[Xerte-dev] Re: Current Issues

[Ron Mitchell]

Hi David

unfortunately my access to the techdis install is restricted to my home IP
and also is being used for other things daily so not a good environment for
testing and changing things.

 

I just searched my local moodle 1.9 code for Zend_Locale and nothing found.
There are lots of references to Zend_search though.

 

I can probably create a copy of a xampp with this problem existing to run
from usb stick if that would help anyone?

 

Going to shut down for the night now though - can't see the wood for the
trees again. :-(

 

Cheers

Ron

It gets even more complicated :-(

 

Unfortunately it's not as simple as saying the conflict doesn't exist with
moodle 2 or later because I just tested with a moodle 2.3x config and the
problem/conflict exists with that too.

 

My xampp php is 5.3.5

Techdis server is 5.3.2

 

On my xampp I can reproduce the issue with the latest svn code and unchanged
functions.php with the following moodle configs

1.9

2.3

but no conflict with 2.2

 

Anyone got a time machine! ;-)

 

 

 

Are you able to give someone (hopefully technical) remote access to the
server?

 

Random guesses:

 

1. It's an issue with PHP+APC - I've seen it output blank pages before with
no error being logged (especially PHP 5.4.x) .. restarting Apache will fix
the problem; normally something will be logged though. Upgrading PHP/APC may
help - or switching to use e.g. XCache.

 

2. Your error reporting settings are somehow unhelpful, or moodle/something
is changing the error reporting settings so nothing useful is being logged.

 

3. Moodle could perhaps be using/bundling their own version of the Zend
Framework - and if they're explicitly loading Zend_Locale (or whatever) as
well as how XOT is then there could be a clash - one option may be to wrap
some of the require calls for Zend_* in if(!class_exists('Zend_Locale')) {
require_once ('Zend/Locale.php'); } etc.

 

 

David.
