On some occasions, I get a phptemplate_username error. The only reproducible occasion I've seen is when you get a locked document error from the checkout module.

error:
* warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, 'phptemplate_username' was given in /var/www/includes/theme.inc on line 597.
* This document is locked for editing by since September 3, 2008 - 15:04.

The theme call looks right to me: $username = theme('username', $lock);
and the realname phptemplate_username function is never called.

More thought about this: are error messages generated before the theming code is loaded?

You need to clear the cache to reset the themeing system. Try admin >> site configuration >> performance or Devel.

Hi,

Strangely I'm getting the same error as follows:

warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, 'phptemplate_username' was given in /home/public_html/includes/theme.inc on line 617.

This only happens with http://drupal.org/project/path_access

Perhaps any suggestions please?

Look forward to hearing from you.
Lilian

UPDATE FIXED: Done by disabling 'Override username theme', rebuilding permissions and emptying cache :)

I got the same message when I upgraded from Acquia Slate 6.x-1.4 to 6.x-2.0. To further complicate matters, after I moved my website from localhost to my test site, I can no longer login to my website.

I noticed your previous comment to empty cache (I have cache disabled). I'm not sure how to "override username theme" and "rebuild permissions."

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Mike

Using the setting to disable the cache does not stop all caching. Go to admin/settings/performance and click the button to clear the cache. Or go into the database and TRUNCATE all cache tables.
