Error *fixed*

The upgrade of RavenNuke 2.50.00 went fine and I deleted the Installation folder, then went to my site. I have this error:

Code:




Fatal error: Call to a member function sql_query() on a non-object in /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/index.php on line 43

First time I've ever seen an error when upgrading RavenNuke. Where's it coming from? Thanks.

Try to re upload the RN 2.5 index.php file.

I did. Still the error. I think it is looking for the Tricked Out News News module, so I re-uploaded that. Still the error.

This is lines 43 to 49 of the RN 2.5 index.php

Code:




$result = $db->sql_query('SELECT `main_module` FROM `' . $prefix . '_main`');


if ($result) {


   $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result, SQL_ASSOC);


   if (isset($row['main_module'])) {


      $name = $row['main_module'];


   } else {


      $name = '';

It seems to be looking for the main module, the one set as the index module.

Have you made any changes to the install files that came with 2.5?
Did you change anything with your original install?

Posted: Sun Jan 22, 2012 10:19 pm

No. I added defines to language files for Sommaire but that is it. Otherwise the install files were out of the box and the installation went fine, tables were updated with no errors. The only error is in the index.php.

What version of PHP are you running?

Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 12:24 am

You need to re download and upload again. You have some major problems as I am getting Fatal error: Call to undefined function check_html() when trying to go to your account.

I'm running the same version my webhost is, PhP 5.2. I'm also getting an errror in admin.php

Code:




Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_lang() in /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/admin.php on line 42

I have d/led it and I'll try re-u/ling it. Sigh.

I re-d/led and re-u/led the RavenNuke 2.5 files.
I'm still getting the error in index.php as well as in admin.php.

I've never seen errors like these.

Just as an fyi, he hosts with me Smile

. I haven't looked at anything but try downloading the other file. In other words, if you're using the .7z file, try using the .rar file. I'm just trying to eliminate possible causes. If that doesn't help, then try a fresh installation as a test. If that works then you know the problem is in your upgrade process.

I d/led the .rar first and those are the files I u/led initially. Then after the problem occurred I d/led and u/led the .7z files with the same errors. At least I think I u/led the files. While FZ was working I took a break and my girlfriend logged me off and I got confused. I will try a fresh install now that I'm awake lol

Still no luck.

southern, would you be willing to give me temporary FTP access?

Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 1:15 pm

Sure, I'd be willing. I just now gave it to nuken though. I'm waiting to see what he finds.

Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 1:25 pm

I'm sure Nuken will figure it out. If not let me know.

Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 1:47 pm

I think I have it fixed. The mainfile.php was blank for some reason.

Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 11:56 pm

The mainfile and a lot of other files up and down directories, but I replaced every 0 byte file I found and it looks great. The errors were not the fault of RavenNuke 2.5 but my own fault for not verifying files. Sad

Thanks, nuken, for the help. And thanks for the offer of help, Palbin. Smile
