Topic: How is ‘path_to_root’ set? Or how to reset the working directory?

How is ‘path_to_root’ set? Or how to reset the working directory?


I am writing a small extension to add some additional fields to customers.


So sales/manage/customers.php
Is now modules/additional_fields/manage/ customers.php


File:  /additional_fields/manage/customers.php

Line 13: $path_to_root = "../..";
Is changed to:-
Line 13: $path_to_root = "../../..";

The necessary code is added for the additional fields which work as expected.


However, clicking on the Transactions tab the following error (and 4 others similar appear):-

include_once(../../includes/db_pager.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in file: /sales/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php at line 14
/sales/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php:14: include_once()
modules/additional_fields/manage/add_customers.php:449: include_once(' /sales/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php')

And

include_once(): Failed opening '../../includes/db_pager.inc' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:\php\pear') in file: sales\inquiry\customer_inquiry.php at line 14
sales\inquiry\customer_inquiry.php:14:     include_once()
modules\additional_fields\manage\add_customers.php:450:     include_once('sales\inquiry\customer_inquiry.php')

(Similar errors appear on the Sales Orders tab)

If the path_to_root in customer_inquiry.php is changed to ../../.. then it works, but obviously now I cannot access Sales -> Customer Transaction Inquiry as numerous fatal errors appear.


How do I reset the working directory?

Use a different variable for your extension's path to root and it will lapse after it's scope vanishes.

Re: How is ‘path_to_root’ set? Or how to reset the working directory?

Changed path_to_root to new_path_to_root

Now getting the following fatal errors:-

Recreated the original variable with original path ($path_to_root = "../..";) whilst keeping path to root in file as new_path_to_root ../../.. but it seems session.inc takes its path from the path used to access it (if that makes sense - path to root is not defined in session.inc)

Re: How is ‘path_to_root’ set? Or how to reset the working directory?

Looks like you downloaded the FAMods into a separate folder and did not integrate it with your FA core.

FAMods is just the name i choose for the root dir.

Re: How is ‘path_to_root’ set? Or how to reset the working directory?

Then make sure that the original path to root variable also gets passed on as well but as it's original value.

Re: How is ‘path_to_root’ set? Or how to reset the working directory?

Can also confirm I was using:-

$new_path_to_root = "../../.."; //new path for includes in customers.php

And

$path_to_root = "../.."; //Old path to pass in session

It seems that once the path is set in the session it remains the same – is this correct?

I installed on lamp server as well, this did provide slightly different faults:-

include_once(../../includes/db_pager.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in file: /sales/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php at line 14
/sales/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php:14:     include_once()
/modules/additional_fields/manage/add_customers.php:451:     include_once(' /sales/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php')
include_once(): Failed opening '../../includes/db_pager.inc' for inclusion (include_path='.:/opt/alt/php56/usr/share/pear:/opt/alt/php56/usr/share/php') in file: /sales/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php at line 14
/sales/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php:14:     include_once()
/modules/additional_fields/manage/add_customers.php:451:     include_once(' /sales/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php')

The pear / php path is doubled up isn’t it?

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%


EDIT

this maybe interesting

I changed php ver to 7.0 (Also tried 7.1... same result)

and the fault changed to:-

(include_path='.:/opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/usr/share/pear')

No mention of .....share/php??????

Tried changing php ver on wamp, no change in errors - so this maybe a red herring?

Re: How is ‘path_to_root’ set? Or how to reset the working directory?

Please put a copy of the customer_inquiry.php to additional_fields/inquiry/
Modify the $path_to_root of new customer_inquiry.php to the same as of add_customer.php.
Then change the include path in additional_fields/manage/add_customer.php to:
include_once('modules/additional_fields/inquiry/customer_inquiry.php')

Don't need to change anything in the core
