Hi Earl,
I think my bug is complementary to this one:http://drupal.org/node/352804, because you also refer to the ids.

Trying to get to the cache settings on admin/build/delegator/[panel_name]/[panel_name]_panel_context/content
I got the following on the little panel-pane add screen:

Invalid display id.

On all content panel-panes I got

Error
Invalid input

Hope this bugreports helps you.

Greetings,
Martijn

Added proper Reference (I am having simular issue)
#352804: Delegator/Panels issue

ize’s picture

Version: 6.x-1.x-dev » 6.x-1.0-beta3

I have the same problem. Maybe it has something to do with localization AND postgres - I could reproduce it on a brand new non-English (Hungarian) postgresql installation (with only CTools, Delegator and Panels switched on). English postgres and non-English mysql combinations both worked well.

Ize changed the version, I am no longer with that current setup, so please remove me from the issue. Oh, and I am not using postgres!

I have a similar problem!

I created a new mini-panel using the panel module.
When i click the plus button of the center region trying to add a content to the region, I get the error window :
Error:
Invalid input

I try to tracked the whole action and find the following http request:
POST /~**/drupal/panels/ajax/add-pane/6/center HTTP/1.1

I am confused, Why I can't find the path "/drupal/panels/ajax/" ?

I am a beginner to drupal ,wish your help!

Hi all,

i had the same problem using postgreSql and i found http://drupal.org/node/322756 where the problem was similar. So the problem comes from the cTools module in ctools_object_cache_get function. As you can see, new lines in postgresql in a different manner so you must decode these line breaks using : db_decode_blob.
So in Ctools module, do this:

-      $cache[$key] = unserialize($data->data);
+     $cache[$key] = unserialize(db_decode_blob($data->data));

and after admin page seems to work fine.
Hope this helps.

#4 doesn't seem that similar. #5 doesn't seem that similar.

The Invalid Display ID problem that I've found only currently happens with exported panels. I'm not sure how much of this is relevant anymore.

I am using panels and have updated from a previous version to rc1 and I'm getting the same errors as above. I'm using simply mysql and had no problems earlier.

When I try to modify an existing pane under variants - content. I see the views I had associated but when I click settings I get Invalid pane id.

When I click add content I get invalid input.

I thought perhaps something didn't get transitioned right with this particular panel page and when I tried to create a new one I also got the invalid input error whenever I tried to add content.

Let me know what I can do to further troubleshoot this.

Do you see errors in watchdog/php/apache/http error logs when this happens?

robbt’s picture

I don't see any errors in watchdog or displayed via PHP on the site.
Just invalid input when I try to add content and invalid pane id when I try to go into the settings for the content that is already in the existing panel page.

For some reason the panel pages also don't have the name for the view, or else the views weren't properly named, just mentioning this in case it would be relevant.

Any new information on this? I've got the same problem and can't find a way to solve it.

I have ran into this problem again on my server and I have a new suspicion that it may be the workaround that I have set-up for mod-rewrite to work with lighttpd. I moved the same database+files to another server running apache and panels worked fully. Here is the link to the hack I used to get lighttpd to work. http://hostingfu.com/article/running-drupal-with-clean-url-on-nginx-or-l...

Is there a chance that some AJAX is incompatible with the way my server handles clean-urls ? Or does the AJAX completely work directly beyond the URL level ?

Either way I'd still like to try to fix this.

I had the same problem; but I just updated Panels to panels-6.x-3.4 and it appear to work now *knock on wood*

Given the age of the issue, and that the last poster seems to have not had the problem with the most recent release, I'm closing the issue.

Hi, I'm re-opening this issue because I get the invalid pane id message on a lot of sites. I use exported panel pages on all of them.

The latest example, I uploaded an image to a pane, saved it, when I try to access the settings (via the in place editor) it says 'invalid pane id' and my only option is to delete the pane.

What seems to prevent this from happening though, is when I override the title to something else.

Please don't reopen issues for way out of date versions, especially when they've been closed for nearly 6 months. can you open a new issue, with the correct version, and possibly some more details like exports of pages that aren't working, exact copies of the error message, and that kind of stuff? It's really better to separate that stuff out from older problems that have likely since been fixed.

Ok, thanks, I copied my issue text to a new issue. http://drupal.org/node/991358
