Hi,
We have been running EE (1.6.7) for some time now, with very few problems.
On sunday I had a new article go live, and the article page shows a php parse error :(

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/uncommon/domains/uncommonhelp.me/public_html/backstage/core/core.functions.php(637) : eval()‘d code on line 211

After a lot of testing I have discovered that I can not add any new articles to a certain category (all other articles in that category are working fine).
If I create a test article and put it into any other category, it displays ok, if I put it into the problem cat, it throws a parse error :(
Have attached the template debug for the same test page but for a good cat and one for the bad cat, the shorter one is the one with the parse error.
It appears to glitch at line 143 (in the bad log, equiv line in good log is 144)
This appears to be the ‘Processing Advanced Conditionals’
Both good and bad are using the same template.

Any pointers would be great thanks
If any other info/files needed let me know 😊

Thanks

Matt

Sorry it wont let me attach the good log file , so here it is ziped

Uncommon Knowledge,

That usually indicates that there’s a syntax error involving a conditional in that template. I’d also highly recommend upgrading to 1.6.9 as soon as possible.

is there any characters that could appear in a post that would cause this?
As every other post in that category is fine :(

Nothing has been changed in the template, and there dosnt appear to be any conditionals that relate to this category in the template :(

Is there any extra logging that can be turned on to get a more detailed error log on what is causing the problem?  I dont have ssh access to this server (Server is Linux and apache)

As far as i can tell i have made sure that there are no ‘non-standard’ characters in the post.

Matt

Matt,

You are using one one the more complicated methods to pull content in your template using quite a few extensions.

Can you create a blank template and try a regular weblog:entries tag with some category tags to see if it renders without errors?

Just add the following to the template and nothing else

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="blog" entry_id="12"}
{title}
{categories}{category_name}{/categories}
{/exp:weblog:entries}
