svn/stable/3.7, "Could not fetch addon package..."

Friday 09 December 2005 8:17:50 am

When I attempt setup of a shop site, I get the following error. I do not know what it means and cannot find mention of it anywhere on the ez.no web site. Does anybody know what's the matter and how to fix it? I'm using Postgresql 8.0, and Ubuntu 5.10. I have ezpublish checked out from the svn repository, and it's version stable/3.7 fresh as of yesterday. I have made one change, posted at end.

Creating sites

The setup wizard was not able to complete the creation of your selected sites.

The following errors were detected:

* EZSW-050

Could not fetch addon package named products

* EZSW-040

Failed to initialize site package shop

If you think you have fixed the errors you can try and click the "Retry" button.

Hi,

If you download eZ publish stable/3.7 from svn, the packages will not be retrieved (because they are stored separately in some other repository) and "your_ezpublish_stable_3.7_root_directory/packages" directory will be empty. As a result, the setup wizard will not display the list of packages on the "Site functionality" step, then you will get EZSW-050 and EZSW-040 errors on the last step (the setup wizard will stop).

To fix this, you can do the following:

1. Download the latest version of the 3.7 branch from http://ez.no/download/ez_publish, unpack the archive and copy the "packages" directory to "your_ezpublish_stable_3.7_root_directory".
2. Add the following lines to the "site.ini.append.php" file located in the "your_ezpublish_stable_3.7_root_directory/settings/override/" directory:

[SiteAccessSettings]
CheckValidity=true

so that the setup wizard will be initiated when trying to access the site (if the file does not exist, create it).

Best regards,
Sveta
