Empty txp_lang items cause load_lang_event to fail

Playing with Textpacks, installed a bunch of languages on a test site (all of them, in fact), and noticed that the correct Textpack would not load for a few languages. (I am using load_lang_event() to load the Textpack.) The problem is that an empty (no name) item in txp_lang causes load_lang_event() to think that the language is not installed, so it defaults to en-gb.

A possible safeguard would be to patch load_lang_event():

$HeadURL: https://textpattern.googlecode.com/svn/releases/4.3.0/source/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php $
$LastChangedRevision: 3437 $

...

259		$installed = safe_field('name', 'txp_lang',"lang='".doSlash($lang)."' AND name != '' limit 1");

Code is topiary

Re: Empty txp_lang items cause load_lang_event to fail

Another one would be:

$installed = safe_field(‘lastmod’, ‘txp_lang’, “lang=’”.doSlash($lang).”’ limit 1”);

Re: Empty txp_lang items cause load_lang_event to fail

Yes, from the small sample of blank entries I have, that would work. As would

$installed = safe_field(‘id’, ‘txp_lang’, “lang=’”.doSlash($lang).”’ limit 1”);

or

$installed = safe_field(‘lang’, ‘txp_lang’, “lang=’”.doSlash($lang).”’ limit 1”);

Thanks Jeff. This now is issue 99. I have commited change set 3472 as a first barrier for such data to enter the app. Please try and report back.

We’ll need to apply further measures on the RPC server to avoid the introduction of invalid language data in the first place.

Patch to skip the bad records before they enter the db:

Thanks Robert — that fixes the issue for the three cases I have to test. (They are, BTW, de-de, bs-ba, and fa-ir.)

select * from txp_lang where name = ''

3367	de-de				2010-11-14 00:36:08
7442	bs-ba		common		2008-05-21 17:03:06
