Did you try to clear the cache ? I've done one litle project in magento for school and clear cache solve all kind of problems.

The Best way I prefer to create a Module in Magento is Using the Module Creator

There could me many reasons Why your module dosent appear in the adminhtml.you might be missin some line in the xml file, or some functions model.

Joomla - Help to create templates

I am starting to develop a frontend of a Joomla template.
Does anyone have a link to download or a db/dump or something with all components and categories activated?
Basically it's a demo dump to help me to show all components needed on any template.
Or... do I need to put it by hand?
You could try this: http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/joomla-3/create-template
I recommend you to use XAMPP and phpMyAdmin from it for your Joomla! start-up site - pretty easy and fast.

Getting modules working in Joomla 3.1.4

I am experimenting with Joomla 3.1.4. Whenever I add a new module the template does not show at all in the front-end. The site is blank. On disabling the new module it starts showing properly again. Even a basic hello world type of module does not seem to work and nor does a third party extension I have tried.
I can see them in the extension manager and in the module manager and they have installed successfully. Frustrated with all this I decided to install a new 3.1 template which too installed successfully. However this template does not show anything in the front-end either with my module enabled. It almost seems that there is some sort of security restriction which is disabling the template from rendering whenever any change is made to the basic installation.
Can someone please give pointers to resolving this odd behaviour?
Probably one or some of the core files required for the modules to work are missing.
Head to Global configuration and make sure your Error reporting is set to development. Reload the page and update your question with the error message.
Why not try the newer Joomla 3.1.5 (Download page)? I know that 3.1.4 had at least one problem which could possibly cause server errors in conjunction with extensions (the most likely reason for the blank page that you see).
In general, when encountering a blank page, the first thing to do should be to check the error log of your webserver!

How to make a module installable in Magento?

I have successfully created a custom payment gateway module in Magento. Everything work fine as expected.
What I want to do is to make the module installable so that anyone who has the .zip file can install it rather than coping the files manually. I know this is possible with magento and I have seen such modules.
How to make the module installable in Magento which already has been developed ? Please explain the steps if possible.

Let me know if you run in any trouble.
Firstly, go to your Admin > System > Magento Connect > Package Extensions
There you will be greeted with New Extension where you can fill all the details of your module.
If you don't understand any field there, just check it in the above article which gives explanation of all the fields required while packaging an extension.

Fatal error: Class 'Mage_Core_Helper_Cookie' not found magento

I created a theme on my own magento website, and uploaded it to another magento website, but when i go to the frontend of that website i get this
Fatal error: Class \\’Mage_Core_Helper_Cookie\\’ not found in /home/winterwa/public_html/app/Mage.php on line 516
I searched for a solution and tried this one described in this topic:
http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/280318/#t401019
(cookie.php in app/code/core/mage/core/helper) but it didn\\’t help a thing.
Any suggestions/solutions for this??
It sounds like the two different Magento installs are running different versions of Magento. The file in question is only added to Magento in version 1.7. I can only assume that you have taken a fresh install of 1.7 and based your theme off of the default / base theme for this. Therefore when the theme gets added to an older version of Magento it is trying to load Blocks / Templates that you haven't overloaded and that just don't exist in the base template.
Unfortunately this won't be the easiest thing to fix. You will need to go through the layout/template files, removing references that add blocks or use helpers that don't exist for the current version of magento. For the issue you mention, you should be able to find by searching for helper('cookie') in your template files.

How to run magento project in phpeclipse?

I want to include and run magento project in phpeclipse.How can i do that?
As far as i know, PHP-Eclipse is "on going" development. and not compatible with Magento yet, you might just open file by file. But you can debug it with xDebug.
Example Working Magento with Eclipse
I am using PHPEd. http://www.nusphere.com/products/index.htm
Works great with magento.
