Smarty not found?

[PatH007]

          Hi there.

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class "Smarty" not found in C:\wamp64\www\booking\lib\Email\SmartyEmail.php on line 9 Error: Class "Smarty" not found in C:\wamp64\www\booking\lib\Email\SmartyEmail.php on line 9

I got exactly the same kind of errors when I try to install the last app on a OVH shared server...
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class "Smarty" not found in /home/mywebsite/www/librebooking/lib/Email/SmartyEmail.php:9 Stack trace: #0 /home/mywebsite/www/librebooking/lib/Email/namespace.php(7): require_once() #1 /home/mywebsite/www/librebooking/lib/Email/Messages/AccountCreationEmail.php(3): require_once('/home/mywebsite...')

Thank for any help.

Sounds like you haven't got Smary libraries.
The booking system has changed since twinkletoes software stopped developing booked scheduler. In particular, not all dependencies are included, so need to use composer to fetch them during the install.

This is for windows.

Install Composer
Download composer from https://getcomposer.org/
Runn Composer-Setup.exe v2.6.6 as admin, this installs composer such that it can be called from any directory (by adding to windows path).
Ran this as admin, install for all users. Selected C:\xamp\php\php.exe as the command line php to use (change for your back end)
Select add to path (wouldn’t continue without this checked), didn’t select a proxy
Installs OK
Online documentation is here https://getcomposer.org/doc/

Installing extra dependencies
Open xampp’s shell and navigate to C:\xampp\htdocs\my_libre_booking_folder
type "composer install (return)" in the shell
It should report sometthing like:

_```

Then try to install librebooking:

and fingers crossed.

Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot for your help.
I finally achived to install Smarty on another server( not OVH...).
But I still have trouble with smarty... I don't know but it sound like paths trouble but I can't find where.

Hi @PatH007,

Could you check if you have this folder: /htdocs/mywebsite.com/librebooking/vendor/smarty/smarty
If it is not there, you must open shell, cd to /htdocs/mywebsite.com/librebooking/ and write install composer

[PatH007]

Could you check if you have this folder: /htdocs/mywebsite.com/librebooking/vendor/smarty/smarty
Thank you for your help.
It is ok, the folder is at the right place.
Now never ending warning with Web/install instruction.

Warning: chmod(): No such file or directory in /htdocs/mywebsite.com/librebooking/Web/install/index.php on line 30
The web server (such as _www on Mac or apache on Linux) must have write access to /../../tpl_c.
Warning: fileperms(): stat failed for /../../tpl_c in /htdocs/resa.mywebsite.com/librebooking/Web/install/index.php on line 16

[PatH007]

It seems there is never ending problem with ROOTDIR (?).

[treborin]

@PatH007, that warning is about write access (0755) to /librebooking/tpl_c folder
Check that this folder exists and create it if it does not exists

[PatH007]

Thank you for your help.
Indeed, the folder exists and the access is set to 0755, I checked a few times.
Either I got that error of path (seems to be) or a smarty problem (however I finally achived to install it).

[treborin]

@PatH007 , wich PHP version are you using?

[PatH007]

8.1.29 php version.

[PatH007]

Can't make it work.
Tried app 2.7 and again errors.
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function assign() on null in /htdocs/mywebsite.com/Pages/Page.php:227 Stack trace: #0 /htdocs/mywebsite.com/Pages/Page.php(156): Page->Set('ErrorMessage', 'UnknownError') #1 /htdocs/mywebsite.com/lib/Common/Logging/ExceptionHandler.php(56): Page->RedirectToError() #2 /htdocs/mywebsite.com/lib/Common/Logging/ExceptionHandler.php(37): WebExceptionHandler->HandleException(Object(TypeError)) #3 [internal function]: ExceptionHandler::Handle(Object(TypeError)) #4 {main} thrown in /htdocs/mywebsite.com/Pages/Page.php on line 227

[treborin]

@PatH007 ,
Librebooking PHP8 support started from version 2.8.6, so 2.7 with PHP 8.1.29 wont work.
It seems to me that there is a path config issue in your first installl. Could you pls post here your config.php content?

Hi @PatH007,

Pls. try this:
Change this line $conf['settings']['script.url'] = 'http://resa.mywebsite.com/';
with this: $conf['settings']['script.url'] = 'resa.mywebsite.com/librebooking/Web';

[PatH007]

Thank you @treborin for your help.
I made the change but no difference.
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function assign() on null in /htdocs/resa.mywebsite.com/Pages/Page.php:227 Stack trace: #0 /htdocs/resa.mywebsite.com/Pages/Page.php(156): Page->Set('ErrorMessage', 'UnknownError') #1 /htdocs/resa.mywebsite.com/lib/Common/Logging/ExceptionH..................
The whole app has to be in folder /librebooking/ or it doesn't matter if the parameters are ok ?

[treborin]

You can install on root, no problem.
Pls, try $conf['settings']['script.url'] = 'http:';

Are you able to use the error logging. It'd help to see the log file

/**
 * Error logging
 */
$conf['settings']['logging']['folder'] = '/htdocs/log'; //Absolute path to folder were the log will be written, writing permissions to the folder are required
$conf['settings']['logging']['level'] = 'debug'; //Set to none disable logs, error to only log errors or debug to log all messages to the app.log file 
$conf['settings']['logging']['sql'] = 'false'; //Set to true no enable the creation of and sql.log file

[PatH007]

Thanks a lot again for your help.
I made all modifications in config.php and created a log folder (permission 777), a couple of tests and nothing appeared in that log folder.
However I could access to log offered by hoster.

HI @PatH007 ,
I think there is something wrong with your Smarty install.

Line 227 refers to a smarty function:

Try to run composer install. Do it on local, if you cant do it on hoster and then upload the vendor folder again

[PatH007]

Thanks for your help all.
But no way to make any change...

[effgarces]

It seems that you are downloading the repo, in this case as treborin says you need to do composer install to add all the needed libraries. Could you try using the latest released zip?

[l3th0n]

I experienced the same error in the /var/log/apache2/error.log.
I installed Composer and ran (as said above) composer install. Had to use root priviliges though because of JsonFile.php.

And the /Web/install works now
Was on stable btw
