Newbie Question - Plugin Installation

Hi,
I successfully installed the blog and added the Spartacus Plugin. I tried to add some additional plugins like the convert to pdf plugin, but I receive an error message stating:
Code: Select all
Error: serendipity_event_blogpdf:7c2220fe88d991d4469b25feb76ab048 (online_repository)
DEBUG: Plugin serendipity_event_blogpdf:7c2220fe88d991d4469b25feb76ab048 not an object: .
Input: Array ( [adminModule] => plugins [pluginPath] => online_repository [install_plugin] => serendipity_event_blogpdf [spartacus_fetch] => [action] => [adminAction] => ) .
This error can happen if a plugin was not properly downloaded (check your plugins directory if the requested plugin was downloaded) or the inclusion of a file failed (permissions?)
Backtrace:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in X\include/admin/plugins.inc.php on line 441
The chmod is set to 777 of the directory, I have no idea what else todo, I don't know php.
thank you,

In your /plugins directory, is there a serendipity_event_blogpdf directory? If so, are the same files as listed here
http://php-blog.cvs.sourceforge.net/php ... t_blogpdf/ also in that plugin directory? Are the permissions correct?
It looks to me like the plugin either completely failed to install any files or it installed them to the wrong place/with bad permissions.
Is everything else in the blog working correctly or are you seeing other issues that might be caused by paths that are improperly set or files that are missing?

Hello,
thank you for your answer.
There is a directory named serendipity_event_blogpdf with CHMod 777 but it's empty.
Everything else is working fine.
What should I do now?

Two options:
Remove the plugin via the "configure plugins" menu on your administration page, then delete the empty serendipity_event_blogpdf directory, then reinstall the plugin via "configure plugins" or:
Go and download all of those files from the CVS site in my first reply and plug them all into that empty directory, making sure of appropriate ownership and permissions. Make sure you get the contents of the font/ and UTF-8/ and place them in font/ and UTF-8/ directories under that empty directory as well.
I'd give the first option a shot, since it should be easier, then do the second if it doesn't work.
Good luck!

Hello,
thank you again for your answer.
Unfortunately, option 1 is not working either.
Yes, I could do all that manually, but I had chosen S9Y for some reasons, and the plugin management is one of it.
Is there no way of finding the cause of the problem?
thank you!

Understood.
It seems like something is just not working properly in Spartacus and its ability to write to directories or in its ability to actually download files. Did you see anything else besides the above error message when you tried to install the plugin?
Also, you may have better luck posting something in the Bugs board rather than the Installation board.

Hi!
Also, how did you configure your spartacus plugin? Did you change file/dir permissions there? You might have configured some permissions there that do not allow spartacus to put files in there.
Another thing might be the used mirror of Spartacus; are you using netmirror.org?
Best regards,
Garvin

Hello,
