Login & Register buttons produce blank pop-up?

Hello,

I just setup the Music template on http://alpha.spunkee.org/ I setup the "Login", "Register", and "Search" buttons at the top same way they are in the quickstart. However when I click on "Login" or on "Register" I get a pop-up window that is empty and does not contain the login/registration form.

How do I get this to work?

I don't understand why but I changed the system debug level from "System Default" to "Basic" and both buttons started working! I then changed it back to "System Default" and it continues to work.

Not sure what exactly got stuck and unstuck by this.

Ok I think I found a bug. Can anyone reproduce this?

Joomla 1.7.3
Music Template (any version including current)

In the backend: Site -> Global Configuration -> System -> Error Reporting

Set Error reporting to "Maximum" or "Developer". Try using the login/register links. I get a blank pop-up every time. Setting error reporting to "None" or "Simple" gets it to work again.

Could you paste here your Joomla error log ? Probably there we can find more informations.

The log was empty with no errors. However I did discover that GK cache plugin was enabled without Joomla's cache being enabled. I think this was partly to blame.

Ok! So I got an apache error log that is repeating this:

Code: Select all: [Fri Jan 20 21:27:02 2012] [error] [client 172.16.16.200] PHP Notice: Undefined variable: text in /sites/spunkee.org/alpha_html/templates/gk_music/error.php on line 28

It was saying "undefined offset" on line 28 but I added a webmaster address to the backend of the template and that cleared up that part of the error. But I do not understand where $text is supposed to come from in the error.php file.

Line 28 is:

Code: Select all: $webmaster_contact_email = substr_replace($text, $replacement, $regs[0][1], strlen($regs[0][0]));

Again, Joomla is not producing a log. I don't know if that is because it breaks on this error before it makes the log or what.

I am using the latest version of gk_music and the Jomsocial gk_style that came with it with JS 2.4.2. There are other bugs in 2.4.2 JS so hopefully this isn't somehow going to lead back to that.
