Topic: SP and SMF RC4 compatible?

[c23_Mike]

Hi there!

SMF RC4 is out. Anyone tested it?

[fl4pj4ck]

works with clean installation no problem

however I cannot install it when upgraded RC3->RC4

edit:
just spotted

[Nathaniel]

For now you can add the following code to your "Themes/{themename}/css/portal.css" file:

Code: [Select]

h4.catbg span.left, h4.catbg2 span.left, h3.catbg span.left, h3.catbg2 span.left, .table_list tbody.header td span.left
{
float: left;
display: block;
width: 9px;
height: 31px;
background: url(../images/theme/main_block.png) no-repeat 0 -160px;
}

h4.titlebg span.left, h3.titlebg span.left
{
float: left;
display: block;
width: 9px;
height: 31px;
background: url(../images/theme/main_block.png) no-repeat 0 -200px;
}
Apart from that small css issue, it looks like SP 2.3.2 is compatible with SMF 2 RC4.

[Yahmez]

I cannot reinstall SP 2.3.2 with a recently upgraded SMF 2.0RC4 database. It installs but then errors on install2.php

Database Error
Duplicate key name 'state'
File: /xxx/xxx/public_html/Packages/temp/install2.php
Line: 521

[fl4pj4ck]

^^^ I'm getting exactly same error

[locutusweb]

The same error as Yahmez and fl4pj4ck over here...

[Katrien]

same problem here, but luckaly i tested first on my testsite.

Duplicate key name 'state'
File: /xxx/xxx/xxxx/xxxxx/public_html/Packages/temp/install2.php
Line: 521

Is there a solution pls?

Thanks in advance
Kind regards

Easiest solution to that issue is to open up SimplePortal_2.3.2.zip and remove these lines of code from package-info.xml:

Code: [Select]

<!-- Install scripts -->
<database>install2.php</database>
To do that either extract the files to your computer, edit that one and recreate the archive, or edit it directly from 7zip (right-click -> Edit, make the changes and hit CTRL+S, then click yes when prompted to update the archive)

[MaXi]

Well... 
And will be SP v. 2.4?
Will be soon now when RC4 is out? 

[Maarten]

So, it isn't compatible yet?

[locutusweb]

Oldiesman quick fix solved the installing problem. I noticed that the menubar wasn't automatically updated when I installed SP. Did this manually. For now, I found no other problems with SP and SMF 2.0 RC4.

I cannot install the simple portal on my forums, I keep getting the error shown below when I try to. I tried Oldiesmann's solution and it still doesn't work. Unless this this error can be fixed, I think a new Simpleportal might be in need.

That looks like it is a file permission issue. Did you enter the required FTP information?

[Kellen]

I changed the rights of the majority of the ones I could find to 777, as for most of the sp related ones I couldn't find them anywhere.

If you still get that error, you failed to modify the archive and it is still attempting to run the install2.php script.
You need to remove the quoted section from the package-info.xml and then place the updated file back into the archive before uploading it and attempting to install.

I have put the code in and the home & forum buttons now show up but i use a standalone url, but it keeps redirecting me to the forum. So what im saying is when i press the home button witch should take me to Here it doesn't it redirects me to the forum Here
Any ideas to fix?

Thanks ! This works fine 

I do everything.. but follow this message:

Error in database

[Maarten]

If I was Simple Portal, I should release a SMF 2.0 RC4 fix. For example SP 2.3.3 or a 2.3.2 reversion with RC4 fix. I would just like to have it plug 'n play just like it did with RC3<, so even noobs can apply it to their forums.

Anyway, it isn't a problem for me, but I am for 2 weeks not at home (because if my internship) so I don't have much time to update my site. I wrote this post from a iPad.. Which doesn't has the software I need to update my site, so it's kinda risky to do it so fast, on the iPad it is impossible.

no you didn't. removing the part of the code mentioned earlier causes this file (install2.php) not being used at all

[Kellen]

I solved the problem, I just reverted back to my old RC3 forums.

I'll upgrade to RC4 if an updated SP is released because it just isn't working for me.

Thanks anyways.

By the way, I still think simple portal is great.

[AngelinaBelle]

Table 'baaskcom_smf2.smf_sp_functions' doesn't exist

This means that the sp_functions table has not been created. This is because install2.php did not run.
 
If you place a copy of this file in the same directory with index.php, then run http://www.baask.com/install2.php, your tables will be created.

That shouldn't be related to any compatibility issues between SP 2.3.2 and SMF 2 RC4.

That does not work either. The file runs and then returns a different error than what shows up when attempting using package manager with install2.php still referenced in package-info.xml

It is not a big deal for me. I upgraded a copy of live site to RC4 simply as a test. I am not upgrading the live site until this issue is resolved though.

Hi there!

I think I will also wait until an updated version of SP is out. All this try and error is not funny. I am glad I asked here for the compatibility.

[Linda]

Hi there!

Me too 

[humbug]

I can confirm that you cannot run install2.php and get it to work.  What we had to do was follow all the above steps BUT not run install2.php, instead, when installing the rc4 update chose backup tables, then install SP using the above steps bypassing install2.php, then find the table backup_smf_sp_functions and copy it to smf_sp_functions and all should be well (i have used our tables names, yours may differ).

tbh though we rolled back and are waiting for the SP update.

Cheers

Now that the RC4-compatable SimplePortal 2.3.3 is out, are you all able to install SimplePortal 2.3.3 with SMF 2.0 RC4?

[Nathaniel]

If anyone continues to have issues with upgrading/installing with SP 2.3.3, it would be good if you could start your own topics.

[Linda]

Now that the RC4-compatable SimplePortal 2.3.3 is out, are you all able to install SimplePortal 2.3.3 with SMF 2.0 RC4?

Oké, thanks to the SimplePortalTeam 

[MaXi]

Nice!
And Bottom Panel a Top Panel will be not?
I like SP and I would appreciate SP had this options.
Or will be SP v. 2.4 with this options and when?
Thanks

I know...
There is no essential information...

"- New header/footer sides, that appear above and below the current SimplePortal sides."

It seems fairly specific to me about your feature request.

Not sure why you posted it here though, this is definitely the wrong location to be asking about features for future versions of SimplePortal.

[MaXi]

I hoped that this options will be in version 2.3.3
Or version 2.4 will be soon.
I need this option necessarily soon.
I don´t want to use TP...
That´s all
