Relative path problem when using phpThumb

[oo12]

When using phpThumb, if you give pThumb a relative path and your $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] is different than MODX_BASE_PATH, the file won't be found. Resizer works ok.

Fixed the path issue. But it cant generate a thumbnail. Here is the errror log. Ill check on this later today and get back with more info. Just gotta complete a project first.

As a ref, i checked phpthumbsup as well. It had the same issue with the paths. So i guess we could recommend the developer of that project to sort the same issue.

[2013-11-05 07:32:10](ERROR @ /index.php) [pThumb] Resource: 1 || Image: assets/product_photo_lasse.png

This is the problem right here:

[9] => !$this->config_allow_src_above_docroot therefore setting
"/Users/williamastrom/Development/test.dev/public/assets/product_photo_lasse.png" (outside
"/Library/WebServer/Documents") to null in file "phpthumb.class.php" on line 1066

Since MODX is installed outside of what your web server thinks is your document root, phpThumb isn't happy. It has a couple settings I can use to fix that I think, but this misconfiguration might cause problems for you elsewhere too.

Since you're on a Mac, there's a nice program called MAMP, which installs Apache, PHP and MySQL. It's dead simple to install and configure; much easier than OS X's built-in web server. All you need is the free version. I just tested it on my computer and it sets the document root properly for PHP. You might give that a try if you've got a few minutes...

I'll see tonight what I can do about phpThumb and your current configuration though.

One more version for you to try if you don't mind.

phpThumb will probably find something new to complain about though :-) You can see it's rather paranoid about checking everything each time it creates an image!

[oo12]

I put these changes into v2.2.0. If you still have your machine set up like that, give it a try if you like.

Sorry for being non-responsive. Was covered in work. I will have a look at this today, or tomorrow the lastest and get back to you. And yes, i have left my mac that way to be able to test this so ill check on it!

[oo12]

Ok, whenever you get the chance... Thanks!
I made a few other related changes in 2.2. pThumb will now use the phpthumb_allow_src_above_docroot phpthumb_document_root system settings (in core > phpThumb). If there's nothing in phpthumb_document_root then it sets it to MODX_BASE_PATH.

I'm going to close this, but please reopen if it continues to be a problem.
