You may want to ask on the IPB forums to see if there is a work arround.

As a PHP programmer myself i can tell you that you can do EVERYTHING in "safe mode" that you can do without it, if it doesnt work its due to poor programming. (be sure not to confuse "safe mode" with open_basedir or disable_functions)

That being said, safe mode errors can appear when the problem is something unrelated, such as missing files or wrong system path.

ok here is the error that you get ,


IPB WARNING [2] ipsclass::require_once() [function.require-once]: Unable to access /web-drive/gimyweb/homes/deadsteam/forum/cache/skin_cache/cacheid_4/skin_global.php (Line: 1362 of /sources/ipsclass.php)
IPB WARNING [2] ipsclass::require_once(/web-drive/gimyweb/homes/deadsteam/forum/cache/skin_cache/cacheid_4/skin_global.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory (Line: 1362 of /sources/ipsclass.php)


the error only appears after i install the skin,

here is the post on one of the main invisionn boards http://forums.invisionize.com/index.php?showtopic=112794

You are using the wrong file path
/web-drive/gimyweb/homes/deadsteam
No idea where you could have got that from.

BTW. What kind of admin (IPB forums) doesnt know what "No such file or directory" means.
I cant beleive they could be so thick.

You dont have that file uploaded.

[brightblog]

thats the thing there is no such fiel to upload

[Tyler]

You may want to check your download, or ask for help from Invision on what to put there.

[brightblog]

hey i have asked for help but all i am told is that i need safe mode switched off

[Tyler]

You don't need safe mode off... it is simply saying that it is missing a file.

[brightblog]

but the cache_id number changes from 3 to 4 to 5???

[UnlimitedMB]

This error has nothing to do with safe mode or any security settings.
The file is missing.

[lomarb]

The problem is IPB not creating the cache folder. try do a recache of all skins under skin tools. Im not 100% sure of the category names though.

[brightblog]

easily solved, go to tools>search bar type: safe mode> then click yes



wala fixed :) thanks for the help guys
