Symphony.

Hi All,

In the last hour I just installed Symphony from git. Installed all the default extensions and what have you and enabled them all.

Site was working fine until I added the following extensions:

git submodule add git://github.com/rowan-lewis/xmlimporter.git extensions/xmlimporter git submodule add git://github.com/oleae/codemirror extensions/codemirror.git git submodule add git://github.com/makenosound/cachelite.git extensions/cachelite git submodule add git://github.com/bauhouse/configuration.git extensions/configuration git submodule add git://github.com/nickdunn/orderentries.git extensions/orderentries git submodule add git://github.com/nilshoerrmann/datetime.git extensions/datetime

After adding these, which all downloaded without any hitches, upon visting the Extensions page to enable them, the page comes up totally blank. Any ideas?

I've had something similar happen to me due to an extension that wasn't compatible with the version of Symphony I was using. I had to do some digging around the database to sort it all out.

Do the following:

1. Completely remove the extensions you added from the file system.
2. Log into your Symphony database and look at the sym_extensions table.
3. Completely remove the records that correspond with the extensions you downloaded.
4. Now, reinstall your extensions, one by one. Using the process of elimination, you should be able to uncover the offending extension.

See if that works and, if it does, give us the name of that extension that borked your install. Might have to updated it or create an issue so it can be fixed.

Good luck!

Delete the custom extensions again and try adding them back in one after another. Basically for every one

cd extensions/extension
rm -rf *

then, one after another

cd extensions/extension
git reset --hard HEAD

This sorted it, thank you.

Turned out to be the codemirror extension it didnt like. Might have been something I did wrong when installing it, so for now I've got rid of it and will have another go at installing it again later.

Thanks for your swift responses

To remove the extension from the submodules index you need to modify .gitmodules and .git/config, removing three lines in each file. After that you should git rm extensions/codemirror and commit the change.

You had .git on the end of your codemirror extensions path. That's what it would have not liked.
