Bug in Mobile Plugin

Post by h3nryd00d »

I believe this is an external plugin so if this isn't the place to post that my bad.

I installed a Mobile Event plugin that allows for the detection of certain mobile browsers and then formats the page accordingly. Evidently this installation failed and now whenever I try to install an event plug-in through "Configure Plugins" and then click on "Add Event Plug-in" I get the following:

Event Plugins

Missing required file mobile.class.php

There isn't anyplace to remove the plug-in as it doesn't appear on the installed plug-ins page. Where should I start to correct this issue so that I can install and configure Event Plug-ins again. Thanks ahead of time.

Hi!

You could remove that plugin by removing the directory serendipity_event_mobileoutput (I believe that's the name).

Where did you download it from? Usually the mobile.class.php should be part of the archive.

I downloaded it from within my installation of s9y. It was in the list when I followed the link to look for new event plug-ins. So Spartacus I guess fetched it for me?

And your solution worked perfectly. Thanks a million, especially for the prompt response!

Much love for the s9y and the development team.

Hi!

If you want to use the plugin despite of the trouble, you might want to download the ZIP from spartacus.s9y.org and upload it manually to your server. The ZIP on that server definitely contains the mobile.class.php file, so it should hopefully work?

Best regards,

I am experiencing the same problem. I tried to install the mobile plugin, and I am getting the same message as the previous person who posted here.

Where/how do I access the directory to remove the plug-in? I cannot access the directory.

Help!

Hi!
I cannot access the directory
Don't you have FTP access to your server?

Okay, I removed the mobile plugin from my server, but I keep receiving this message when I try to access other event plug-ins:

Trying to open URL package_event_en.xml...
Fetched 426931 bytes from already existing file on your server. Saving file as /data/25/2/161/39/2487039/user//htdocs/serendipity/templates_c/package_event_en.xml...

Missing required file mobile.class.php


(I removed my user info for privacy on the forum)

When I click on the link above, I get this message:

The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

Hi!

If you still get the output about the missing file, this means the mobile output plugin is still there. What file/directory did you delete exactly? And are you sure it was properly deleted? It doesn't look like it...
