32K plugin yields 8MB plugin file
Could this be possible? My plugin’s text source is consistently yielding an 8MB plugin file. Of course this is way too big for txp to load without dying, so I’m not sure what’s going on at the other end. This is using zem_tpl.php and classTextile. I know it’s a (very) big plugin, but this is a little strange. base64_encode should only increase file size by 33% or so, according to PHP docs. What’s going on here?
Edit: now it outputs a 1k file which only contains <?php?>

Oh, and ignore that
// —- BEGIN PLUGIN CODE —-
- —- BEGIN PLUGIN CODE —-
in the actual code.

For starters, get rid of $test = true.

This is the updated source file which is still returning a plugin file that only contains <?php ?>

I can compile it just fine.
Try removing the @ in front of the include of zem_tpl.php and see if you get any error when trying to compile. Are you sure that it resides one directory up from where your plugin is?

egh, this is really ridiculous. I can’t get it to compile even if i make a completely new location on the server and specify the full address for zem_tpl.php. Still nothing. Also it’s inducing 500 errors on my Textpattern interface now.

Get rid of the @ in front of
@include_once('../zem_tpl.php');sounds like it’s including the wrong file, or failing to include it at all.

i’ve gotten rid of it and it’s still creating huge / small files. i’m beginning to think that it’s compiling php.cgi.

Re: 32K plugin yields 8MB plugin file
Best suggestion I have is to do some good old-fashioned var_dump() debugging in zem_tpl.php.

Re: 32K plugin yields 8MB plugin file
egh, okay. here’s the deal. I’m on dreamhost. compile_plugin() uses SCRIPTNAME to get the filename. since it’s running as php-cgi, SCRIPTNAME is apparently /dh/cgi-system/php.cgi.
let this be a warning to others.
