Geeklog Forums

Anyone managed to install Filemgmt 1.3RC3 Beta (http://www.portalparts.com/filemgmt/singlefile.php?lid=21) with Geeklog 1.3.10?

I can't get it to work.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I have Filemgmt 1.3RC3 Beta installed but I have the files password protected using Apache dbm module. When you say you can't get it to work, what does it show, errors, etc.? This will give me a better idea. Always make a backup of your database when adding plugins or doing any kind of database changes.

I downloaded "Filemgmt 1.3RC3 Beta", read the installation instructions and did as was told in it. I went to the install url and this text was displayed:

Install/Uninstall Plugin

The Plugin is Not Installed

[Install button]

I clicked on the install button and a blank page was displayed.

This is what's in error.log:

The plugin is still not installed and I can't get it to work.

Please help me...thanks.

I tried to recreate the problem you had and couldn't figure it out without really looking at how you installed it. Check to see if you have all the filemgmt tables in your database. They should be gl_filemgmt_broken, gl_filemgmt_category, gl_filemgmt_downloadhistory, gl_filemgmt_filedecs, gl_filemgmt_filedetail, and gl_filemgmt_votedata.

Thanks for replying.

Yes, those tables are there in the database.

It seems like something stopped the addition to the admin filemgmt user. Check to see under "Groups" if you see filemgmt Admin. Also are you running your own server or someone else hosting it?

No, it's not my own server.

Under "Groups", I have:

FileMgmt-Admin (Users in this group can administer the Filemgmt plugin)
FileMgmt-Users (Users in this group can use the Filemgmt plugin)


Also, this is how I set up the files on the server, maybe it will help:

In public_html/filemgmt:

folders: custom, images, include
files: brokenfile.php, downloadhistory.php, index.php,ratefile.php,singlefile.php, submit.php, viewcat.php, visit.php

***********************

public_html/admin/plugins/filemgmt

files: index.php, install.php, upgrade_v1.2_to_v1.3.php


***********************

outside public_html

/******/plugins/filemgmt/

folders: custom, language, sql, templates

files: config.php, filemgmt.php, functions.inc, install_doc.html

***********************

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for telling me what files you moved over into your installation. That helped. I noticed that you have Custom directory in your public-html, which shouldn't be there. Based on that, I would delete and recopy all of files moved over just to make sure you have everything in place. Also, if you plan on reinstalling, restore your old database backup and redo the installation. I hope this helps.

I just did that, but it still is giving me the same result.

I am really lost on this one, I tried to install it several times but I can't get it to work.

Thanks for your help...much appreciated.

I'm at a lost too. It should work providing that everything else is correctly installed. What does your $_CONF['have_pear'] under your config.php files say?

Everything else works fine.

Here is the part about that pear:
