Hi, I've tried downloading several of my components on the j3.0 framework and when I go to create a menu item for an item view of anything I get this error:

500 Library path C:\wamp\www\J3CB/administratorDScomponentsDScom_credits\classes cannot be found.

is there any way I can fix this manually? If not any idea when it will be fixed in j-cook?

I know work is still on-going, but I'm really quite keen to start creating in j3.0 as we have clients who are determined to be working on the j3.0 framework. and everything else is pretty much there its just this one thing holding my progress up. Any Ideas?

Cheers

+ 1 for me
search filter issue perhaps?

I deleted filter brick and recreated step by step (one filter value at a time)

I have found that if i use just dropdown combos it appears to allow it to create menu item

i added a range filter with a date field and it appeared to work

i added a search field and then got the same error

if you dont delete and recreate the filter it wont allow you to create a menu item

*** Also noticed that the search filter will not allow you to add more than one field

Just a thought - i noticed that i had not named my search filter in the properties box

Further Testing
Today Downloaded component and same error

I can confirm that it relates to the filters
- filter brick had one combo and one search filter
- Deleted Filter Brick from the view
- rebuilt project without the filter brick

Menu item created successfully

Created filter brick with search filter only
menu item created successfully

created a brick with search AND combo filters
Library path error

Same for me. It does not work when filters are applied

Hi sorry to pester, but do we have any news / time scale until this problem is fixed / looked at / acknowledged? I know things are still in beta, but we have a client desperate to use this and we may lose him if we can't give some idea as to when the problem will be solved. This is the only thing stopping me from continuing I have all my custom code written up in a j2.5 version. ready to transfer.

Cheers

I think there are mixed issues here.

DS constant is defined in loader for 3.0 because even if Joomla is not using it anymore, Cook recreates it because it is very usefull.

But it was defined too late.

Fixed.
Now it should be better.

In the component i just downloaded issues still exists - unless i installed from alternate directory by mistake (i will check)

Found the reason - administrator/helper/loader.php
It took me a while to actually see the reason... because when you read the code in the helper/loader.php file it looks fine

Just changed my loader.php file and it now installs correctly without error

is full ofthat is period-space-DS-space-period
it should beperiod-DS-period

did a search and replace on helper/loader.php and works fine for me
MENU ITEMS NOW INSTALL WITHOUT ERROR

Hope it helps

Hi There Again

Also found thein the file.php -> get markers function
The 'DIR__TRASH' contains

Really ?

I don't think so... In PHP it shouldn't be any difference ...

I do not understand this. It goes over my head.

I am by no way a PHP expert either
- but all i know is that the issue stiil existed (for me at least) before i posted
- and when i made those changes on the download / local install somehow "something" was fixed
- I Did download several times and the error still happened after i posted
- However i do believe it COULD be my mistake - sorry

I was thinking that when this was fixed by changing the code that it had something to do with defining the DS constant in joomla 3.0
and that '.DS.' is not the same as '. DS .'

but no its not defined as a string with periods
- perhaps there was a cache file somewhere???
- i do remember an issue with the hits function a long time ago

But the current download
- now installs menu items with various filters without any issues
- A fresh download now shows categories in the menu item properties
- how long has that been there?
- even though the . DS . is still present in the current download it creates menu items without error

Those fixes are recent. (2.5.3)

Happy, if all is working.
I will close the other ticket about filters in menu item.
It is actually still opened because I couln't raise the issue.

These days I am doing a debuging session !!!

[MOVED TO CLOSED TICKETS] www.j-cook.net/index.php/forum/new-ticke...reated-properly#7588

I am sure i posted more detail and thats why i marked it as solution with question mark

the solution was T_object... and the file upload parameter within the code in the front and backend forms

YES That post was split to here www.j-cook.net/index.php/forum/closed-ti...-uploader-issue#7660

But, maybe it is raised somewhere else, because when I saw my code I noticed another possible issue. I am still working on this.

Before to post a new ticket, download the last version of your component.
(In this moment you love the FORK feature... Have fun)
