fatal error on delete story; failed opening required modules/node/module_grants.pages.inc

Ok, closing.
Sounds like your server had no read access (insufficient permissions?) to module_grants.pages.inc... Or the file somehow got deleted?

Hi,

I just stumbled across the same error while attempting to delete a forum-post:

PHP Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'modules/nod
e/module_grants.pages.inc' (include_path='.:/usr/pkg/share/php:/usr/pkg/share/php-jpgraph:/usr/pkg/share/drupal:/usr/pkg/lib/php') in /usr/pkg/share/drupal/includes/menu.inc on line 346

I am using this version: module_grants-6.x-3.6.tar.gz

Please take a look at the path in the error-message: it's pointing into the drupal-core itself, into drupal's own node-module, where there cannot be a module_grants.pages.inc file.

A dirty workaround for me atm was to copy / link the file into modules/node - but for obvious reasons that's no solution.

Because of my previous comment, in which I forgot to switch the status to "needs work", I do switch the state now.

Please take a look at the problem, thank you very much.

Our users are unable to delete nodes and we get the same error message. Since we are using Revisioning with workflows, we are dependent on Module Grants, so turning it off is not an option for normal use just to delete an unwanted page or other node.

Sorry to read this beanc.
As a workaround I would follow the suggestion from Mjoellnir, that is to copy the module_grants.pages.inc file from the sites/all/modules/module_grants directory to the modules/node directory.
That should get you across the hump for now.

I merely created a symlink to the appropriate file, which works, but, I don't know what will happen when the core gets updated, I would assume it would be removed. (I use drush for my updates.)

I believe this is fixed in 6.x-3.6

This is still an issue in 3.7.

I attached a patch to fix this...

Thanks so much Ozmodiar!

Patch checked into Git branch 6.x-3.x.
Will be available in next development snapshots, i.e. 27-Jan-2012 and later.

3.8 still produce this bug for me.
First of all i see that you use 'file_path' key in your patch. But according to http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/developer%21hooks%21core.php/function/h... it should be 'file path' (with space, not underline).
Also i suggest to define that filepath instead of removing it.

I propose this patch for fix.

Thank you systray -- well-spotted!
Hope to find time to check in you patch soon.
