Support Request Support ⇒ Fixed Footer Navbar crashes after update

[LuMaReMa]

Your phpBB Version:
Your phpBB Type: Standard phpBB
Extensions installed: Yes
Your knowledge: Beginner

What have you done before the problem was there?
I've updated the forum from 3.3.5 to 3.3.10
As usually, I first try the new version in my testforum.
When the ext is activated the following errormessage appears:

Fatal error: Uncaught Twig\Error\LoaderError: Looks like you try to load a template outside configured directories (../theme/fixedfooternavbar.css) in "@dmzx_fixedfooternavbar/event/overall_header_head_append.html" at line 1. in /w__/htdocs/___.xxx/vendor/twig/twig/src/Loader/FilesystemLoader.php:291 Stack trace: #0 /w__/htdocs/___.xxx/vendor/twig/twig/src/Loader/FilesystemLoader.php(211): Twig\Loader\FilesystemLoader->validateName('../theme/fixedf...') #1 /w__/htdocs/w0140128/___.xxx/phpbb/template/twig/loader.php(135): Twig\Loader\FilesystemLoader->findTemplate('../theme/fixedf...', true) #2 /w--/htdocs/w0140128/____.xxx/vendor/twig/twig/src/Loader/FilesystemLoader.php(150): phpbb\template\twig\loader->findTemplate('../theme/fixedf...') #3 /w__/htdocs/____.xxx/phpbb/template/twig/environment.php(313): Twig\Loader\FilesystemLoader->getCacheKey('../theme/fixedf...') #4 /w__/htdocs/w0140128/testforum.esterelcl in /w__/htdocs/w0140128/____.xxx/vendor/twig/twig/src/Loader/FilesystemLoader.php on line 291

Under 3.3.5 there were no errors

What have you already tried to solve the problem?
First I've activated the ext "in the flow" of activating my whole ext. I thought that the ext perhaps crashes in reaction with an other already activated. So I restored the old forumversion and than I activated the ext at first. But it also crashes. I also downloaded it and replaced the files in my directory.

Description and Message

[Scanialady]

It is probably a similar error as with the Board3 portal. You find the solution here: https://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopi ... 56#p354956

It must of course be adapted to what this extension requires. Instead of @board3_portal enter the correct author_extension part

Hi. The overall_header_head_append.html contains only one line
<!-- INCLUDECSS ../theme/fixedfooternavbar.css -->

I first changed to <!-- INCLUDECSS ../theme/@dmzx_fixedfooternavbar -->

and then to <!-- INCLUDECSS ../@dmzx_fixedfooternavbar -->

But both times there is the errormessage again

I also tried <!-- INCLUDECSS ../@dmzx/fixedfooternavbar -->

but also error

Replace by

Code: Select all

<!-- INCLUDECSS '@dmzx_fixedfooternavbar/fixedfooternavbar.css' -->

[martin]

replace by

Code: Select all

<!-- INCLUDECSS '@dmzx_fixedfooternavbar/fixedfooternavbar.css' -->

It needs twig

Code: Select all

{% INCLUDECSS '@dmzx_fixedfooternavbar/fixedfooternavbar.css' %}

Thanks Martin, it is working again. Can you pls tell me, what is Twig?

[martin]

Twig has been around for a while it's another way of coding html to keep up with browsers phpbb was just 20 years behind.

[LuMaReMa]

20 years??

[Sniper_E]

Yes I think he said 20 years. but he exaggerates

[LuMaReMa]

What I wonder. when Twig is being used for such a long time - why the problem now appears? The ext is working since we est. our forum....

[ssl]

The reason is that you have just upgraded your forum to version 3.3.10, since version 3.3.9 of phpBB the TWIG behavior has changed.

The error message in question has been around for a long time, precisely since phpBB 3.1.0 (Twig 1.13.2). However, the associated verification has changed several times over the years and remained unchanged for a long time with phpBB 3.3 up to phpBB 3.3.8 (Twig 2.15.1). However, with phpBB 3.3.9 (Twig 2.15.3), there was a small change in the following file, which, in combination with the relative path specification, then leads to the mentioned error message:

vendor\twig\twig\src\Loader\FilesystemLoader.php

Thanks for this info. I'm not a professional, but I always try to understand what I do

With this background: I have many extensions (for example "Contact the admin") which are "sleeping" - they are not in use every day. Would it be good, to check in all extensions the overall_header_head_append.html?

[ssl]

It is especially necessary to check if the extensions used do not need updating, this is an important rule to apply when updating phpBB.

[LuMaReMa]

Yes, I know this and check it every update.

So, when there is no update for the ext there will be no problem?

So, when there is no update for the ext there will be no problem?

In theory not, unless the developers have abandoned their extension or do not keep them up to date.
