Contrib Installer

Recommended Posts

Thanks for quick reply. I am using Contrib_Installer_1.0.14. If contrib does not exist why does it confirm install.xml file ok. The contrib exists as indicated by the error but when installing it seems to include "//"

 

/home/default/netxonline.co.uk/user/htdocs/catalog/admin/contributions/Article_Manager-1.2.b/catalog/article_info.php

 

Directory permission is 755

 

I'm also getting this with all the other contributions. i must be missing something really obvious. help

To stiksandstones:

 

To remove by hands:

1. open browser

2. open phpMyAdmin or similar (to operate with MySQL database)

3. Open your database in it.

4. Run sql-commands (in phpMyAdmin tab has the name "SQL"):

 

DELETE FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Contrib Installer';
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_title = 'Contribution Directory';
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'TEXT_LINK_FORUM';
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'TEXT_LINK_CONTR';

 

This is SQL statments. You never find it in php-code!!!

Look for it in database.

After Contrib Installer checks a permissions that he checks a conflicts.

At this stage you get an error.

I've looked in code and can tell you this chacks if this file exists:

if (!is_file(MODULE_CONTRIB_INSTALLER_DIR_FS_CONTRIBUTIONS . $contrib . '/catalog/' . $t_array[$loop_index]['FILE'][0]['@']['NAME'])) {
						error (FILE_NOT_EXISTS_TEXT." (addfile #".($loop_index+1)."): ".
								MODULE_CONTRIB_INSTALLER_DIR_FS_CONTRIBUTIONS . $contrib . '/catalog/' . $t_array[$loop_index]['FILE'][0]['@']['NAME']."<br>");
				}

 

So you check please if file that must be added really exists at right place and check if this file readable for script which is running with rights of Apache (web-server) - nobody/nobody.

 

Name of contrib must be in this part of code. May be you have some different server settings for PHP.

Sorry, I don't know. Try to change a Contrib Installer code to see where is an error...

I think I have found the problem. The instructions say you should copy the contributions .zip file to /contributions or extract .zip file and put into /contributions folder. When you do this, the "catalog" folder of the contribution to be installed is then within a subfolder under the /contributions folder and so the installation fails with the error I have been getting because it expects the catalog folder to be in the root of /contributions.

 

e.g. we want to install Contrib_Installer_DE so we place Contrib_Installer_DE.x.x.zip into our contributions folder

----Catalog

-------------Admin

--------------------Contributons >-Contrib_Installer_DE.x.x.zip

 

Contrib Installer will unzip this file and create a folder under the /Contributions folder... so...

 

----Catalog

-------------Admin

--------------------Contributons

-----------------------------------Contrib_Installer_DE.x.x.

The installer the seems to want to find the contributions files in the root of /contributions where as they are actually in the root of /contributions/Contrib_Installer_De.x.x

Once i realised this and copied files to the root of /contributions everything works and I no longer get the // error

:rolleyes:

 

With regards to the Admin Acess contrib... where is the .sql file?

I have a question about my installation of Contrib Installer 1.0.14a

 

I have gotten the following error and I am not sure how to fix the problem.

 

 

1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax near '; ' at line 7

 

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `contrib_installer` ( `ID` int(4) NOT NULL auto_increment PRIMARY KEY, `line_number` int(5) unsigned default NULL, `file` varchar(255) default NULL, `contrib_name` varchar(255) default NULL );

[CONTRIB INSTALLER TEP STOP]

 

You help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

 

I am having a problem installing easy populator from contrib installer.

I get

 

No query tag in sql section #9

 

No remove query necessary for SQL query:

 

I have looked in the xml file and it all looks ok to me but I am not totally clued up on these things. Tried versions 2.8 and 2.79a of EP same problem with both.

 

Any help would be appreciated

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

I am having a problem installing easy populator from contrib installer.

I get

 

No query tag in sql section #9

 

No remove query necessary for SQL query:

 

 

Just look back a few post - i had the same problem, obviously contribution installer checks for empty remove tags - wich not really is very convinient, but makes sense somehow -

 

You have to fill evry remove_Query tag with a nonsens SQL Stemement - like Vlad made the point:

 

for example <remove_Query>SELECT 1;</remove_query> wich does nothing but its a correct statement.

 

regards

Thanks but it doesn't fix it as there are no empty remove tags....

 

it seems to be a problem with the SQL tags...ie the no query tag bit....so when it reads that it then says you don't need the remove statement.

 

I will have another look at it but again any help would be appreciated

 

thanks

Hello Rinon,

 

Tried installing the All Products 2.8. What I did was I just dropped the entire folder into my admin/contributions folder. Then I went to the admin menu and clicked install. The problem is that I am getting the following:

 

Checking permissions: (addfile #1) I need write permission for: /home/reefthin/public_html/

 

I have tried changing permissions to 777 but I keep on getting the same result.

 

Can you help?

 

Thank you

When you upload files by FTP you may have a file owner and group different from web-server rights. Check it.

Use Contrib Installer 1.0.14a (not 1.0.14)

File NOT exists (addfile #1): /home/default/netxonline.co.uk/user/htdocs/catalog/admin/contributions//catalog/admin/easypopulate.php

 

I have found the same problem after recompiling Apache, PHP and MySQL.

This message appears if register_globals:Off

If register_globals:On - all works fine.

 

So Contrib Installer not works correctly when register_globals:Off!!!

 

Solution:

1. Use htaccess to enable register_globals (I don't know exectly how)

2. Wait for Contrib Installer update.

Uploaded Contrib Installer 1.0.15

 

Changes since 1.0.14a:

- Added in addcode_xml_check()

($t_array[$loop_index]['FINDLINENUMBERS'][0]['@']['TYPE'] != 'continued' or

$t_array[$loop_index]['FINDLINENUMBERS'][0]['@']['TYPE'] != 'new'))

So we can use both type="new" and type="continued".

 

- Fixed bug. When register_globals is Off Contrib Installer losts the contrib name at the installation time.

Now the contrib name is a function parameter for each function in this files:

conflicts_check.php

permissions_check.php

xml_check.php

tag_actions.php (here is a function call)

i've got this problem when I install the script

when i paste the code in phpmyadmin the table is created but not with the script. Someone have an idea?

ok Vlad just some quick thoughts, as somebody who will hopefully be adding many CIPs as I come across them:

 

1) I was thinking about the install of CIPs on existing modified systems, would one solution be to allow people to somehow run a limited xml file for the contribs they know that are installed? This would add the entries in to the database with the appropriate details, and therefore they could be checked, I know this would only work for those contribs with an existing CIP, unless the person wanted to develop this themselves, but would resolve the issue of existing store setups potentially.

 

2) How do you do resolves for conflicts in files? When there are two contribs trying to alter the same file? Would there be anyway to write case scenarios (i.e. if sts_output_html.php exists then use code case a if not then use code case B)? Mind you I suppose that is difficult with multiple contribs anyway....

 

Currently I am using a file versioning system to allow me to control my package installs locally which i then "check in " and "check out" to edit, and then upload when complete. So I am not sure if CIP is a better solution or not... I love the idea but not sure if its easier to manually code some things, especially when you have multiple installs that overlap, and use a versioning system instead...

Hi. Looks like a great module to me.

How can i search contributions that is made for this installer?

 

 

I would like to know this too... can you tell us where you will store this info please?

Seems like there is more than one of us with this problem. Is this a problem with this contrib or is there a conflict that's not being recognized?
