    Enabling/disabling Cache and Gzip caused errors

    Posted 13 years 3 months ago
    • Using Joomla 1.7.4, Modulus template

      Being towards near the end of developing our site, I turned on Gantry cache and gzip and the cache and gzip in Global Config, having read this: www.rockettheme.com/forum/index.php?f=15..._v=viewtopic#p566242

      Having enabled cache and gzip in both Gantry template and Global Config, I had the following errors:

      - In Extension Manager on "Manage" page:
      Error loading component: com_installer, 1

      - On Front End login page:
      Error * JLIB_APPLICATION_ERROR_COMPONENT_NOT_LOADING

      Disabling cache and gzip in Global Config fixed it. I also disabled the Gantry ones too. But why did it happen at all? If it's going to cause problems, which of the caches/gzips should I use when we do finally go live?

      Seeing the Refresh Cache button in Extension Manager, I thought maybe I should try it... that threw up the following error:
      Failed loading XML file
      /home/domain/public_html/components/com_gantry/gantry.xml
      XML: failed to load external entity "/home/domain/public_html/components/com_gantry/gantry.xml"
      Failed loading XML file
      /home/domain/public_html/components/com_gantry/gantry.xml
      XML: failed to load external entity "/home/domain/public_html/components/com_gantry/gantry.xml"
      XML: failed to load external entity "/home/domain/public_html/components/com_gantry/gantry.xml"


      What does this mean?

    • This has caused an even bigger error than I originally realised, literally.

      I received an automated email to tell me I was running out of space on my webspace. On checking, there's an error log in the root, which is over 500 MB in size! It is full of nothing but 1000s of lines with the following:
      [30-Jan-2012 16:56:55] PHP Warning:  readdir() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/domain/public_html/libraries/joomla/cache/storage/file.php on line 501
      The time co-incides exactly with when what I wrote in my original post above happened. So, it seems that enabling (or later disabling) the caches caused this problem. Whether it was Gantry's or Joomla's cache, I have no idea.

      What do I do about it? How do I get rid of this huge error log? Which cache do I therefore set - or not - when I go live in a day or two?

      This is URGENT, please help.

    • I need to enable the cache at least. As there is obviously a template error here with the reference to "gantry.xml" and to having tried the Gantry cache and gzip, I'd be grateful if I may please have some support here?

    • I've been thinking about turning on Gzip but it seems that a lot of people are having problems, that's not good. Getting no answer from rockettheme is not good either.

      Yes, thanks, I read it already, as I said and linked to in my first post of this topic :) And I followed it, and ended up with those errors where nobody seems able to help :(

      Having searched and searched this forum for literally HOURS, I came across some topics with similar problems - each unanswered...

      As I'm now running a site with a cache that's disabled because of this, what am I - and the others here with the same or similar problem - to do?

      :?: :?: :?:

      we'd given up on caching and zip a long time ago, it causes too many problems.
      Is that both Gantry's and Joomla's caches or only Gantry's? Or are you saying you run your sites without any caching at all because of the problems?

      Re help, thanks, I wasn't expecting you yourself to offer help, I guess I was hoping that maybe there might be some tiny tiny, albeit apparently remote, chance someone from RT might do so instead...
