Occasional Error: Failed to open stream

We recently installed vBSEO (a couple of weeks ago)
Most of the time, everything works fine. We are seeing an occasional error when someone starts a new thread. When this happens, it happens to the first post in a thread (There will not be any posts after the initial thread post). This has only happened twice in the past couple of weeks. This is the error you see when trying to view the thread.

Warning: main(/home/t17/public_html/forums/2347-serious-but-same-time-lighter-side-news.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/t17/public_html/forums/vbseo.php on line 864

I am concerned about the error. When this happens, the only thing I can do is delete the thread. Anyone know why this is happening?

Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions!

Could this be a conflict with my news CRR?

I have a plugin for news. Come to think of it, I think the other thread that had the error was titled "Arcade News". me thinks that any thread title ending with News is when it breaks. Should I rename the news link to somthing else like News123 and then rewrite the rule to News123?

Thanks Oleg!

any threads that end with the word "news" have problems
any threads that end with the word "register" also have a problem
any threads that end with the word "worldmap" also have a problem
any threads that end with the word "arcade" also have a problem


for some reason, these words are unaffected: search, misc, userpage

Yes, you should try to modify your news and register CRRs to:

Code:

'^news\.php$' => 'news.html'
'^register\.php$' => 'register.html'

I had them that way before but caused issues with my vbadvanced Navbar and you had me remove the "^" which fixed the vBAdvanced..

See this thread:

vBadvanced redirection loop

If I change them back, then the vBAdvanced navbar wont function correctly

I changed my rewrite rules and this seems to have fixxed the problems.

Now I just need to hope nobody posts something like "I like the calendar123"


Let me know of there is a better way to do this

I'll take that as an action item.

so, let me see if I understand this...

If you put the carrot (^) before the rule, that fixes it but breaks external pages like vBAdvanced.

Workaround would be to redefine the CRR to something that would be unlikely to be used at the end of a thread, ie "arcade123.html" instead of "arcade.html".

I have implemented these changes in my defined CRR's


This seems like a band-aid.

Seems like there would be a better way to do this. What am I missing?

Yes, that's right. You can use something more for CRR though, like arcadepage.html

OK, Thanks Oleg!

Things seem to be working good now after making the changes

Great!

im having the same problem as well sometimes when viewing pictures but always when i try to post comment...

Code:

'browseimages\.php\?c=(\d+)$' => 'browse-$1.html'
'browseimages\.php\?c=(\d+)&page=( \d+)$' => 'browse-$1-$2.html'
'browseimages\.php\?c=(\d+)&userid=$' => 'browse-$1-albums.html'
'browseimages\.php\?c=(\d+)&userid=(\d+)$' => 'browse-$1-user$2.html'
'browseimages\.php\?c=(\d+)&u=(\d+)$' => 'browse-$1-user$2.html'
'browseimages\.php\?do=popimages$' => 'top.html'
'browseimages\.php\?do=popimages&orderby=views' => 'topviews.html'
'browseimages\.php\?do=popimages&orderby=rating' => 'toprated.html'
'browseimages\.php\?do=popimages&orderby=posts' => 'toppost.html'
'showimage\.php\?i=(\d+)&noignore=0&postid=(\d+)$' => 'image-$1-$2.html'
'showimage\.php\?i=(\d+)&original=1.*$' => 'image-$1big.html'
'showimage\.php\?i=(\d+).*$' => 'image-$1-.html'
'gallery/index\.php' => 'home.html'

This is my custom rewrite rules
