Running the newly released 3.0.5

When it try to edit either a built in template set or a custom one, I get the following error:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/username/FUDforum/include/compiler.inc:908) in /home/username/public_html/forum/adm/admtemplates.php on line 18

Thoughts?

I used it to modify the default template to set a standard image width I had custom set in 3.0.4. Worked fine, no issues.

Just to make sure, I went through a vanilla install of 3.0.5 on a different domain and it doesn't work for me.

I get the same error as soon as I click the Edit button under "Edit Template Files."

What should I do next?

My thoughts on this could be the permissions for /home and how other accounts access to write to it. My installation in test is in the /var/www/html directory. However we are upgrading to 3.0.5 in production on Friday so we'll see how this works there as production is in /home as well.

Based on what you said, I chmod'd everything in the FUDforum data directory to 777 to no avail.

Also, I didn't seem to have a problem with the old permissions (755) when i created a new template set, which also writes to the FUDforum data directory. It created the template set no problem. But then I tried to edit it and I got the error above.

Translation: I don't think this is a permissions problem

According to a google search, this is most definitely a code problem. They are saying it's someone putting a blank space or other HTML before a PHP request.

The part that doesn't make sense is that you're not seeing the problem. I'm wondering if you would see it if you did a vanilla 3.0.5 install instead on upgrade.

I figured it out. There's an extra line at the end of /home/username/FUDforum/include/compiler.inc. Delete it and the error goes away.

That sounds familiar - you may have output_buffering disabled.
We probably have it enabled and are hence unable to reproduce the problem.

Got the same error when upgrading production tonight, did not encounter this in test:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/FUDforum/include/compiler.inc:908) in /home/vintagegruen.org/vgforum/adm/admtemplates.php on line 18

Again I did not encounter this in test, test was also an upgrade. I tried editing the compiler.inc in the file editor but saw 2 lines at the end instead of 1 like mentioned in the above solution. I tried deleting them by hitting backspace. That didn't work, got a similar error only at line 210 this time.

I looked at the compiler.inc on the test box where the template editor is working. In the vi editor I could see the extra line. I deleted it, saved and ftp'd up to production. Worked!

php output_buffering is enabled on both test and production.

The internal file editor in the admin panel could be suspect for making these type of changes.

Thoughts?

I also had the same error. Now I'm new to FUD so this was a brand new install which I'd not tweaked at all.
After reading through the messages above I checked my compiler.inc and found a space at the end of the file.
I got rid of the space and now it works just fine. And yes, in my instance it was just a space - no extra lines.

Weird.
