I found the problem. When you do a compile you are adding a path on to the front of:
{{extend '../../plugin_t2/views/layout.html'}} lines and this does not work when being compiled. During the data=parse_template in compile_views parse_template constructs a path: /..../applications/app/views/../../plugin_t2/views..... Which raises an exception because that path does not exist when it tries to open the file on that mal constructed path. I took out the ../../ and the app compiles fine now. I don't really need the view file, but I need the controller function as it emails out some things. I cases like this where we only use a controller function, is there a way to just not have the controller_function.html around - it seems it has to at least be there, even if empty, I guess. thx, -wes On Mon, Feb 1, 2010 at 6:39 PM, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: > was this solved? > > Massimo > > On Feb 1, 5:09 pm, Wes James <compte...@gmail.com> wrote: >> When I try to compile my app with 1.74.9 I get: >> >> Cannot compile: there are errors in your app. Debug it, correct errors >> and try again. >> >> I've been poking around my app, but haven't come across any errors in >> the code.
