I wanted to save a flexible layout that I've already customized so that I can use it on the other pages on my site. After hitting the save button, I get a pop up with the following message:

Unable to complete operation. Fatal error in modules_dir/panels/plugins/layouts/flexible/flexible.inc on line 1741: Call to undefined function ctools_export_crud_load()

Any idea what I might have done wrong during the installation? or anyone else encountered this problem?

Thanks!

I haven't heard of that one nor seen it. It could however be masked by difference in configuration.

A highly probable fix is this:

Just prior to the line that it is referencing, can you add this line: 

  ctools_include('export');

(Not with the PHP tags)

merlinofchaos, that worked!

Thanks!

Any reason why I need to add that snippet of code for it to work?

The function exists in ctools/includes/export.inc and that file needs to be included in order to be used.

It's possible that in all my tests, some other code path had already included it so I never crashed because it hadn't been, and your setup doesn't have something else causing it. I'll have to fix the code for this.

This problem just happened to be, into the line 1793 of the same file

I added the suggested code, and it worked

Thanks for the help, I foolishly left in the php tags and gasped at the errors, then I read you "not with php tags" note. As a further note, you can find your saved panel under "Misc" in the Panel layouts -> Category Dropdown. Thanks you saved me hours of work.

Note that the above line of code is actually in the version you specified, so I'm a little surprised that this hit you at all.
