Fatal error: Call to a member function query_first_slave()

[dolbex]

Howdy,

I'm having a really tough time executing some datamanager code from within the CakePHP framework. I won't bore you with the details and I know this isn't a CakePHP forum. However, I would like to understand why I'm getting the error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function query_first_slave()

I get this whenever I try to execute my code from within cake and it happens after I change directories and require the global.php file. The error is on line 1319 in global and is a query that vB is executing.

ANY help would be very very appreciated. It seems that integrating vB with cake is something nobody has a great answer for and I would love to release a true solution for everyone.

Thanks!

I should note that if I execute the file outside of the framework it works just fine. It is certainly a problem between vB and cake.

No help here? I'm sure someone has run across this attempting to run Datamanager from outside vB.

You didn't write out the query line, but perhaps $vbulletin wasn't defined as global?

PHP Code:

global $vbulletin;

It would be much easier to help you if you posted snippets of your code.

I am also having similar problem while trying to integrate vb with CakePHp.

In cakephp app_controller.php in beforeFilter function, I have written the following to instantiate vbulletin:

$dir = getcwd(); 
chdir('./forums');
require './global.php';
chdir($dir);

But, I got the above error message as

Call to a member function query_first_slave()

Hope I will get solutions to my problem.

Thanks.

I assume you are including global.php in a non-global context (eg. within a function or class method) - this won't work (that easily).

Thanks Andreas.

Do you have experience in integrating vBulletin with Cakephp application? If so, can you give me hints on integration.

Also, I am using ajax based login. Is it possible to authenticate users in vBulletin using AJAX form?

Thanks

Do you have a possibility to make this working? I have to initialise the Forum from a non-global context (from within a class) :-(

Please help, it's rather urgent... I try to create a Magento-vBulletin-SingleSignOn-Plugin.
