Fri, 04 Jul 2008 22:42:38 -0400 http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6299 global $conf empty $conf seems to be empty when Horde::getTempDir() is executed, except while accessing the Administration/Setup, in that case it actually contains the variables from conf.php. In all other cases Util::getTempDir() is executed because of $conf being empty. i noticed this when Horde cache files were being written in the php upload_tmp_dir, while they should be in $conf['tmpdir']. Util::getTempDir() falls back to php's upload_tmp_dir whenever it can't find $config['tmpdir'], therefor the cache files are in the wrong directory. i changed Horde::getTempDir() to print_r $conf whenever it's being called, and so far I only saw output generated when accessing the Administration/Setup and also when attaching a file to a message in IMP. in this case the the file also resides in $config['tmpdir'] just untill the message has been sent (which is correct behavior imho). I'm using the latest RC2 version of Horde/IMP Wed, 20 Feb 2008 08:45:51 -0500 http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6299#t42655 yea, I just uncovered this one the other day as well. The issue is that when an application is loaded in the registry ($registry-pushApp() -> Horde::loadConfiguration() etc...) conf.php hasn't finished loading (and is not yet in the GLOBAL scope) when Horde::getTempDir() is called from conf.php. We're looking at possible fixes, but for now, your going to need to hard code your tmp path there if you want it something other than your system default.

So it works in apps, but not in Horde, right?

To see what I mean, set $conf['tmpdir'] to something other than your system default. Set $conf[cache][params][dir] to Horde::getTempDir() (while using file based cache). Then from admin->php shell try the following echo $conf['tmpdir']; // This will show the correct value that you set. echo $conf['cache']['params']['dir']; // This will incorrectly show the system's default tmp directory. echo Horde::getTempDir(); // This will correctly show the conigured horde tmpdir default, since it's being executed after the app has been loaded in the registry. Mon, 25 Feb 2008 11:29:27 -0500 http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6299#t42966 So, what do we do? Not defaulting to Horde::getTempDir()? Shouldn't even be a PHP expression anymore then. Mon, 03 Mar 2008 13:24:30 -0500 http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6299#t43351 That seems like the only reasonable fix to me.
