Errors from CiviMail cron jobs

[speedyrob]

Hello

I am getting these errors from both cron jobs that are supposed to be running according to this article:
wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC43/CiviMail+Installation

This might not be a bug with the Beta of 4.3, but I thought I would mention it just in case. I am NEW to CiviCRM.

Error 1 ($PARAMS):
Warning: require(/home/tccadmin/public_html/libraries/joomla/environment/uri.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/tccadmin/public_html/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Utils/System/Joomla.php on line 616

Thank you in advance!

We do most of our testing / development with J! 2.5.x

However, would be really good to get 4.3 working with J! 3.0.x

Can you please check the civicrm file: CRM/Utils/System/Joomla.php and fix it so it will work with both J! 3.0 and J! 2.5

We can help u on IRC as needed. However our joomla knowledge is pretty minimal


thanx

Hey Donald

I think that CiviCRM is working pretty good in 3.0.3. But, I am looking at line 616 in the Joomla.php file, and it is checking for a file that it really is not there.

    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/joomla/environment/uri.php';

Why is this file not there in Joomla! 3.0.3 ? Is this file needed? How do I get on the IRC ? If you tell me what to do to whatever file you tell me, I will go and make changes, I don't know Joomla! a lot myself.

Let me know,
Thanks!

You'll need to investigate the joomla docs and see where that file / functionality migrated to in joomla 3.0

HI

I don't know what the functionality is, but I had to change the administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Utils/System/Joomla.php file

    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/import.php';
    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/joomla/event/dispatcher.php';
    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/joomla/uri/uri.php';
    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/legacy/component/helper.php'; //'/libraries/joomla/application/component/helper.php';
    require $joomlaBase . '/configuration.php';

Now, I am having an problem with the administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Utils/Hook/Joomla.php
Error:
Fatal error: Class 'JCli' not found in /home/tccadmin/public_html/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Utils/Hook/Joomla.php on line 53

Line 53:         $app = JCli::getInstance();

What does this JCli mean or do? From the previous statements, it looks like its looking for a helper, but it is not specifc as to which one.

Let me know if anyone has any clues!

HI

I am positive that I was able to resolve my Cron Job errors by editing the following lines, and correcting the paths with what is highlighted in orange:

In the file: administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Utils/System/Joomla.php

line 609      define('JPATH_BASE', $joomlaBase . '/administrator');
line 610      require $joomlaBase . '/includes/defines.php';
line 611    }
line 612
line 613    // Get the framework.
line 614    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/import.php';
line 615    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/joomla/event/dispatcher.php';
line 616    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/joomla/uri/uri.php';
line 617    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/legacy/component/helper.php'; //'/libraries/joomla/application/component/helper.php';
line 618   require $joomlaBase . '/configuration.php';
line 619
line 620    jimport('joomla.application.cli');

In the file: administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Utils/Hook/Joomla.php

line 53         $app = JApplicationCli::getInstance();

I will test processing emails and then see about the bounces
Thanks!

I filed a patch against: http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-12096
to address this. it ensures that we retain functionality for both 2.5 and 3.0

would be great if you can test.
