Sample Site - Fatal error

I installed BigTree locally and told the installer to put in sample content so I could start poking around and learning.

After install, the home page gives me:

Fatal error:  Class 'SampleFeatures' not found in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/BigTree2/templates/basic/home.php on line 18

As you can see, I'm using mamp. Any idea what could be happening?

Re: Sample Site - Fatal error

My best guess is that the database connection is failing. Can you make sure that the connection parameters in /templates/config.php are correct?

Re: Sample Site - Fatal error

Thanks for the quick response.

Looks alright to me:

    // Database info.
    $bigtree["config"]["db"]["host"] = "localhost";
    $bigtree["config"]["db"]["name"] = "bigtree2";
    $bigtree["config"]["db"]["user"] = "root";
    $bigtree["config"]["db"]["password"] = "root";

Re: Sample Site - Fatal error

Everything looks like it's setup properly (assuming that the password and username are correct for MySQL).  Can you verify that there is an entry in the bigtree_modules table with the title "Features"?

Re: Sample Site - Fatal error

Can you try deleting the /cache/module-class-list.btc file and see if that fixes the error?

Woo! That worked. Thanks a bunch. Could you explain what was happening?

Re: Sample Site - Fatal error

Normally it occurs when the bigtree_modules table is changed directly in MySQL without the BigTree admin doing the changes (the hard class cache file gets cached with incorrect information).


The incoming Release Candidate 2 tries to address that very issue with a bit more grace, so it's a known pain point smile  Hopefully you're all set now but feel free to ask any more questions!
