Hello to the SEBLOD Community,

I wonder if anyone is having the same trouble upgrading to SEBLOD 3.2 as I am?

  1. I upgrade Joomla 3.1.5 to 3.2.1 and then upgrade Seblod 3.1.5 to 3.2 with the following error after the installation: "Duplicate column name 'path' SQL=ALTER TABLE nairn_cck_core_folders ADD path VARCHAR( 1024 ) NOT NULL AFTER parent_id;"
  2. I get the following error when I try open any of my Form/Content types: "Oops! Try to close the page & re-open it properly."
  3. My front page looks like this: http://energy.org.za/threetwo/
Any guidance you can offer will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Catastrophix,

On 'Xmasday I upgraded Joomla after having done a backup with akeeba from J3.1.1 to J3.2.1 from within the Joomla administrator. I got the serious and recurring warning that I had to switch Magic quotes OFF. Being 'Xmas day my provider couldn't turn it off right away. Despite the warning, I upgraded Seblod from 3.15 to 3.2.

And indeed, I got a similar warning too about a duplicate column name or so but everything worked fine. The following day my provider switched Magic quotes and output buffering OFF. Just to make sure I reinstalled Seblod 3.2 and I do not seem to have any problems.

If this can help you,
Bernard

Hi Bernard

Both of those settings are OFF in my config (PHP 5.4.4-14), so unfortunately that is not the problem.

But thanks for your input!

Regards,
Steve

Go in to the extension manager, go to "database" (on the left) and click "fix"

Does that help?

Sadly not James. Thanks for your input.

I've decided to revert to a more familiar CCK as the upgrade process has become a bit of an ordeal which I can't quite afford right now. But I'll definitely keep abreast of SEBLOD developments as I certainly do get glimpses of its immense power. Thanks also for your contributions which I found most useful in beginning to understand the SEBLOD paradigm.

Cheers,
Stephen

Hi Stephen,

"Duplicate column name 'path' SQL=ALTER TABLE nairn_cck_core_folders ADD path VARCHAR( 1024 ) NOT NULL AFTER parent_id;"
We haven't encountered this issue so far.. but we'll do more tests.
Can you please let us know what was the initial version of SEBLOD on your site? Was it 3.1.5? or a previous one?

Thanks & Regards,
Saba.

Hi Saba

It was 3.1.5

I'd be happy to recreate the original environment for you with an admin login if it helps in your testing.

Cheers

Thanks for starting the topic.

I have similar problems with the upgrade from 3.1 tot 3.3 ....

' SQL=ALTER TABLE choir_cck_core_folders ADD path VARCHAR( 1024 ) NOT NULL AFTER parent_id;'

after that I try install it again and it works but my main list is corrupted

Also had the pagination problem.

Maybe interesting to know,

sometimes I also get "SQL=ALTER TABLE `choir_cck_core_type_field` ADD `restriction` VARCHAR( 512 ) NOT NULL COMMENT 'admin,site,intro,content' AFTER `access`;"

Either way I can't upgrade without crashing the current functions. Thanks in advance!

Oh dear. I hope I don't experience the same when I try to upgrade.

My problem above was never solved despite being able to recreate it and I spent most of my December holidays having to build my entire site on the new version of SEBLOD in order to continue with the Joomla upgrade path. Not something I can ever afford to repeat.

I'll let you know if I get the same error when I upgrade (possibly later today). I'll be going from 3.3.0 to 3.3.2.

Cheers

I'm fortunate to report a successful upgrade from SEB 3.3.0 to 3.3.2 despite the troubles I experienced in earlier upgrades on the same infrastructure as outlined above

Afterwards I get:

SQL=SELECT a.id, a.title, a.name, a.alias, a.description, a.content, a.location, a.storage_location, a.stylesheets, b.app as folder_app, a.options, a.template_search, a.template_filter, a.template_list, a.template_item FROM choir_cck_core_searchs AS a LEFT JOIN choir_cck_core_folders AS b ON b.id = a.folder WHERE a.name ="try_again" AND a.published = 1

and

SQL=SELECT DISTINCT a.id, a.title, a.name, a.folder, a.type, a.label, c.client, c.label as label2, c.variation, c.variation_override, c.required, c.required_alert, c.validation, c.validation_options, c.link, c.link_options, c.live, c.live_options, c.live_value, c.markup, c.markup_class, c.typo, c.typo_label, c.typo_options, c.stage, c.access, c.restriction, c.restriction_options, c.computation, c.computation_options, c.conditional, c.conditional_options, c.position FROM choir_cck_core_fields AS a LEFT JOIN choir_cck_core_type_field AS c ON c.fieldid = a.id WHERE c.typeid = 62 AND c.client = "admin" ORDER BY c.ordering ASC

any idea which column I might miss?

With all the upgrading back-and-forth I get

"Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, class 'plgCCK_Fieldradio' not found in /----------/domains/-----/public_html/libraries/cms/cck/cck.php on line 31" in the original 3.1.5.

Also when I upgrade I seem to be missing the columns 'markup' and 'stylesheets'.

Sorry for being such a nuisance btw!

- After destroying the 'restriction' column manually the upgraded succeeded eventually.

- After adding the missing columns manually the form became back to life.

- The last error on cck.php on line 31 had to do with the fields: div_end, div_in between and div_start

Almost done with fixing the pagination (which apparently works properly on a new search form)!

The pagination error is caused by setting the search form as 'Home' in the menu manager! (for me at least)

Clearly a bug!
