What are the permissions on that file? Can the webserver read it? Sounds like it cannot.

Getting the same error on a new multi-site installation now, where the translation files are stored and shared between multiple sites in sites/all/translations.

Ok, well, it would be great to know a better stack trace of the case when this is happening. It is possible the files are looked for in the wrong directory(?). Can you provide a debug_backtrace() of when this is happening? Thanks!

Tor Arne Thune’s picture

I would be happy to do that, but I'm not sure how to add the debug_backtrace(). I searched a little on drupal.org, but couldn't figure out how. Could you update the attached patch with the correct way to do it?

Gábor Hojtsy’s picture

Let's try these three lines first at the place here you tried to add that line:

if (!file_exists($file->filename)) {
  var_dump(debug_backtrace());
}

Ok, so I patched the file as described, enabled a module, navigated to another administration page and got the same errors as before, preceded by the debug_backtrace dump. I attached it as a text file, as it is kind of large.

Subscribing because it also happens to me.

As a starting point, I can tell you that it automatically can update the language of several modules, but it always stops when actualizing Drupal Core translation and appears the supplied error message...

lismail’s picture

Guys,

I had the same error before. However (at least for me) it looks like permission issue. Here's the way I solve it:

Previously, my /translations directory and its contents are:
drwxrwx--- 2 root apache 512 Jan 27 02:46 translations
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 1687 Jan 27 02:43 devel-7.x-1.0.id.po

Because the .po files created have write permission given only to apache, I changed the /translations directory ownership:group with:
chown apache:root translations

That's all, and the error gone.

Cheers,
Lismail

Begin solving problem as lismail describe. That's take effect. And I has noticed that the problem appeared when I copied site from one server to another, and nearly all permissions droped or corrupted.

Tor Arne Thune’s picture

The translations directory was created by the module and has these permissions:
drwxrwxrwx 2 username username 4096 2011-02-02 18:14 translations

The files in the translations directory have been saved there by the module and have these permissions:

I'm really stumped on this.

Gábor Hojtsy’s picture

I did not have time to look into this, but my assumption for now is that the file is not looked for at the right place (the error message does not have a specific path either). I'd suggest people looking into this maybe look at it with this in mind.

Tor Arne Thune’s picture

Okay, so I have reinstalled my multi-site development environment. This time I created the translations directory before setting 'Store downloaded files' to this directory:

$ mkdir -p sites/all/translations
$ sudo chown www-data:www-data sites/all/translations
$ ls -l sites/all
total 20
drwxr-xr-x  3 username username 4096 2011-02-05 16:48 libraries
drwxr-xr-x 17 username username 4096 2011-02-05 16:54 modules
-rw-r--r--  1 username username  404 2009-03-18 10:53 README.txt
drwxr-xr-x  3 username username 4096 2011-02-05 16:54 themes
drwxr-xr-x  2 www-data www-data 4096 2011-02-05 18:22 translations

After having set 'Store downloaded files' to this directory (sites/all/translations), I went to Regional and language > Languages and added a predefined language (French). Everything went okay, and the files were stored in sites/all/translations:

$ ls -l sites/all/translations
total 848

-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data  15194 2011-02-05 18:22 wysiwyg-7.x-2.0.fr.po

After the messages telling me that everything went successful with the downloading and importing of the new language, I navigated to Administration > Configuration and got the same filemtime() errors again, as in the original post.

Tor Arne Thune’s picture

Where is the file path (uri variable in the $source array) specified?
I see this code: $source->uri = $file->filename; , but this does not include the file path, if I understand correctly?
The function in question is:

function l10n_update_source_check_file($source, $directory = 'translations') {
  $filename = '/'. preg_quote($source->filename) . '$/';

  // Using the 'name' key will return
  if ($files = drupal_system_listing($filename, $directory, 'name', 0)) {
    $file = current($files);
    $source->type = 'localfile';
    $source->uri = $file->filename;
    $source->timestamp = filemtime($file->filename);
    return $file;
  }
}

I'm really not qualified to find a solution for this, or even look at this code, but I will try to understand where the file path gets set.

Same problem here....

Assumption in #13 is correct. filename is only the filename without any path part. The change below worked for me to prevent the warning. BUT: The line above ($source->uri = $file->filename;) looks suspicious tome as well: assigning a filename (without path part) to a uri property while the $file object has a uri field itself...

Values during execution (only checking local):

$source	Object of: stdClass	
	name	(string:6) drupal	
	project_type	(string:4) core	
	core	(string:3) 7.x	
	version	(string:3) 7.0	
	l10n_server	(string:0) 	
	l10n_path	(string:75) http://ftp.drupal.org/files/translations/7.x/drupal/drupal-7.0.%language.po	
	status	(string:1) 1	
	project	(string:6) drupal	
	language	(string:2) nl	
	filename	(string:16) drupal-7.0.nl.po	
$file	Object of: stdClass	
	uri	(string:29) translations/drupal-7.0.nl.po	
	filename	(string:16) drupal-7.0.nl.po	
	name	(string:13) drupal-7.0.nl	

old code:

function l10n_update_source_check_file($source, $directory = 'translations') {
  $filename = '/'. preg_quote($source->filename) . '$/';

  // Using the 'name' key will return
  if ($files = drupal_system_listing($filename, $directory, 'name', 0)) {
    $file = current($files);
    $source->type = 'localfile';
    $source->uri = $file->filename;
    $source->timestamp = filemtime($file->filename);
    return $file;
  }
}

new code (prevents warning):

function l10n_update_source_check_file($source, $directory = 'translations') {
  $filename = '/'. preg_quote($source->filename) . '$/';

  // Using the 'name' key will return
  if ($files = drupal_system_listing($filename, $directory, 'name', 0)) {
    $file = current($files);
    $source->type = 'localfile';
    $source->uri = $file->filename;
    $source->timestamp = filemtime($file->uri);
    return $file;
  }
}

new code (should it be like this???):

function l10n_update_source_check_file($source, $directory = 'translations') {
  $filename = '/'. preg_quote($source->filename) . '$/';

  // Using the 'name' key will return
  if ($files = drupal_system_listing($filename, $directory, 'name', 0)) {
    $file = current($files);
    $source->type = 'localfile';
    $source->uri = $file->uri;
    $source->timestamp = filemtime($file->uri);
    return $file;
  }
