I am new in joomla 1.5. I tried to implement virtuemart in my website. I download the the VirtueMart 2.0.8 (stable) from http://virtuemart.net/downloads.
During installing that, I got the following issue:

I have install fresh versions of Prestashop 1.7.5.2 and 1.7.6.1 on my Linux computer and I can't install themes on any them. I have tried with these free themes Apparel and ST002 and I always get some error with a module of the type:
"Cannot install module XXXX. The module is invalid and cannot be loaded."
I think it has to do with something in my Prestashop installation, not with the themes themselves. But I don't have any idea where to start looking, could you please help me? This is getting me mad.
Thank you!
I had a similar problem. I was trying to install the theme by putting the theme's directory into the "themes" directory of my prestashop.
But the proper way to install a theme is by providing a zip file to the administration interface.
If you put the directory manually in "theme" you will also have to manually copy the modules inside the dependency directory of your theme to the "modules" directory of your prestashop.
Manually copying modules might not be enough since it won't call the "install" method on the modules.
Did you check the specs/requirements of the theme? Maybe the theme you want to install is not compatible with the current Prestashop version you using. Especially the version 1.7.6, there's alot of changes/update made.
After much try and error I have found a solution. I have taken each module folder under the dependencies directory of the theme and make a zip file with it. Then I have installed each module with the zip from the administration module dashboard. After installing all the modules, I'm able to install the theme without errors and everything works fine.
Check if those modules(which give errors) exist in a theme dependencies directory and remove them one by one from the directory and all dependencies from theme.yml file in a config directory. It just may be that themes are outdated and contain outdated modules
Im using MAGMI V 0.7.18 and i'm trying to import multiple images in Magento ver. 1.9.2.0 but MAGMI throws
"Update Disabled Zip library not available, Upgrade/Upload function are not enabled"
in the UPDATE section , I try to change the code in:
changed magmi/web/magmi_config_setup.php
changed magmi/web/magmi_upload.php
changed magmi/web/plugin_upload.php
but nothing happens, please Help me,
That error is generated by older Magmi versions if it can't find the ZipArchive php class. You need to install it in the proper way according to your server operating system. (e.g. apt-get install libphp-pclzip in Ubuntu 14.04)
Nonetheless I suggest you to keep your magmi always updated to the latest version.
I am trying to install the SUPEE 6285 on Magento v 1.9.0.1
We do not have a SSH to our server. When I try to Method 1 found on magecomp.com/blog/how-to-install-magento-security-patches/ I get a blank page when I run the patch on the browser.
After looking at the FAQS I see that I should have an install.php file under app/code/core/Mage/Install/Controller/Router/Install.php however I don't have a Router directory.
Any advise on how to install the patch?
First solution (recommended):
Use Magento connect and upgrade your store to the latest Magento version by check for upgrades. The latest version contains this security patch (SUPEE 6285) and another features all together.
Second Solution (Install patch manually):
Download SUPEE 6285 - v 1.9.0.1_v2
Use an FTP client to upload the specific patch to the root of your Magento folder.
Create a PHP file called applypatch.php that will run the patch for you.
upload it to the root of your Magento folder. Make sure to use the right patch name here.
<?php
print("<PRE>");
passthru("/bin/bash PATCH_SUPEE-6285_CE_1.9.0.1_v2.sh");
print("</PRE>");
?>
Visit the file at http://yourdomain.com/applypatch.php, and check if the output looks as expected.
Unfortunately, there's no 'easy' way to install these patches without shell access, but there's two ways to do it.
Install patch through PHP
Use an FTP client to upload the specific patch to the root of your Magento folder.
Create a PHP file called magentopatch.php that will run the patch for you, and upload it to the root of your Magento folder. Make sure to use the right patch name here, if you don't use the patch for version 1.8.x-1.9.x
<?php
print("<PRE>");
passthru("/bin/bash PATCH_SUPEE-5344_CE_1.8.0.0_v1.sh");
print("</PRE>");
?>
Visit the file at http://your.domain.com/magentopatch.php, and check if the output looks as expected.
Install patch manually
The .sh file contains a 'DIFF' patch. These show what lines were removed and added. While I don't advise it, you should be able to manually download the files through FTP, and edit these files in your editor of choice, and then reupload them again through FTP.
The format isn't too hard to interpret, so you can do this for all the files and shouldn't take more then a few minutes.
i have installed a magento Version 1.9.1.0 since a few months, everything works fine.
Since a few weeks i'm trying to update Magento via the package Mage_All_Latest via the Magento Downloader, but nothing happens. I tried it in the last weeks with Version 1.9.1.1 - and since today with the brand new 1.9.2.0 - doesn't matter which - it doesn't work.
In the green status window it tells me "Checking dependencies of packages" - and that's it. No Error, no message - just nothing.
I tried this multiple times, nothing is going on - for hours!
The package is not in the /downloader/.cache-Directory.
When trying to upgrade single packages manually via downloader it always tells me things like
CONNECT ERROR: Package community/Cm_RedisSession 1.9.2.0 conflicts with: community/Mage_All_Latest 1.9.1.0" - but i cannot update this package...!
There is enough space available on the server.
The downloader itself has no problems - i tried to install all available packages in different relations and some worked:
Checking dependencies of packages
Starting to download Lib_Varien-1.9.2.0.tgz ...
...done: 157,974 bytes
Installing package community/Lib_Varien 1.9.2.0
Package community/Lib_Varien 1.9.2.0 installed successfully
I cannot access the server via SSH.
Is there any other option to upgrade this package? do i have to download the full new Magento installation package and override all files manually? or can i download this "Mage_all_latest"-Package on the magentocommerce-Website and replace all files manually? Is there any other option?
Does anybody have an idea what to do?
There is no error message :-(
Thank you.
Can you access the server via FTP?
The magento downloader is garbage. You're better off downloading the extension from connect with this:
http://freegento.com/ddl-magento-extension.php
and then uploading the files
There are some Magento Connect extensions that I find myself installing every time I create a new project, such as Fontis_Recaptcha, Mass_Product_Relater, HM_DeveloperToolbar, ModuleCreator, Alanstormdotcom_Layoutviewer, etc. What's on your list?
Does anyone know of a capability to automate the installation of a base set of modules? In the same way that Mage itself installs all its modules. I guess a bash or phing script to automate PEAR? Thoughts?
I would take another approach. Install a clean installation and add all your extension. When your done export the DB and zip all the files. Then you should be able to use the files and the DB as a base for all your magento installations...
I do the same with Joomla, have not tried that with magento yet, but it should work.
Cant you just use the auto installer script as provided and maintained here:
http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/groups/227/magento_bash_script_installer
and edit it to install your desired extensions
ie just add ./pear install xxxxxxx at the end of the script.
