Rules Debugger calls user_access() too early

Same here. I'm hitting this problem on most pages on my site.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_access() in /path/to/rules.module on line 916

Offending code:

/**
 * Implements hook_exit().
 */
function rules_exit() {
  if (variable_get('rules_debug', FALSE) || (user_access('administer rules') && RulesLog::logger()->hasErrors())) {
    if ($log = RulesLog::logger()->render()) {
      // Keep the log in the session so we can show it on the next page.
      $_SESSION['rules_debug'][] = $log;
    }
  }
}

Also, I have error reporting set to show no errors on screen, and this error message shows up at the bottom of my pages, after the closing </html> tag. See: http://www.midwesternmac.com/

Setting to needs review. Patch fixes the main issue, but I don't know if that's the ideal solution.

The solution is fine, though I think this can check should be improved anyway. Does the attached patch fix it for your too?

thanks, committed.

7.x-2.0-alpha5

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_access() in rules/rules.module on line 1006

"on line 1006"

thanks

I think there is the same error in latest version. This is the output in my error_log:
[Wed Feb 08 22:28:03 2012] [error] [client 89.137.*.*] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_access() in /drupal/sites/modules/rules/rules.module on line 1084, referer: http://everypage_of_my_site as anonymouse user

Curent config:
D 7.12
Rules 7.x-2.0

Debug mode on

I'm seeing the same thing. I'll see if I can find a fix unless someone else comes up with something before me. It's only when I have "cache blocks and/or cache pages anon visitors" on in the performance section. I'd really like to use Drupal's caching methods due to the amount of traffic on the site and load times. I've found that I'm seeing it every time someone hits the home page after they've been to the site...weird...I know.

My setup:

Drupal 7.12
Rules 7.20
A Bunch of other modules...

Web Server:
Apache 2
PHP 5.3.10 (cli)
MySQL 5.5
Mod_security 2.6.3

Please, always try the latest dev version and make sure the bug still exists there. If so, re-open.

I'm seeing this error (except on line 1194) with the current dev version.

I'm getting this too, line 1194. Started when I disabled a load of modules (using Admin Menu's "disable developer modules") and then found I had to re-enable many for Drupal Commerce to work.

A visit to http://sitename/admin/modules seems to have cleared the problem.

Hello,

I have the same problem, among others, with both the regular (7.x-2.1) and dev (7.x-2.x-dev) versions of Rules + release 7.12 of core.
See here for a more detailed account: http://drupal.org/node/1068168#comment-5870496

Cheers,

I ran into this on a production site. I set the "Show debug information" setting to "Never" on this page: /admin/config/workflow/rules/settings

Since the site is on production, I didn't need to show debug information anyway... Hope this helps some of you!

Also getting this problem. What can I provide to assist in debug? We're running:
1. Latest Rules7.x-2.x dev
2. A permissions module called field_permissions
3. Variable
...nothing else too tricky.
The patch in #21 looks stalled?
Do the maintainers feel this issue was resolved back in #8?

@boabjohn: Did you test the patch?

@Shnapoo: It's probably best you create a new issue and backreference this one so that each commit is atomic. I'll leave this issue open in the meantime for any incoming test reports.

@Shnapoo: Thank you for clarifying. I didn't see that #6 was only a refactoring. #21 looks to be what's needed.

I'd be happy to test if I knew how to reproduce this, but that's where we're at now. Tests wanted.

rules_exit.patch queued for re-testing.

Confirm that bug exists in 2.2

Thanks a lot, it worked for me !
This error only appeared in IE, not in Firefox

I have the same problem:

PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function user_access() in /var/webs/drupal/sites/all/modules/rules/rules.module on line 1194

I am using Rules 7.x-2.3. The version is newer than the patch, what am I supposed to do than?

The strange thing is, that I am running that site for a long time and the error occurs (as far as I see) as from today. It seems to break the cron.

Looks like the problem is rules_exit() not taking into account that it runs for cached page requests. Please test whether the attached patch does the trick.

I agree, same problem. I start getting the error when using cache for anonymous.

although no testers reported whether #30 does the job, I think it does, so I went ahead and committed it.

the patch in #30 seems to have made my error go away.
