Hi

Sorry if this post appears twice but my first attempt at posting seems to have failed.

After installing the S3 component, on the edit bucket pop-up in bucket manager I get this message:-
JPath::clean: $path is not a string

and in the file browser I get:-
Catchable fatal error: Method CFSimpleXML::__toString() must return a string value in /…/com_jaamazons3/lib/cloudfusion.2.6/services/s3.class.php on line 1221

Any assistance appreciated. Best regards

Hello jameshamlin,

Could you please PM me your FTP account and Administrator account for further checking ?

We need to edit some files for debugging to get it fixed.

Have the same error.

Seeing success changing core Joomla files however, I would prefer not to do that.
Suggestions, fixes?
Thanks in advance.

———-
Just downloaded component and plugin.
* com_jaamazons3.v2.5.3
* plg_jaamazons3.v2.5.1

Error:
500 – An error has occurred.
JPath::clean: $path is not a string.

Location:
Files browser panel when “Viewing Remote Files”.

Joomla version:
2.5.11

Fix:
libraries/joomla/filesystem/path.php
Line #202, commented out the next four lines
// if (!is_string($path) && !empty($path))
// {
// throw new UnexpectedValueException(‘JPath::clean: $path is not a string.’);
// }

Hello,
@dw123 thanks you for your suggestion
@jameshamlin : I have re-checked code of Amazon SDK and found cause of issue. For resolving issue, please open the file:

administrator/components/com_jaamazons3/lib/cloudfusion.2.6/utilities/simplexml.class.php

then scrolling down to the line 168, replacing the below code snippet:

[PHP]if ($this->attributes())
{
return json_decode(substr($s, 14));
}[/PHP]

with

[PHP]if ($this->attributes())
{
$a = json_decode(substr($s, 14));
if($a && is_string($a)) {
return $a;
}
}[/PHP]

FYI: the edit bucket form now displays incorrect region under select region bucket, to resolve this issue please open the file

administrator/components/com_jaamazons3/views/bucket/view.html.php

Search for the code snippet:

[PHP]if($result->isOK()) {
$region = (string) $result->body;
}[/PHP]

and replace it with:

[PHP]if($result->isOK()) {
$region = (string) $result->body;
if(!empty($region)) {
$region = ‘s3-‘.$region.’.amazonaws.com’;
}
}[/PHP]

Have PM’ed you and unfortunately our system admin would like to find out if we can resolve another way versus allowing access to FTP and backend admin controls.

The error only seems to be in the later versions of Joomla.
i.e. Joomla version: 2.5.11 which is what we are running for some of our sites.

We also made the changes you’ve suggested and unfortunately that didn’t work.

Thanks.

Hello dw123,

Above update is applied to fix the bug that jameshamlin reported

<blockquote>Catchable fatal error: Method CFSimpleXML::__toString() must return a string value in /…/com_jaamazons3/lib/cloudfusion.2.6/services/s3.class.php on line 1221</blockquote>

For your issue, I need check it directly in your site since I can’t reproduce it in our system. So if possible, you can create a temporary admin account and pm to me so that I can help you further.
