Plugin Issues After Upgrade To 3.0.3

[Silas]

Hi,

 

I just upgraded to 3.0.3 from the old OpenX system. I had the server at the root of the domain, and I upgraded in a new directory like the upgrade walkthrough instructed (I put it in "/new_ads/") then I swapped the old with the new.

 

At the end of the upgrade it asked me for the path to the old system so it could update plugins. I thought I should enter just "/" because the old site was in the root, but it did't accept that or any other path I tried. I ended up just skipping it and accessing the admin end, when I looked at plugins they were all set to enabled so I thought all was well, and finalized the install.

 

Now the reports are not being shown, when I click the details on the reports plugin, I saw two groups, 0 and 1 and they were both disabled. I tried installing the plugin again but it said "Error extracting plugin definition file: path_creation_fail : plugins/etc/openXReports.xml " I was able to uninstall the plugin but when I try to install the reports plugin again it gives me the same error. I would have thought that once uninstalled I should just be able to reinstall without issue.

 

The old install was moved to /old_ads/ and I have tried upgrading /old_ads/ within /new_ads/ but I still get the same issue where it cant find the xml files during the initial installation. 

 

Any ideas how to fix the reports plugin?

 

Thanks,

Silas

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Silas,

Just try the following,

• Take a back up of the database and clear the varcache and templates_compiled folders .
• Reinstall that particular plugin which suspects the issue by deleting the files contained within it.

Thanks for the tip Eliza!

 

Here is a list what I ended up doing to fix my problem. 

• I could not upgrade or delete the reports plugin, so I removed it via ftp, manually uploaded a new version of the plugin, This didn't fix it, but it now allowed me to uninstall the plugin.
• I then cleared the var/cache, and var/tempaltes_cache folders
• Then I could finally install the reports plugin and it seems to be working.
• Finally I opened "/lib/RV.php" and changed this line "require_once RV_PATH . '/lib/pear/PEAR.php';" to "require_once dirname(__FILE__) . '/pear/PEAR.php';"
• Now it works again!
