Hi,

I have two machines. One I want for testing, one as a webserver. At present the webserver works fine.

I want to try some new stuff. The drupal install lives in /var/www/html along with the modules, themes etc. there are no subdirectories, just a very vanilla site. I tarred the html folder, did a mysqldump and moved the tarred html folder to the test machine, extracted it, then imported the mysql database. The site looks identical.

The problem is that on the test machine if I try and edit one of the view blocks for a gallery I get

An error occurred at /admin/build/views/ajax/display/gallery/block_1/items_per_page.

Why would it be fine on one machine but not the other? I thought it might be something to do with the .htaccess files being different but thats not the problem, I then thought maybe the php.ini but it's still doing it.

Where would you suggest from now? The http error logs don't say anything much.

Thanks in advance.

You should enable display of php errors. This error only get displayed, if there is a php error.

Thanks for the reply.

I set the PHP errors to on as per

and I am not getting anything in the error log?

Another thing to check is to use Firebug to view the actual response given. Also, you might try out Views 2.x-dev which has a bit more error reporting for this.

If I open up firebug, when I click anything in views I get the error mentioned above and firebug reports

Thanks everyone for your help. I've sorted the problem and found that the cause is PHP.

I've found that with PHP 5.2 everything is great, with PHP 5.3 I get the problems mentioned above. I've tried it several times and everytime it fails with PHP 5.3.

Thanks,

Andrew

I've just started receiving this error, after updating my htaccess file to force my domain to be prefixed by www. But the error message shows the domain without the www prefix:

An error occurred at http://mydomain.com/admin/build/views/ajax/display/gallery/default/items...

I've tried clearing my Drupal cache, tried running update.php (failed at the end), clearing cookies for the site, and my Firefox cache.

There is no problem with another Drupal site (a multisite sharing the same codebase).

It might suggest another cache?
