Error when changing store location...HELP!

[adobefriedman]

I attempted to change the location of my client's store from the /store/ directory to the main and caused all kinds of errors. So, I tried to move it back to troubleshoot but have been unable to get it working again with my customized application. At best, the site now pulls up a default template with the never-ending error of:

Warning: strstr() [function.strstr]: Empty delimiter. in /home/.graystoke/rolyat/mardigourds.com/store/includes/classes/template_func.php on line 59

I know that this suggests an undefned string but this was the error generated when I solved the missing tpl_main_page.php issue. I only made changes to the config files when I attempted to move the directory so I'm unsure why my custom template is failing [although I'm a new Zenner and know that some of my override folders could use help].

Zen Cart Version: 1.3.0.1
PHP v: 5.1.2
My SQL: 5.0.18
Linux on DreamHost

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Update from last post. I have searched and compared files to no avail.

Still receiving the following error::

Warning: strstr() [function.strstr]: Empty delimiter. in /home/.graystoke/rolyat/mardigourds.com/store/includes/classes/template_func.php on line 59


My store was completely customized and ready to go and now I only get the default.

PLEASE provide any thoughts. See versions from previous post.

Thanks!

(ZenCart 1.3.0.2)
I just encountered the same error yesterday morning after creating the folders for a custom template. I copied the files mentioned in the FAQ and Wiki to these folders. I had previously modified the classic template to my needs before learning about the overrides features. (I think the only changes were in the stylesheet.css and some image files.) I was trying to get the templates cleaned up in preparation for upgrading to v1.3.5.

Everything seemed fine until I went to admin and selected the custom template folder. At first it appeared nothing changed (as expected). Then I reselected the classic template. After doing routine product updates with the admin panel I finished and went on the browser to verify that the site was up and running okay. That's when I first noticed the numerous repetitions of the error message on the index.php page.

I tried to put up a "down for maintenance" status from the admin panel but the maintenance page also displayed the error warning. I decided to put up an index.html page with "down for maintenance" and temporarily renamed index.php to _index.php.

I am currently waiting on my host to restore from a backup.

I noticed a couple of other postings in the forums with this same problem, but no fixes posted. Someone thought the problem might be in the template_info file.

Here's the code from my template_info.php files for the classic, my custom and the default templates:

classic
<?php
$template_name = 'Classic Template';
$template_version = 'Version 1.3.0';
$template_author = 'Zen Cart Team (c) 2006';
$template_description = 'This template set is designed to be easily modified using only the style sheet to change colors, fonts, and the store logo. Three images are required; logo.jpg, header_bg.jpg, and tile_back.jpg.';
$template_screenshot = 'scr_template_default.jpg';


custom
<?php
/**
* Template Information File
* @copyright Copyright 2006 Aspen Shops LLC
*/
$template_name = 'aspenshops_custom';
$template_version = 'Version 1.0';
$template_author = 'Ron Lee (c) 2006';
$template_description = 'This template set is designed to be easily modified using only the style sheet to change colors, fonts, and the store logo. Three images are required; logo.jpg, header_bg.jpg, and tile_back.jpg.';
$template_screenshot = '';
?>

default template
<?php

*/
$template_name = 'Default Template';
$template_version = 'Version 1.0';
$template_author = 'Zen Cart Team (c) 2003';
$template_description = 'This template set is designed to be easily modified using only the style sheet to change colors, fonts, and the store logo. Three images are required; logo.jpg, header_bg.jpg, and tile_back.jpg.';
$template_screenshot = 'scr_template_default.jpg';
?>

Anybody got some ideas?

@AdobeFriedMan:

Check your configure.php files - you have your domain name in your server file path:

/home/.graystoke/rolyat/mardigourds.com/store/

[adobefriedman]

Thanks, Pixxi. I just checked both and don't see the reference you listed below but I have been at this for 18 hours. Exactly which config file did you pull that from?

[Pixxi]

From your original post:

Warning: strstr() [function.strstr]: Empty delimiter. in /home/.graystoke/rolyat/mardigourds.com/store/includes/classes/template_func.php on line 59

Unless your server is set up to use the domain name as the name of your document root in the server file path?

Your site also seems to have an image define missing for your main logo - looking at the view source of your index page:

 ... <img src="includes/templates/template_default/images/" alt="" 

Take a look in includes/languages/english/(your template)/header.php, you should have:

define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.gif'); 

If you have a blank define, ie.:

define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', ''); 

that can be a cause of the error.

The problem in my case was in the database.

I tried restoring web files from a backup created before the error appeared and still had the problem. Then I (reluctantly) restored the database from 24 hours earlier and the problem cleared. Of course I had to manully reconstruct the sales records for the past 24 hours.

I don't know where in the database data the problem occurred.
