    SOLVED GANTRY5_THEME_LOADING_FAILED when initializing Joomla externally.

    Posted 9 years 11 months ago
    • So I have an external file that tries to initialize Joomla like this:

      if (!defined('_JEXEC')) {
	$joomlaPath = dirname(__FILE__)."/../../../..";
	define('_JEXEC', 1);
	
	if (file_exists($joomlaPath . '/defines.php')) {
		include_once $joomlaPath . '/defines.php';
	}
	
	if (!defined('_JDEFINES')) {
		define('JPATH_BASE', $joomlaPath);
		require_once JPATH_BASE.'/includes/defines.php';
	}
	
	require_once JPATH_BASE.'/includes/framework.php';
	// Instantiate the application.
	$app = JFactory::getApplication('site');
	// Initialise the application.
	$app->initialise();
	jimport('joomla.filesystem.file');
}

      This works if I'm not using Gantry/RT template, but when I do, it throws a blank page with the error "GANTRY5_THEME_LOADING_FAILED". How can I initialize/include Gantry, presumably to resolve this problem?

    • As Gantry 5 is a release candidate and you are not a currently subscribed member - please could you ask your question in the Gantry 5 git chat https://gitter.im/gantry/gantry5 - Our developers are there and I'm sure they will b e able to help you.

    • Found the problem. Changing the line $app->initialise(); to $app->execute(); solves it. This isn't ideal though, since it means Joomla has to run all published plugins, even if they're not relevant, which will likely require more resources to load the page.
