CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi,

I just upgraded to CiviCRM 1.8.beta.10594 (civicrm-1.8.beta.10594-joomla-php4.zip). Here are some observations:

1) couldn't find any civicrm.settings.php files in the distro. Just copied over my old ones from the alpha.

2) CiviCRM  » Administer CiviCRM  » Global Settings » Settings - Addresses displays this error

      Please correct the following errors in the form fields below:
      * Address Standardization features require PHP version 5 or greater.

Upshot is that you can't save the res of the fields and I never touched Address Standardization, all the fields are empty

3) CiviCRM  » Administer CiviCRM  » Find Duplicate Contacts - gives this error

Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "CRM/Admin/Page/Dedupefind.tpl" in /home/bertie/public_html/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/packages/Smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1095

My resource URLs work with everything else...

4)  CiviCRM  » Administer CiviCRM  » Duplicate Contact Rules » Individual - Edit Rule
redirects to this page (domain changed)

http://www.domain.com/administrator/index2.php?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/admin/deduperules&action=update&id=1

and throws this error
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting '(' in /home/bertie/public_html/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Admin/Form/DedupeRules.php on line 100

Sorry haven't got time to check out the demo site with these at the moment...the pubs open!

a quick update.

issue 1) I just looked in the distro again and the civicrm.settings.php.sample file is there but it doesn't get copied to the joomla install.
issue 2) OK so you need php5 for Address Standardisation but if your not using it you should at least be able to save the other settings.

Kurund,

Thanks for the fix on 2139! I tried it out by updating the files refenced in fisheye but I think there are other changes that have been made that preceed 2139 that would also need to be made to my install. I can wait for the next tarball as I can just edit the prefences I need direct to the db.

Re the civicrm.settings.php.sample file. Why does it copy to templates/CRM/common/civicrm.settings.php.sample.tpl? I thought it would be copied to the two locations where it would need to be edited.

Any ideas on issues 3 & 4?

Cheers, Henry

Nice one Donald! I'm constantly amazed at the speed with which this project evolves and fixes issues.

(I also think that this is another strong argument for putting the last nails in the php4 support coffin. If my host doesn't get their act together soon I'll be shopping for another reseller hosting package!)
