Thanks for the input.

Two things....

1.would it be better to delete the old module first? Then in copying there would be less chance of a misrouted file reference...???


2.although it has come up several times in forums and there has been <i>some</i>help, backing up the database seems pretty variable depending on whether you choose to use your isp's setup or phpMyAdmin etc. Is there any for Dummies type walkthrough that you know of?

This must be trivial, apologies in advance.

When updating, the module often seems to contain instructions such as

Upload the new files.
Then run any update scripts....

My silly question is, does this mean just drag the whole folder on top of the one that is already there and choose overwrite same name files in your ftp client?

i.e. does the module usually contain a complete set rather than a differential set of files?

TIA

Re: agendax date selector not working

Thanks for the quick reply,

Javascript, I am pretty sure, the other small sections of the date selector are fine. Like the menu for the years etc. it is only the dates.

I am on a Mac with Safari-latest
Xoops 2.0.9beta
Agenda-X 2.2.0


I just checked with Firefox and it does work.
It displays really poorly though, the date selector itself is the width of the page, each cell really stretched out.

This is a test server, if you would like temporary admin access, you are more than welcome.

agendax date selector not working

clean install of Agendax 2.2.0
the date selector does not return dates, instead it returns the code for the date selected.

example
function (par)
{
return s[par] || par;
}-function (par)
{
return s[par] || par;
}-function (par)
{
return s[par] || par;
}


Any ideas on this one?

TIA

All good.

Here is a summary in case anyone else has this problem.

Have a 207 claen installation of Xoops.
Uploaded the files from the 209beta patch using ftp on a Mac OS X machine.

The permissions did not get set up right (cause unknown to date)
Changed permissions en masse to

rwxr-xr-x

except for cache, templates_c and uploads

All seems to work fine now.

Will install a few test modules and get back to this thread with news.

Mithrandir
thanks soo much for your time and help.

OK...well

beta root folder
most files have
rwxr-x---

working site root
rwxr-xr-x

Jus a thought, is this possibly caused by my ftp client?
I mean other people have installed the 209 beta successfully so...???

as you have surmised I'm sure I'm at a Mac OS X machine in Safari right now.
(in case it matters - sorry to be so newbie)


OK well, comparing the files on the beta with my working site (hosted on linux) err most of them have the wrong permissions....

think I will make the whole thing rwxr-xr-x and then go back and change those writable ones??

I would love to help and will...if I can.

I can look over a dozen or so files and see if the beta perms match the working 207 I have on my working site if you like.

as for fixing it...sorry, no idea where to go...

do yo uwant me to play ??

Oops, having fun but not helping you help me...sorry, I shall now refrain...

I thought it might be easy and undoable to change the permissions on
include/common.php.
Why? I referred to our main site (the beta is on the testing server ) and the perms on common.php were rwxr-xr-x but on this new beta, they were not.

SO, I changed the perms.

now...hehehehe

Thanks for that.

Well, I have done something wrong again....
Just to clarify though, my initial post implied two different paths, this was not the case, sorry.

Here is the latest the paths are all the same....xxx just to simplify.

So recap. I installed a 2.0.7 installation, all was fine.
I then ftpd the files from the 2.0.9 beta patch. No changes have been made to the mainfile.php - that I know of - and, I get these....

Warning: main(/xxx/include/common.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /xxx/mainfile.php on line 93

Warning: main(): Failed opening '/xxx/include/common.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /xxx/mainfile.php on line 93

Warning: main(header.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /xxx/index.php on line 43

Warning: main(): Failed opening 'header.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /xxx/index.php on line 43

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /xxx/footer.php on line 30
