Magento connect stuck while installing - magento

I am facing this problem while installing extensions, themes basically anything from magento connect.
When I enter the extension key and click install It just gets stuck and even when it says done and I try and go back on admin page it says "There are PEAR processes running.
If you will close the window or navigate away from the page, installation will be interrupted.
"
Has anyone faced this problem. I am working on ubuntu 9.1 and having magento 1.4. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Cheers

If you are working on the same computer and access your instalation via localhost (or 127.0.0.1) it can lead to problems. You should edit your hosts file and add same fake address such as
www.localhost.com 127.0.0.1
I believe this is because most browsers don't store cookies for localhost and I have had problems with magento because of this in the past.

Flex library not loaded Magento

We moved a Magento webshop from one host to another yesterday. Everything went well. But when we login to the admin panel we get an error "Flex library not loaded" And it happens every time we go to a new page.
I already checked file permissions for js/lib etc. with no luck.
I emptied the cache with no luck either...
So I'm kinda running out of options here.
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Proceed to Checkout button directing to homepage instead of next step in magento 1.9.1

So the problem is when i upload the website to live server. Everything works fine in local environment.
When i click the Proceed to checkout button it redirects me to the homepage. this does not happen in local environment.
In the live server I have Flushed magento cache; flushed web hosting account cache; Enable error logging but there are no errors, also no extensions are installed.
What does the link for proceed to checkout say in inspector? What i will usually do to troubleshoot issues as such is enabling the default theme to see if the issue still occurs. If it doesn't then it's theme specific. From there, run red lines with the theme having the problem and verify the block with the proceed to cart button doesn't have an error by comparing it to the base theme block.

Changing these settings from the admin panel solved my problem.

Empty page with logo after PrestaShop installation

My website is hosted on OVH (France), with one SQL database.
I have installed manually PrestaShop from the GitHub folder.
After multiple attempts in installing PrestaShop, I finally reached to have it installed but since I choose to use the demo products (in the installation process and as I am new to PrestaShop), I think obtaining a white page with only the logo is surprising to me (see attachment).
I tried to print the errors switching to True the dev parameters from the file defines.inc.php, but nothing was printed.
Also, I see nothing in the console of the browser.
I suspect there is a conflict with the SQL database, but I don't know what to check.
Would you have any tracks to check what's wrong with my installation ?

phpmyadmin and firefox in xampp

I installed xampp in my computer and I use Google Chrome to open locally my websites without any problem, but when I use Firefox to open phpMyadmin the URL is changed in "/phpmyadmin/index.php#PMAURL:server=1&target=main.php&token=b92fecc65da8847f71a421e37bf5151f" and I get only the list of databases, that is only the left column of the phpMyadmin page.
I "googled" a lot but I did get any answer to that problem.
Can someone help me?
Thanks a lot,
Nino V
You need to be using
http://127.0.0.1/phpmyadmin/
or
localhost/phpmyadmin/

phpmyadmin displaying white page

I have wamp server installed on a windows amazon ec2 instance.
Phpmyadmin opens up fine, displaying the home page. But when i click on anything, e.g. databases, import, export etc. it just displays the list of databases on the left side and a blank white page in the middle. Heres a screenshot

I have error logging turned on but no errors appear in the error log.
I can't find a solution to this problem so any help greatly appreciated!
I had the same problem, try completely uninstalling the program you're using, then redownload XAMPP for windows. I downloaded from here: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#641. Here is a tutorial for Windows 8: http://myownhomeserver.com/2012/12/how-to-install-xampp-1-8-on-windows-8/. You should be good after that.
