Fatal error: smarty
June 02, 2010, 01:46:29 am
Hello,

I've just installed civicrm but have the following error message on the civicrm page:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function smarty_modifier_truncate() in /home/alltoget/public_html/sites/default/files/civicrm/templates_c/en_US/en_US/%%06/069/0693F89E%%drupal.tpl.php  on line 13

Does anybody out there know what I need to do to fix this, please?

I'm using civicrm 3.1.5 with drupal 6.16, php 5.2.10, and mysql 5.0.90-community.

Many thanks  :)

----------
several hours later:

I've searched the web but I can't find anybody else who has reported and/or solved this problem.

Also, the message on my homepage says:

user error: Smarty error: [in CRM/common/drupal.tpl line 30]: [plugin] modifier 'truncate' is not implemented (core.load_plugins.php, line 118) in /home/alltoget/public_html/sites/all/modules/civicrm/packages/Smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1093

Maybe this will help clarify the problem?

The smarty_modifier_truncate function is defined in the packages/Smarty/plugins/modifier.truncate.php file; can you check whether your CiviCRM install has it?

Alternatively, it can be a problem with your hosting loading some other Smarty version before the one shipped with CiviCRM (but I think we try to make packages be early enough in the search path).
If you found the above helpful, please consider helping us in return – you can even steer CiviCRM’s future and help us extend CiviCRM in ways useful to you.

Thank you soooooo much, you were right, the plugins directory was empty for some bizarre reason.

All fixed now  :D
