Description

I'm encountering this error when I enter the site for the first time for the day - when I refresh the site loads normally and is not encountered again to say the next day/week/session ?
The problem only occurred after installing notifications after all others listed below. Notifications and all modules work normally.

Has anyone seen this issue?

I'm having this error too on occasion, as are many other modules apparently. #570060: Call to undefined function drupal_get_path() seems to have the most helpful description of how to fix it (has to do with hook_init).

StephenFresh, what time does your cron run? Cron seems to trigger it because of partial bootstrapping.

thanks Kwinters it's been a while - but I assume it's still there yes that explains my issue as I'm using poormanscron and it triggers when a user visits after a certain amount of hours (hence first morning visit brings the error).

I'm not sure how to apply their hacks to my issue I can guess but wont test yet.
Shall post again if I a get a hack fix and look out if you get one also.
Hope you get it sorted.
