I have an issue with Joomla 2.5 extensions updates.
I've released a new version for a plugin made by myself and installed into my site. I have made the xml update server but inclusive other extensions that has a lot of updates aren't detected.
What could be the issue for this?
I previously found there was an issue with the version numbers: I had to use a 4-level version number ( 3.0.0.1 ) to get the automatic update to work. You could try that...
Good, 1 year later I could see the issue (for my extensions): on update server xml the tag element had a typo (minimum typo) and Joomla update manager were not able to find the updates to my extension.
the value for element tag had a plugin_name value (look at the underscore) but plugin is pluginname
for third party extensions, was a Joomla bug and I update the site to the current Joomla version.

i wasn't getting any updates notifications of joomla update as my current version is 2.5.x and i want to update to 3.x at least. But after doing purge cache action as according to this solution states.
But after this i get to see this (How can this say the lower version to new version?)
Is there any other way i can get to notify to update to joomla version 3.x ?
Go to options of the Joomla update manager and switch from Long Term Support to Short Term Support.
This way you can update Joomla 2.5.x only to Joomla 2.5.28 (which is the last release of 2.5 series). If you want to have Joomla 3, then you must do a migration, like that: https://docs.joomla.org/Joomla_2.5_to_3.x_Step_by_Step_Migration
If you want to upgrade your Joomla to latest version then Just Go to Extension manager and install the following stable package.
Download Joomla Update package
Since thursday nyt, I got stucked on upgrading my joomla website 1.5.26 to 2.5 in the very first step which is cleanining and caching. I already disabled rest of the plugins except mootools plugins. I also reinstalled the latest mootools plugin for joomla and ; is also removed from the php_curl in my php.ini file. Any ideas about how to fix it?
Go to Extensions > jUpgrade.
Click Parameters.
Select Yes for the Skip Download option.
Select Yes for the Skip Decompress option.
Select No for the Delete previous migrationoption
- Click Save.
Create a folder in your Joomla root called jupgrade.
Download Joomla 2.5.4 and extract it in the jupgrade folder.

If you have already run jUpgrade and it failed, clear your browser
cache now. Click Start Upgrade.
If you still have problems with jUpgrade, see the following forum
post on jUpgrade; it addresses this issue.
Once you have successfully upgraded Joomla 1.5 to 2.5.4, you can
upgrade Joomla 2.5.4 to 2.5.6, but I would wait until Joomla comes
out with another release. Joomla 2.5.6 is still full of bugs and
inconsistencies.
Long time back I used jUpgrade plugin for joomla upgrade.
But now the plugin / component is not in use to upgrade the joomla version from 1.5 to 2.5
Is there any other freeware plugin for migration?
I used following components.
Gavick Pro
Jcomments
jcraweler
jfusion
Joomfish and
k2
Pleas give some suggesstions to upgrade the joomla from 1.5 to 2.5
jUpgrade has been unpublished due to a broken download link, however things have changed on their official website and it can still be downloaded:
http://redcomponent.com/redcomponent/jupgrade
I forgot to mention that jUpgrade does not upgrade your 3rd party extensions such as JEvents. You will have to download the Joomla 2.5 compatible version for each one unfortunately. The same goes for the site template.
I know this is an old question, but things have changed on redComponent again. They now don't have an installer available on the site.
However, if redMigrator (the JUpgrade replacement) doesn't meet your needs (as in my particular case, today), they have put the JUpgrade source on GitHub
https://github.com/fastslack/jUpgrade
Just clone the repo down and then run releases/make_release.sh
http://redcomponent.com/redcomponent/jupgrade
It's still available from the makers website. Just been unpublished on JED for some reason. Keep on using it as before as far as I'm concerned.
There are no other well recognized freeware upgrades just the paid SP Upgrade (note the support on this extension as it is a paid extension is much better however for a generic upgrade stick with jUpgrade). However free upgrades do exist and can be found under this section on JED.
Unfortunately I see this error when I come back to an old Joomla 1.5 site.
JHTMLlist not supported. File not found.
Any solution for this problem?
Note that it is not updated. It is 1.5.23
Is that a host related issue?
I think that when you last updated your website, it must have missed that file.
First of all, download the Joomla 1.5.0 - 1.5.26 patch, upload to the root folder for you Joomla site, and extract. This might solve the problem, but if not then proceed by downloading the full Joomla 1.5.26 package, extract the "libraries" folder, then zip it up, upload to the root of your Joomla site in the FTP, and extract.
Check that the file ROOT/libraries/joomla/html/html/list.php exists. If it does not then you need to upload one from the 1.5.23 package. If that does not fix your problem your best bet is to upgrade the site to the latest version of Joomla and see if that fixes the problem.
If you upgrade the site it should be automatically added - but I'm guessing by your post that for whatever reason you want to stick on 1.5.23 (N.B. All versions before 1.5.26 have a password security flaw that was fixed in 1.5.26).
I'm trying to upgrade Joomla Version 1.5.20 to Joomla Version 2.5.4.
I've upgraded other CMS's in the past, but Joomla seems to be a little different. Does anyone have any advice as to the best way to upgrade?
So far I've:
Downloaded the entire site
Exported the database via phpMyAdmin
I've installed MAMP and Joomla locally and I'm trying to replicate their site on my machine in attempt to upgrade locally before doing it live. I've loaded the template, but haven't been able to load the content yet.
There seems to be a lot of versions between 1.5.20 and 2.5.4, and it's making me a bit nervous.
You can't directly upgrade from a Joomla! 1.5.x version to the 2.5.x line, it's a migration.
As the 2.5 line is a big change to Joomla! you will have to find 2.5 versions of:
the template you're using
any custom extensions (ie. components, plug-ins, modules etc)
Version 2.5 has new technical requirements so you will need to check that your server meets those.
Once you've got all that resolved.
First thing you should do is upgrade a backup of your 1.5.x site to the latest version ie. 1.5.26 as it fixes some security issues, and the recent versions included 1 or 2 bugs that help with the migration.
Once you have that working you will need to use a migration tool as discussed in this document. Please note that while this document references JUpgrade, you would probably be better off looking at one of the other conversion tools, especially the commercial products (which aren't expensive at all).
We're about half way through migrating over 200 client websites and while we started out with the free 'recommended' component we now use the commercial SP Upgrade (I have no affiliation with this product other than purchasing it and using it happily).
To upgrade joomla the plugin JUpgrade is one of the options. its quite easy tool.
updation can only required some clicks.
