Style Chooser Disappears from footer when using (vB_Datastore_Filecache)

[AusPhotography]

We reported this bug
http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-9235

Has anyone else seen a similar issue?

Thanks!

I have a vB4.0.7 test system and have tried the vB_Datastore_Filecache (we are going to upgrade from 3.8.6 in the near future).

When the vB_Datastore_Filecache is enabled (uncomment in config.php) the style chooser disappears from the footer.
When I put it back to database mode all is good.

Datastore.php attached.

Thanks!

Edit: Stating the obvious... The test system has two selectable skins. As I said it works when the cache is in the database.

FYI The problem occurs even if I put 'define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);' into config.php.
This suggests its not one of my plugins.

Update: As far as I can tell in eye-balling the code class_bootstrap.php/process_templates calls functions.php/construct_style_options and somehow $vbulletin->options['styleid'] is not set correctly when using vB_Datastore_Filecache.

No idea why

Bug found but not fixed.

Updated: http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-9235

manually edited datastore_cache.php

$stylecache = array (
4294967295 =>
array (

...to...

$stylecache = array (
-1 =>
array (

And it now works.
It looks like a bug in the bit that creates the datastore_cache.php file!

I was having this same damn issue and the solution that worked for me was the last post on this page...

Looks like this is an issue with PHP v5.2 so hopefully my damn host will upgrade soon.
