TOPIC: 500 - Something went wrong

Hi,

I just wanted to test CTransifex on my local PC (using xampp 1.7.3, Joomla 2.5. to find out if I can get it working for the VirtueMart project (I'm one of the volunteers who are taking care of VirtueMart translations). Basically my configuration seems to work, because I can see the available translations from our Transifex project with the blue percentage bars on my screen. But when I click any of the languages links I get:

500 - Something went wrong
Something went wrong
Call stack
# Function Location
1 JSite->dispatch() JROOT\index.php:42
2 JError::raiseError() JROOT\includes\application.php:208
3 JError::raise() JROOT\libraries\joomla\error\error.php:251

---

If I click i.e. on the "german (Germany)" language pack link, the url
http://localhost/mysite/en/vm-translations?task=download.download&language=9
(Same link but non-sef:
http://localhost/mysite/index.php?option=com_ctransifex&task=download.download&language=59&Itemid=340&lang=en)
leads to the above 500 error.
The language file folders holding the zip files are actually placed in the folder:
...mysite\media\com_ctransifex\packages\virtuemart

Might be a dumb question, but does anybody have an idea what I might be missing to get the links working? (Maybe it's a Joomla problem)
I don't see errors in the error log.

Happy New Year

Could you enable joomla's debug modus and have and give me a stack trace when the error happens?

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately the three lines mentioned above already are the complete Joomla debug stack.

Firebug doesn't catch any errors either. I think I should try with a fresh Joomla installation (no other components) and see if the result is the same. Firebug doesn't catch any errors either.

Hi Daniel,

I just tested again on a fresh Joomla 2.5.8 without sample data and there it works out of the box. Still no idea what the problem is on my other installation, but that's a Joomla problem I suppose.

I think I'll discuss using CTransifex on virtumart.net with the chief developers soon.

Update: We'll most likely replace our current Transifex language pack distribution system with CTransifex, which looks nicer , but before that the team has to finish the update from J1.5 to current Joomla.
