I installed new joomlapack and made backups as 1000 times before with previous versions. But when I try to start kickstart at my localhost (I use latest xampp on linux-Ubuntu) I get following messages:

Than I extract backup manualy and start installation process and still I get following errors:

Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /opt/lampp/htdocs/smrekovit/libraries/pattemplate/patTemplate.php on line 1424

I tried to install fresh joomla as well and it works fine.

Please help.

What version of php are you using? Neither Joomla! nor JoomlaPack is compatible with php 5.3. I know 5.3 is available in Debian Squeeze, I can't imagine that Ubuntu would have added it yet, but the "depreciated" messages occur with 5.3.

Furthermore, I can't work around the "Strict Standards" notices without braking PHP4 support. Believe it or not, there are still many people on PHP4 and I can't leave them out on the cold. I will, eventually, but not just yet.

The second batch of errors (appearing either in JPI3 or in Joomla! itself) are the result of Joomla! not being compatible with PHP 5.3. Yes, even JPI3 makes use of the standard Joomla! libraries. So, for now, either use the latest PHP 5.2.x or set your PHP error reporting to a much lower level in php.ini. In the latter case, be warned that Joomla! behavior will range from funky to outright broken. As I said, Joomla! IS NOT compatible with PHP 5.3 yet. There is ongoing work to achieve this, but it's still "not there" yet.

Thanks for answers. It is true: xampp (lampp) uses php 5.3. But I still doesnt understand why fresh joomla install works?

Secondly I have no Idea how to set xampp to earlier version of php. I am pretty new on working with virtual server (semi new on joomla!).

Any help?

Unfortunately, XAMPP doesn't offer a downgrade procedure for its PHP installation. You can, however, do one of the following:
1. Download the ZIP binary distribution of PHP and extract it inside XAMPP's PHP directory. This should work in principle, I have not tested it myself.
2. Use WampServer. It does use PHP 5.3.0, but you can download the PHP 5.2.9-2 self-installable package, then click on WampServer's tray icon, go to PHP and select PHP 5.2.9 instead of the default PHP 5.3.0. I have personally tested this and it's working.

About your comment with fresh Joomla! installation, I think that the fresh Joomla! installation doesn't make use of any menu items etc which conflict with PHP 5.3.0. If you try to add articles and administer this blank site, you'll witness the PHP 5.3.0 hell.

As a side note, Joomla! 1.5.15 will support PHP 5.3.0 without any workarounds, however you'll have to lower the error reporting level to "Simple" or "None", otherwise you'll experience Strict Standards notices. The source of these notices is the PHP 4 compatibility we, as developers, are forced to maintain on our software. When hosts decide to ditch PHP 4, we'll be able to move on and get rid of those notices as well.

Hi. I somehow managed to get lamp working in ubuntu (through synaptic) and the errors are gone. Ubuntu doesnt use php 5.3, so the problem is php 5.3 for sure.

Now I have different problem. Css doesnt seems to appear right.
I use http://localhost/mysite/ path. And .htaccess rewrite base is set to /mysite/

Should I open new topic or shall we continue there?

dlb
The css problem is probably caused because your $live_site variable in the configuration.php file is blank. Edit configuration.php and add your site url (localhost/mysite) to the $live_site variable.

The new thread/same thread question is a tough one. If I figure it out, I'll let you know. :lol:

I set livesite like you said,
tried to disable .htaccess.
Disabled sh404sef as well
cache of smart optimizer went to trash
shortly; everything

still no change on my frontend. Just for information backend is OK completly.

Previous times I used joomlapack, every such problem was connected with sh404sef cache or .htaccess

Any more ideas?

dlb
The "no css" really sounds like a $live_site problem. The one that I found on this machine was 'http://localhost/joomla'. I didn't remember the "http://" earlier.

It realy isnt live_site problem. I changed it and site remains the same. There must be different problem.

Maybe something with smartoptimizer?

And sorry for late response (lack of time - children :))

p.s.
administration (backend) is OK

dlb
I like Kunena less and less. :x

http : / / is a magic word that the forum software strips out. A useless feature at best, very very bad for a technical support environment. I was trying to tell you that I found that protocol string as part of my $live_site variable on my old site.

I'll flag this for Nicholas to see if he has a different suggestion.

I think that Dale is correct. I don't understand what "smartoptimizer" refers to. If you're talking about SEO URL's then, yes, this may be the problem. Try turning it off to see if your site works, but only after you have changed the live_site parameter in configuration.php.

Found a solution. In my templates index I needed to change link to css files. Strange It works ok on the startlogic server.

Paths and permissions are the two things that give you grief on a new server. I'm glad you got it fixed. :D

Hi Folks,

just to give a little back, here are my 2 Cents abut this topic:

If you want to use the XAMP-Environment for testing with JoomlaPack, use V. 1.7 !

This one works and doesn't throw any errors, as the afore mentioned ones.

To get the older Version, you just have to take a little care, whilst clicking through the apache friend's site.
Somewhere a link for older versions on the sourceforge site of this project is displayed.
You use this or browse sourceforge; get V. 1.7 and go testing ...

Best Regards

MX

Be aware that XAMPP 1.7 is using PHP 5.3.0. As of Joomla! 1.5.14, this may cause trouble with menu items not working, "component not found" errors and the like. These will be addressed in Joomla! 1.5.15. JoomlaPack should work, YMMV.
