Concrete5: Problems when adding a new block type

Question

I've just made a new installation of concrete (5.6), and all of a sudden I'm failing Concrete 101's.

I created a new block type, when I went to install it I got this...

Warning: require_once(/...[concrete root].../concrete/blocks/basic_test/controller.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /...[concrete root].../concrete/core/models/block_types.php on line 824

I eventually deleted my block and copied across the basic_test block (http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/developers/blocks/understanding-and-building-blocks-in-concrete5).

To my surprise the error persisted.

I'm placing my blocks where I always have concrete root /blocks yet for some reason its looking for resources under concrete root /concrete/blocks.

Now I'm just confused at having failed so completely at such a simple task. Thanks in advance.

There is a bug In 5.6.0 related to the new overrides cache. It was fixed in the 5.6.0.1 point release, so upgrading should resolve the issue. Or you can turn off the override cache in the dashboard if you don't want to upgrade.

I updated to 5.6.0.1, didn't work, then turned off the overrides cache which solved the issue. Thanks kindly – osnoz Sep 18 '12 at 17:54
You should be able to clear the cache to resolve this in 5.6.0.1. – Korvin Szanto Sep 19 '12 at 03:59

My steps to fix this exception:

Turn off override and basic cache
Uninstall "corrupt" package
Clear cache
Delete your block row from the "BlockTypes" table VERY IMPORTANT
Reinstall package
