Hi,
I got problem. I had no problem until last weekend and now when trying to open site as guest I'm geting
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Temp directory seems not writable' in \htdocs\sites\all\modules\phpids\IDS\Caching\File.php:130 Stack trace: #0 \htdocs\sites\all\modules\phpids\IDS\Filter\Storage.php(264): IDS_Caching_File->setCache(Array) #1 \htdocs\sites\all\modules\phpids\IDS\Filter\Storage.php(107): IDS_Filter_Storage->getFilterFromXML() #2 \htdocs\sites\all\modules\phpids\IDS\Monitor.php(185): IDS_Filter_Storage->__construct(Object(IDS_Init)) #3 \htdocs\sites\all\modules\phpids\phpids.module(83): IDS_Monitor->__construct(Array, Object(IDS_Init)) #4 [internal function]: phpids_init() #5 \htdocs\includes\module.inc(471): call_user_func_array('phpids_init', Array) #6 \htdocs\includes\common.inc(2567): module_invoke_all('init') #7 \htdocs\includes\bootstrap.inc(1070): _drupal_bootstrap_full() #8 \htdocs\includes\bootstrap.inc(981): _drupal_bootstrap(8) #9 W:\WEB\htdocs\index.php(16): drupal_bootstrap(8) #10 {main} thrown in \htdocs\sites\all\modules\phpids\IDS\Caching\File.php on line 130
If I disable PHPIDS - no problems. I've not chenge any persmissions. For File.php persmission is 666.
Any suggestions ? Thanks.

Sry that answer took so long, I was travelling aorund a little bit ;)
Please reset the File.php permissions to 644 and check the permissions of the used phptmp directory (also configured in PHPIDS module settings) and/or create under your phptmp a writable directory named phpids.
PHPIDS needs this temp directory to create caching data. I hope this helps a little bit.

I too have this problem. I returned all files to their original settings. I opened IDS and configured tmp to 666. I don't really understand what you said:
"check the permissions of the used phptmp directory (also configured in PHPIDS module settings) and/or create under your phptmp a writable directory named phpids."
what is this used phptmp directory? I have a directory called tmp. Is that what you are referring to?
In case it was, I opened IDS/tmp/ and created IDS/tmp/phpids which I set to 666. It exists as a directory ONLY if I leave IDS/tmp set to 777, if I revert IDS/tmp to 666, ftp fails to retrieve a directory listing for the /tmp directory and when looking at it in legacy file manager, IDS/tmp/phpids shows up as a directory ONLY if it's parent (IDS/tmp) is set to 777.
I followed the readme to the letter, and honestly, I am feeling stupid that I cannot get it to work...
Thanks in advance, for now I am pulling off the phpid mod folders to regain access to my site

phptmp = Their is a configured tmp-directory (named upload_tmp_dir) set in your php configuration of your webhost. Check your phpinfo() output to get its full qualified path. If its possible create in this tmp-directory a directory named phpids. Otherwise you have to take the tmp-directory in phpids-module directory.
Take a look at:
Site Configuration -> Logging and Alerts -> PHPIDS settings
Their you can set the PHP-IDS Temp Path. For example your phptmp-path + phpids (example: /var/www/phptmp/phpids) or you can use tmp-directory from phpids module (example: /var/www/htdocs/sites/all/modules/phpids/tmp). Allways your configured tmp-directory needs 770 or 777 permissions, better are 770 permissions. You have to enter allways the full qualified path of your tmp-directory.
I hope these informations help you a little bit.

Thanks for the reply. As I don't have access to set the tmp-directory on my webhost I would have to do ir within Site configuration. Unfortunately I cannot access my site if phpids module is in the modules directory, and if it is not I have no way to edit the temp path.
Is there a way to manually edit a file in the phpids module to specify a temp path prior to upload?
Thanks in advance!

The quick and dirty way:
- move phpids directory out of the way so you can log back in on your site. (mv phpids ../)
- access admin, disable phpids module
- move phpids back to where ever you installed it. At this step verify proper permissions (770 etc etc)
- reenable phpids module from admin
- set correct tmp path. (Full path and instructions as Gos77 mentioned in his post).
Good luck.

thx wladimir.f .. my created post is eaten up by a disconnected websession some days ago.
Only thing I could add: Check PHPIDS install- and configstatus under admin -> reports -> status after installing and configuration PHPIDS before logging out as admin.

I have tried the options above and i still cannot get drupal to recognize the phpids install. i have tried with the phpids download in the modules/phpids/phpids dir as well as in /usr/share/php/phpids . I have the temp dir at /tmp/php/phpids which i am not getting any error about. When i was first tryign to install the module i was gettin WSOD's but i believe that was because of the permissions problem. I changes the phpids permissions to 770 and the tmp dir to 777 and drupal still refuses to find the phpids directory.
path: /usr/share/php/phpids-0.6.1.1/lib
temp: /tmp/php/phpids
I have full root access to the server. Running Ubuntu, phptemp dir set to /tmp/php . I am also getting these errors in my log:
closedir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/public_html/drupal/shamce.net/sites/all/modules/cvs_deploy/cvs_deploy.module on line 190.

My cvs_deploy module has good permissions so im not sure why its not able to access the files. or even why its accessing that module in the first place.

Hello bigmack83,
path and permissions seems to be looking good for me.
Have your tried to deactivate the cvs_deploy module?

If I disable my cvs_deploy module i am unable to see updates for my modules on the updates page as they are installed via drush which I cannot do at the moment because drush has a current bug when being used with pressflow (so i would have no idea when my updates are available)
#10
I think the problem is coming only from your cvs_deploy module. If you could try to deactivate the cvs_deploy module for a moment, then I think you'll get no errors. Give it a try ;)
And I think the error appears because directory "sites/all/modules/phpids/phpids" isn't their because this directory makes no sense for me. This should be only "sites/all/modules/phpids".

feedback needed .. otherwise issue will be closed in 2 weeks
