of the time have the path problems.

funamentalist

in smarty_conn.php , these are the settings to look into

$smarty->template_dir = MY_DIR.'templates';
$smarty->compile_dir = MY_DIR.'templates_c';
$smarty->config_dir = MY_DIR.'configs';

This file does not exist in the version I have. Although the 3 variables are in in the main smarty file but do not work. I think it is an iis permissions thing. any ideas?

funamentalist

hmm i dont think its a permission thing as ur working on windows. what are the values of the

$smarty->template_dir = MY_DIR.'templates';
$smarty->compile_dir = MY_DIR.'templates_c';
$smarty->config_dir = MY_DIR.'configs';

in ur main smarty file ?
if
$smarty->template_dir = MY_DIR.'templates'; is same then the path to ur tpl should be
$smarty->display('index.tpl');

with $smarty->display('../smarty/index.tpl'); ur script is looking for index.tpl on the root folder

can u tell me :
1 : path to ur templates from the root
2 : $smarty->template_dir = MY_DIR.?
3 : the location of ur php script

I my smarty.class.php I have variables

var $template_ = 'templates';
var $compile_ = 'templates_c';
var $config_ = 'configs';

which are part of the smarty class. My structure is this

smarty is the top folder

then I have files

smarty compiler class
config file class
smarty class

also in the same directory (smarty) I have the 3 folders

'templates' - caontains index.tpl
'templates_c';
'configs';
'internals'
'pluggins'

I have also moved the basic index.php file into this smarty folder and now it points to

$smarty->display('templates/index.tpl');

This should all be ok but now I get this error

Call to undefined function name()

funamentalist

move the file index.php on the root and change

$smarty->display('templates/index.tpl');
to
$smarty->display('index.tpl');

should work

Have given it another go. This is the error now seems like windows has it locked or something.

funamentalist

hmm i think ur getting that error as ur trying to access a file outside ur sites root directory. which is 'ssn' i think? i think if u want to use smarty with that site in IIS , you should put hte smarty directory in ssn , rather than having it in seperate directory/site.

i am not too sure about the IIS config but i think it works but creating sites with virtual directories , so from what i can see 'ssn' and 'smarty' are 2 different sites and thats why its giving you the permission error , as u cannt access files in other sites.... thats my understanding of the situation , may be someone else can shed some more light on that issue.
