CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I'm running 1.8 with Drupal and used the automated installer from civicrm-1.8.10954-drupal-php5

Everything seemed to go fine and the site is up and running.  I can do almost all of the typical tasks like adding members, creating groups, etc.  However, several functions result in smarty erros like the following:

userwarning: Smarty error: unable to read resource:
"CRM/Contact/Form/Task/Export/select.tpl in
XXXX/sites/all/modules/civicrm/packages/Smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1095

--I used the XXXX to indicate my full path which is extraordinarily long but verified as correct.

I get a similar error when trying to complete several other functions like the Map function.  The error above is the same except for the following:  "CRM/Contact/Form/Task/Map/Google.tpl"

In each case, the error references a different .tpl file.  These files are not listed in the directories the error messages suggest.  It seems as though the tpl files are either not in existence or are not being created properly.

Any help would be appreciated!!

Below are a few more examples:
user warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "CRM/Contact/Page/View/UserDashBoard/GroupContact.tpl" in XXXX/sites/all/modules/civicrm/packages/Smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1095.
user warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "CRM/Contact/Page/View/UserDashBoard/Contribution.tpl" in /XXXX/sites/all/modules/civicrm/packages/Smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1095.
user warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "CRM/Contact/Page/View/UserDashBoard/Membership.tpl" in /XXXX/sites/all/modules/civicrm/packages/Smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1095.
user warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "CRM/Contact/Page/View/UserDashBoard/Participant.tpl" in /XXXXX/sites/all/modules/civicrm/packages/Smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1095.

I considered that and checked again today.  I downloaded and untarred the file again and none of the mentioned files are in the original archive. 

I just tried again with 7-zip.  The tpl files are not there.  I looked in \civicrm\crm\contact\form\task\export and there are only two files:  select.php and map.php.  According to the error messages I've been getting, there should also be a select.tpl and a map.tpl.

Essentially though, so I understand, all the tpl's referenced above should be found in the ORIGINAL download before I get anything on the site.  Is that correct?  Or are these files somehow created on the fly?

Thanks again!

Thanks.  I checked that path and the files are there.  Unfortunately, that still leaves the problem of the error messages.  Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance --

Thanks for all your help!  Problem solved.

I re-downloaded the package and copied up the templates folder you mentioned above.  I'm not sure if it was just missing files or permissions or what but it worked immediately.

Thanks for your help and sorry for the goose chase!
