Playa needs updating.. can you do that next?

Sue,
This is done. Incidentally, I just did a brand spanking new install of 1.6.9 for another client and I’m seeing the same error w/ Pages in the Control Panel. Literally, new install of EE, activate the Pages Module, and blam…error message at the top of the page.

Hmmm.. no .htaccess, that sort of thing? I just did a localhost install of 1.6.9 and can’t replicate the problem you’re having. You didn’t reuse the database container did you?

Fresh install, no .htaccess, index.php in the System Administration > General Configuration form. Still showing error.

What can you tell me about who you’re hosting with?

Hosting company is Site5 - http://www.site5.com.

No issues w/ EE until 1.6.9 upgrade. But that doesn’t account for the fail on the fresh install.

Do you have any actual pages on either site?  I can’t spot why you’d be getting that error- but try editing mcp.pages.php around line 135:

if ($pages === FALSE OR OR sizeof($pages) == 0)
change to
if ($pages === FALSE OR isset($pages['uris']) == FALSE OR sizeof($pages['uris']) == 0)

I do on the site that originally prompted this request. I’ll try the recommended edit and let you know how it goes.

Sounds good. We’ll be here 😊

Here’s a quick and dirty hack if your Pages Module is mission critical and you need to use the LG .htaccess Generator:

// Around line 557 in system/extensions/ext.lg_htaccess_generator_ext.php,
// Add this:
$pages = $pages[1];
// Above this:
$page_roots = array();

This is a nasty hack. I’m sorry if it’s offensive. 😉

Thanks Adam.

Trumpet, keep us posted.

Okay, so the latest is, the fix Robin suggested did manage to eliminate the error in the pages module, but now the issue is that the actual pages I’m creating aren’t showing up at all when I select the pages tab. They are in fact being created in the weblog I selected, but they just don’t get displayed in the module. I mean, I suppose this isn’t really that big of a deal. I can work around it, just hate to pass this along to my client.

I’ve heard of Structure before. Is that comparable? Any other thoughts on a work around?

I am not able to replicate, so this is beginning to look like a server issue, perhaps. Do you have access to a different server where you could try? What version of PHP are you running?

Structure is a commercial third-party add-on. It is comparable to the Pages module although goes quite a bit beyond it in scope.

We’ve updated Structure to be 1.6.9 compatible. The site_pages array, which both Pages and Structure (and a few others) run off of, was updated in 1.6.9 and required reworking by all addons using it. Feel free to check out Structure—if you haven’t used it before, you most likely really like it (http://buildwithstructure.com). Otherwise, i’m sure someone will find a Pages fix for you.

Thanks for the info Jack. Did you have a chance to review Ingmar’s advice Trumpet?
