Sparticus shows multiple listings for the same plugin

[theseus]

Sparticus is showing 5-10 copies of each plug in when it retrieves the list. I don't see anything wrong with the installation. I was running 1.2 alpha and updated to 1.3 alpha but the problem is still there.

Other installations I have don't have this problem. any thoughts on directing me to the solution?

Hi!

Can you try to empty (NOT delete) the serendipity_pluginlist table and see if the problem then goes away?

Emptying the table makes serendipity rebuild the cache of all available plugins.

HTH,

Can you tell me where to find the table? If I understand you, you want me to remove the entries in the table. Is it in the database? thanks!

Hi!

Yes, it's in the database. You can use a SQL query like "DELETE FROM serendipity_pluginlist".

I executed 'truncate serendipity_pluginlist' and emptied the table. However it didn't solve the problem. Anything else I should try?

I should also point out that serendipity_pluginlist is empty even after I load sparticus. Is this the right point in the database? And it appears to make duplicates of plugins that I have loaded. Ones that that I don't have loaded are not duplicated.

Hi!

Could you make a screenshot of your configure plugins page and of the page where you get the multiple plugins?

Hi!

Hm, that is really strange.

Your screenshot of the event plugins is cut in the middle. Which event plugins are listed therE? Is the spartacus plugin maybe installed multiple times?

And about the multiple plugins - do those plugins exist in your "plugins/" subdirectory multiple times? If you are using Frontpage, it is known to upload directory multiples times into different subdirectory structures, and s9y would show that plugin multiple times then maybe.

If you really emptied your serendipity_pluginlist table, it should now get filled again. There really seems to be something wrong on your server, would you be able to give me temporary FTP privileges?

Sparticus is only listed 1 time. In fact, the listings look fine until I open it to check for new plugins or updates.

I don't use frontpage. If I use anything at all it's notepad.

I can give you access into the server if you want it. I will PM you the details when I set them up.
