compiler exception in phpBB 3.0 beta 4

[Duracellko@codeplex]

At the moment I have some free time and so I decided to test some applications on Phalanger.

I tried phpBB 2.0.22 and it worked perfectly. I just had to correct usercp_avatar.php file, because there was a function with 2 parameters with the same name.
However, I tried slovak localization and some other styles and it worked perfectly ;) good work

Then I tried latest phpBB 3 beta 4 and when I started it, I got NullReferenceException.

index.php in root compiled correctly, because it redirects me to the install/index.php.

Details follow:

Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Source Error:


Line 113:include($phpbbrootpath . 'includes/cache.' . $phpEx);
Line 114:include($phpbbrootpath . 'includes/functions_admin.' . $phpEx);
Line 115:include($phpbbrootpath . 'includes/utf/utf_tools.' . $phpEx);
Line 116:
Line 117:// Try and load an appropriate language if required

Hi,
thanks for the error report, I'll investigate that.
What version of Phalanger did you use?

Thanks,
Tomas

[Duracellko@codeplex]

I used Phalanger 2.0 beta3 for windows.

Thanks again for reporting this issue!
I downloaded PhpBB 3 and found what was wrong. I checked-in the fix few minutes ago and it will be working in the next release (you can also build Phalanger from the source).
