joomla: jomsocial installation problem (winxp) - joomla

i'm trying to install the jomsocial plugin on my local joomla.
joomla (v1.6) was freshly installed from scratch - i'm having the latest version of jomsocial (v2.20)
i've followed the jomsocial installation instructions but it didn't work,
during the installation process i got the same error over + over again:
Strict Standards: Only variables should be assigned by reference in ...
any ideas what could be wrong?
thanks

It would be helpful if you posted the complete error, but it looks like you need to change your php.ini error reporting log level.

Problem with migration Joomla 1.5.26 to 3.x with jUpgradePro

I need to migrate an old website witch is using Joomla 1.5 to Joomla 3.x.
I updated Joomla to 1.5.26 and I decided to buy and use tool jUpgradePro from https://matware.com.ar/subscriptions/jupgradepro-subscription.html .
I configured everything and I'm trying to start migration but there's one problem and I need Your help.
When I start using cmd of jupgradepro there's one error message after using command composer install.
Cannot update only a partial set of packages without a lock file present
What can I do with this problem, any Issue? I was trying to search something in web, but finally have to ask You for help.
One thing that I can say is that this example is a test so target domain is a subdomain (http://ernestdolowy.pl/projects/szpital/nowytest/) and source site has just empty test template, is that a problem? Joomla 3.x is well configured on subdomain.
Finally I need to migrate Joomla 3.x to Wordpress but right now I have to solve this problem.
Thank you in advance for your help :)
I got same problem, and found this solution on my local machine:
In Joomla site, xxx\administrator\components\com_jupgradepro I copied the composer.json file to composer.lock
I started composer install command from command line (in Windows, not in built-in jUpgradePro). It installed all dependencies, and in jUpgradePro command line window the check site command worked fine.
Solution:

getting "ERROR: AJAX Loading Error: Forbidden" error when trying to upgrade Joomla version 3.5.1 to 3.6.4

I have tried to upgrade Joomla version from 3.5.1 to 3.6.4 from Joomla control panel by click on "Update Now" button. And got "ERROR: AJAX Loading Error: Forbidden"
Please see the screenshot http://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/1107/5217107686.jpg
How can i fix the issue? Thanks advance for helping !
Here is what I would do, make a site backup.
Then manually updated by extracting the update patch package in the root directory. Go to the link below and find the package that is specifically intended for updating from versions prior to 3.6.X
https://downloads.joomla.org/cms/joomla3/3-6-4
Joomla! 3.6.4 Upgrade Package (.zip)
This package is for performing updates from Joomla! 2.5 and previous 3.x releases to 3.6.4
Please let me know if you have any issues with updating in this manner.

SOLVED THE PROBLEM !!!
Here is the total solution of my mentioned issue !! I tried hard to solve the issue in various way but failed.
I fixed my issue once followed this tutorials.
https://docs.joomla.org/J3.x:Upgrading_from_Joomla_3.4.x_to_3.5
Stay fine with Joomla !!!
"Forbidden" seems to indicate that there is a restriction accessing a file.
Some things to try:
temporarily revert to the default .htaccess file by backing up the current .htaccess file and copying htaccess.txt to .htaccess
reset file permissions by installing the free or paid version of Akeeba Admin Tools (if it's not already installed) and run the "Fix Permissions" tool
temporarily disable security extensions or tools that may be restricting access to the update files
In my particular case, it was the last suggestion which was relevant. I worked out how to bypass Sucuri as an administrator by adding an entry in my local hosts file to access
the website via its direct IP address. The update then worked flawlessly.

Did anyone know how to install Magento 1.9.2 Plugins on PHP7?

I try to install Plugins on my Magento 1.9.2.4 on PHP 7.0.4.
All normal Plugins have the same Error Message:
requires PHP version >= 5.2.13 and <= 5.7.0 current is: 7.0.4
The Shop runs after a small bugfix fine. But without Plugins its Useless.
Thanks.
The creator of each extension/plugin in Magento specifies a supported version. It sounds like none of your plugins/extensions support PHP anything greater than a (existent) PHP 5.7. You'll either need to
Contact extension/plugin vendors and ask them to release a version on connect that supports PHP 7
Stop using Magento Connect to install plugins and install them yourselves manually.
The specifics of this are well beyond the scope of an individual Stack Overflow answer.

Site down after failed Gantry upgrade (Joomla)

I have a Joomla site that i would like to update to version 2.5, but before I did that I upgrade the Gantry framework. Big mistake. The template is from Rocket Theme, Camber.
I updated Gantry via extension manager. The installation was canceled and now I get an error message. I can not access my page or backend.
What can I do?!
My current Joomla is 1.7
My URL: www.casabar.com
Error code:
Fatal error: Call to a member function getWord() on a non-object in /libraries/gantry/gantry.php on line 189
Thanks
You mention the installation was cancelled - try uninstall the extension from the extension manager and then re-install it successfully?
It sounds as if one of the dependent files was not copied as the installation was interrupted?
-- UPDATE
Oh I see you cant access the backend. In this case, I would suggest a FTP upload of the gantry files.

Magento not Upgrading from 1.3.2.4 to 1.7

I am trying to upgrade Magento 1.3.2.4 to 1.7 using Magento Connect Manager via 'magento-core/Mage_All_Latest' extension key to install. But I found the following error and I don't know how to reslove it.
Error -
Exception caught:
Warning: include(/N91nq64igkwi8oxu.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/projects/spacecenter/lib/Varien/Autoload.php on line 93
If anyone faced this kind of error, please help.
Thanks in Advance!
I strongly recommend this upgrade guide from Turnkey - worked perfectly for me.
Please don't expect that everything works or looks the same once you've upgraded to Magento 1.7. Depending on what features or extensions you use, quite a bit of work might be needed until you're done. So don't do this on your live system. Better duplicate it to a development environment and test the upgrade there.
