[Midas] error message

[Michael Grauer]

Hi Mona,

Anything in the logs or your Apache logs?

It makes sense that you are getting a blank page since you disabled your
layout and view.  If you want to put some debug statements in as you work
through this, you can comment out those lines, then add them back once you
get the problem resolved.  My initial guess here is that it is related to a
permissions issue.  You are trying to create a file in /tmp, which on my
system is owned by root, but using the apache user (www-data on my system),
who wouldn't have permissions there.

Can you try creating a path based on $this->getTempDirectory() in your
controller (this method is inherited from the GlobalController) and see if
that works?  Your apache user should have the right perms there.  BTW,
perms are what people who are too lazy to write permissions write.

-Mike
