This question may be related to a resolved thread.

I’m trying to run the Server Wizard to check compatibility on a client’s host.

phpinfo() confirms that PHP 5.2 is installed and running, but dialing up the wizard produces only this PHP error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function show_error() in D:\Inetpub\...\ee_wizard\index.php on line 421

According to a prior thread, this issue has been solved before, but that thread doesn’t mention how. Any suggestions?

Hi Michael,

I am sorry you’ve run into this!

show_error() is a function in CodeIgniter, which is not supposed to be required for the Server Wizard.

Can you open the index.php file in the Server Wizard and change line 421 from

show_error('Unable to load the requested file: '.$_ci_file);

to read

echo('Unable to load the requested file: '.$_ci_file);

That should get us around the problem.

Cheers,

Hi Michael,

Dan asked me to take a look as well.  The echo would eliminate the error you’re running into (and I’ll fix up the downloadable file with an exit() asap).  However- that won’t address the core problem, which is that the script can’t find a file it’s supposed to be able to find. 

It’s possible something got mangled in FTP- what I’d do is delete the existing server wizard folder and upload a fresh copy.  Unzip it- go in and upload the entire ee_wizard folder. 

If it’s still a problem- editing that line to the echo as Dan suggests or

exit('Unable to load the requested file: '.$_ci_file);

will show us the path it’s using to try and load the file.  Unless something odd is going on- it should have no problem finding it.
