Description

Hi,

I've just been testing Tiki to see if it will suit my needs. Came across the following bug in tiki-edit_templates.php whenever I tried to edit any templates or CCS.

Whenever I tried to click on the Edit Button for templates I got the following error:

PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of XXX bytes exhausted (tried to allocate XX bytes) in tiki-5.1/lib/init/initlib.php on line 185

System setup

System: FreeBSD 8.1
Web Server: Apache 2.2.16
Php: 5.3.3

Key issue was when looking for templates to list - around line 112 in tiki-edit_templates.php. The code would get stuck in an endless loop trying to get the files a directory that failed to open, exhausting stack size. The following directories would attempt to be opened:

tiki-5.1/templates - opened OK
tiki-5.1/templatesmodules - failed to open causing loop to get stuck.

The templatesmodules directory would fail to open.

Solution

Key fix is to encase the opendir when listing templates in an if statement. I found that for some reason on FreeBSD if a directory failed to open the readdir loop ran infinitely.
