Successive problems 1.5.6 to 1.5.6.1 and vQMod

Quote

Post by bunnybooboo » Sat Mar 22, 2014 10:14 pm

I have upgraded to 1.5.6.1 and it appears for it to work I have had to also reinstall any modules after the upgrade went fine via Sofaculous. Really the only one I have used is vQMod. I certainly worked out that I needed to rename my admin folder back to 'admin' and then just change it back. And then reinstate the backed up config files.

This then gets the shop back but the admin backend remains a blank page and any adjustment I've done via the header template or vqmodxml files not showing. After even trying to use the config from the shop in the admin folder it does not fix it. Another thread mentions the correct config setting and I note their example has

Code: Select all

// DIR
define('DIR_APPLICATION', '/home/mysite/public_html/shop/mynewname/');
...which defines the admin folder. I didn't have this defined in the old config file so why now?

I change that and then there is a fatal class error unable to find class 'play'. Play is found in system/library and I reuploaded in case there was some error and it still has the same error.

I can see somewhere along the line something has been messed up. I'm not sure where (vqmod or the upgrade to 1.5.6.1) and right now I just need to work to get this resolved. Can I do a clean install and then later configure the old database into the clean and working 1.5.6.1 ?

Seems WAY too complex to me. Anyways.. HELP brain hurts :-\

Hi bunnybooboo,

That sounds a little messed up. Send me your sites cpanel details via a PM and I'll take a look and fix it for you.

The config.php file in admin folder has 3 entries pointing to admin folder:

Code: Select all

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://your_url/NEW_ADMIN/');

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://your_url/NEW_ADMIN/');

define('DIR_APPLICATION', 'REAL_PATH/TO/FOLDER/NEW_ADMIN/');
Note: When SSl installed, change HTTPS_SERVER into https://your_url/NEW_ADMIN/

Note2: When using vQmod, edit vqmod/pathReplaces.php
Add:

Code: Select all

$replaces[] = array('~^admin\b~', 'NEW_ADMIN');
Where NEW_ADMIN is renamed admin-folder

Not sure what happened but vqmod error logs show it can not find the renamed admin folder.

Changing that in the SHOP config.php leaves the blank page even with a browser cache reset. I presume that's the one to change as admin shows when navigating to it in my browser.

Mel,
Thanks for the offer of help via cpanel. I'm not in the habit of allowing access to cpanel though as one can gain access to numerous database logins and other secure information that took much effort to setup.

I'm thinking my time will be better spent doing a backup and new install of open cart. Here goes.

Hi bunnybooboo,

I completely understand re: the cpanel access & security concerns, but I'm sure you'd understand how having access to the code & data makes bug fixing much easier.

If you get stuck, how about you zip up your website and extract the database (but change your passwords etc.) and send me the link to those files.

I'm still happy to help if needed.

I fixed it with a clean install and restore of the database. On closer inspection somehow what was missing was the 'catalog/' from

Code: Select all

define('DIR_APPLICATION', '/home/XXXX/public_html/shop/catalog/');


Of course I understand Mel. Maybe attempting to help me BEFORE asking for my cpanel credentials might have been a good move? From my perspective It being one the first things you said to me actually sent alarms ringing, rather than appearing as genuine help, as you no doubt intended.

All good. Thanks all round.
