Load includes for validation (Fatal error: Call to undefined function _filefield_source_attach_file_path_validate)

Thanks for the report. I think this problem is probably not related to any of the most recent changes, but different versions of Drupal and different installations of modules may be the reason why this is only showing up on some of your sites (and I've never seen it at all). Sometimes when Drupal submits and validates a form, it doesn't rebuild the whole form. Since the build function is what loads the sources/attach.inc file (which contains the _filefield_source_attach_file_path_validate() function), if the build function gets skipped and Drupal uses a cached version, the error occurs that you're seeing.

There's a FormAPI property or $form_state key for making sure all the necessary files are loaded, but I can't recall it at the moment. Something like $form_state['build_files'] or something. We need to set that property to ensure all the necessary sub-files are included on validation/submit.

I've committed this patch which makes FileField Sources utilize form_load_include() for each include when displaying a settings or field form for that source. Since I never encountered this problem myself, I can't confirm that it would solve the problem, but logically, it seems that this should do the trick. Please let me know if it seems this problem is fixed (or not) in the 1.8 release when it comes out.

If i try to use this remote url on a image field, while trying to save that image field i am getting this error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function _filefield_source_attach_file_path_validate() includes/form.inc on line 1410

What should i do?

I get the same error message when trying to save an image field : Fatal error: Call to undefined function _filefield_source_attach_file_path_validate() in /xx/xx/includes/form.inc on line 1411. Running Drupal 7.23

I am also facing the same issue running Drupal 7.26. Any help would be appreciated in advance.

Same problem here with the latest Drupal version.

Hello,

I found a solution for this issue.

The solution is that the name of directory for .inc files isn't a good name. For each .inc files into "sources", you must change hook_filefield_source_info() like that, for example :

function filefield_source_attach_info() {
  $source = array();
  $source['attach'] = array(
    'name' => t('File attach from server directory'),
    'label' => t('File attach'),
    'description' => t('Select a file from a directory on the server.'),
    'process' => 'filefield_source_attach_process',
    'value' => 'filefield_source_attach_value',
    'weight' => 3,
    - 'file' => 'includes/attach.inc',
    + 'file' => 'sources/attach.inc',
  );
  return $source;
}

The commit that introduce this problem is http://cgit.drupalcode.org/filefield_sources/commit/?id=fe1016a

I don't understand why the name of this directory has been changed?

Best regards.

Thx Softwar, that seems to be it!

+1 for #10, which fixes a clear error in http://cgit.drupalcode.org/filefield_sources/commit/?id=fe1016a
Would it be possible to get this committed, please?

Regards,

Dave

Same here. Looks to me like maybe the fix was never committed to 7.x-1.9. Can we get a new release please?

Disabling and enabling module helped me.

Hello,

I've added a patch because the changements wouldn't commit by the principal mainteners.

It's a solution in wait that the module has been modify.

Enjoy :)

Looks reasonable.

Thanks everyone!

Patch #16 applied to 7.x-1.x.

In 7.x-1.10.
