TOPIC: Unable to post comments after Compojoom upgrade

Hi!

I did an update of my website yesterday and now I am unable to post new comments... When I enter a new comment, instead of having the page reload with the new comment (i am not using ajax), I end on a blank page with a weird URL:
www.cognitionandculture.net//index.php?o...ment&josctask=noajax

The other thing is that logged in users can not edit comments anymore.

I turned on the xmlError alert and ajax debug option but can't find an error message.

I turned off sh404SEF but this did not change anything.

Any idea?

Now I use:
Compojoom 4.1.7
Joomla 1.5.22
sh404SEF 2.2.2.941

Hi man,
What happens when you turn ajax on? Is the component working?
I think that I'll need super admin + ftp access to debug the problem on your site. (would you send them via PM ?)

Have you followed the steps in the tutorial for the upgrade?

Just looking at the URL you sent here, it has a double // prior to the index.php part.
Not sure if that is important, doubt it, but worth checking of you have a problem of forslash etc.

But going to the link you've provided shows the problem as: joomlacomment: unexpected error. No plugin found for component '' !

Just a suggestion, check in your plugins directory that you have published the plugin for this.

Hi!

Thanks for the answers!

First, if I turn Ajax On, I can post new comments but I cann't edit them from the frontend, if I try to do that, it adds a new post and does not change the old one. If I can solve this I can stay with Ajax On.

Second, if Ajax is Off, I can't post new comments.

I can't remember following special upgrade instructions, should I try reinstalling it?

The Content - !CompojoomComment 4.1 plugin is active, MyBlog - CompojoomCommmentMyBlog 1.1 is inactive and mod_comments 4.1.1 beta 1 is also active. Of course, component comment 4.1.7 stable is also active.

Also, I have just noted that my config is:
Current Recommended
Joomla Version: 1.5.22 1.5.15 or later
PHP Version: 5.2.17 5.2.2 or later
MySQL Version: 5.0.90-log 5.0 or later

So my PHP version is a bit old, I can change for PHP 6, would that help?

Thanks,
Nicolas

PS: Daniel, if nothing comes to mind I'll give you the admin access.

Hey Nicoco,
The upgrade instructions look like this.
Go to settings->com_content -> make sure that complete uninstall is set to 0. Uninstall the component, then install the new version.

I don't know what is wrong, but I guess that something has messed up, so just do the above. If it doesn't help then provide me with admin access + ftp and I'll find and fix the problem.

Daniel

P.S. A backup before manipulating anything on your site is a good thing!
