Install error

Post by Blind Dragon »

Your Portal Version: 1.0.2
Your phpBB Type: Standard phpBB3
MODs installed: Yes
Your knowledge: Basic Knowledge
Boardlink: http://www.tech-101.com

What have you done before the problem was there?
Uploaded all files, made the requested changes to files indicated, then pointed browser at the install.php file. I have the Phpbb-SEO premod installed.

What have you already tryed to solve the problem?
I tried uninstalling/ reinstalling. I can get the portal to work, however the ACP modules do not work correctly.

Description and Message
I receive the following error during install :

Fatal error: Call to undefined function adm_back_link() in /public_html/tech101/includes/acp/acp_modules.php on line 770

===========================

Here are lines 763 through 773:

Code: Select all

                if (!$row)
                {
                    if ($run_inline)
                    {
                        return 'PARENT_NO_EXIST';
                    }

                    trigger_error($user->lang['PARENT_NO_EXIST'] . adm_back_link($this->u_action . '&parent_id=' . $this->parent_id), E_USER_WARNING);
                }
 
===========================

Refreshing allows the portal to install however the ACP for the module does not work. I can only use one of the modules through ACP. There for I cannot customize the portal.

It appears that this may be because I somehow deleted the .MODs tab from ACP?

The error is saying that the parent category doesn't exist for the modules to be loaded to.

If you go to ACP -> system tab -> administration control panel (in left pane) -> and DONT see .MODs listed as a category then this may be what you need.

Ok, I fixed myself.

I uploaded the portal-install folder -> I uninstalled the portal but didn't undo any changes to the files.

I went into ACP -> system tab -> administration control panel -> create a new module (category) with no parent -> named .MODs

Then I went into phpmyadmin -> under modules -> found the entry and changed the id to 31 (my 31 was gone and replaced by the phpbb-seo mod)

re-ran the installer

This time the installer completed without any errors ;)

Hopefully this helps somebody
