Hi,

I’m currently working on an iPhone Client for BuddyPress, having a few problems with the BPDEV XML-RPC plugin though, keep getting this error can’t seem to find an explanation, does anyone have any idea what the problem might be?

Warning: require_once(ABSPATHWPINC/class-IXR.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/linqglo/public_html/yeahetc.com/wp-content/plugins/bpdev-xmlrpc/bpdev-xmlrpc-classes.php on line 19

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘ABSPATHWPINC/class-IXR.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/linqglo/public_html/yeahetc.com/wp-content/plugins/bpdev-xmlrpc/bpdev-xmlrpc-classes.php on line 19

Cheers, James

Have you posted in the http://BP-dev.org/ forums? This plugin is a 3rd-party plugin created by Nicola Greco. If you’ve posted there and received no response, you can PM him via BuddyPress.org.

bpdev is not being updated for a few months. I think Nicola’s been busy.

@jamesyeah, if you could get this feature to work on iphone,please remember android phones!

Overall, a big step in the mobile apps ….

Hey,

Yeah I have looked in to Android, my priority is with the iPhone for the moment though, I think it would be really cool to get a customiseable client up, using some of the newly released Facebook three20 components from the facebook iPhone app.

I have got connection functioning to the standard xml-rpc.php file but still having problems with that error on the buddypress one, I hope I can figure this out soon.

Looks to me like the file is just missing. Can you find where the file actually is and modfiy the bp-dev plugin to point to the correct location?

Hey,

Yes I’ve located the file it seems to be looking in the current code:

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/class-IXR.php’ );

I tried changing it to:

require_once( ‘http://yeahetc.com/wp-includes/class-IXR.php’ );

but that stopped the whole site from functioning, just appearing blank, the file definitely is there in that folder. I can’t figure it out!

You won’t be able to include a PHP through the uri, it will need to be done via the ABSPATH.

If I’m reading the error correctly, it looks like it’s taking the

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . "/class-IXR.php");…and turning it into a big long string. (unless that’s just how bbpress stripped it out…)

@jamesyeah,

What features would one expect from the iphone app?

The plan is to make it pretty similar to the facebook app but on a more basic level.

There will be three primary tabs, newsfeed, messaging/notifications and friends.

It’s very frustrating though as I can’t get properly started until I resolve this XMLRPC error, still can’t figure it out, very frustrating!

You have access to the globals in whichever scope you’re trying to use it in?

Hi,

I’m not really sure of what the access to globals is, however from what I can see it would appear that APPSPATH and WPINC components are not being rendered and are simply being printed.

Here is the page where the error is happening if that helps:

Thanks for your feedback, I have added this issue to Trac, so hopefully we will be able to find a resolution, I would like to get a beta preview out by the new year if possible.

I have resolved this problem if anyone else is having it:

These two lones were not correct at the top of bpdev-xml-rpc-classes.php, make sure it looks like this and you should be fine!

require_once( ‘/yourpath/wp-includes/class-IXR.php’ );

require_once( ‘/yourpath/wp-includes/plugin.php’ );

Now I can really get stuck in to the iPhone app, yay!
