Installing or Upgrading to 1.9 - Problems and Solutions

[NikNak]

Hi NaN

error reporting stuff: http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 573.0.html
(recommended setting for cmsms since 1.7 - might not be needed for the CMSms 1.9 core but for some modules)

In my CMS backend System info where it says Is E_STRICT disabled in error_reporting (E_STRICT): I have a tick. But I am still getting the exact error with CGGoogleMaps mentioned by janvl a few posts back.

Notice: Modification of internal data is deprecated: CGGoogleMapsmap_count in /is/htdocs/wp1090520_UOYN90HLH3/www/cms/lib/classes/class.cms_variables.php on line 46

Notice: Retrival of unauthorized internal variables is deprecated: CGGoogleMapsmap_count in /is/htdocs/wp1090520_UOYN90HLH3/www/cms/lib/classes/class.cms_variables.php on line 32

If the System info says E-strict is disabled, should I be looking for the solution elsewhere, or could there still be an Error reporting issue?  
I am running PHP 5.2.14
CGExtensions 1.21.3  (the post at the beginning of this thread suggests the issue is resolved with CGExtensions 1.2 )
CGGoogleMaps 1.5.6
CMSMS 1.9.1

I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling CGGoogleMaps but to no avail.

Kind regards

Nik

Hi,

I uninstalled CGGooglemaps and installed Googlemaps instead, works like a charme.
Maybe that module is better for a shared hosting environment.

I hope it solves your problem too.

Kind regards,
Jan

Thanks Janvl - its good to know about a working fallback option.

E_STRICT != E_DEPRECATED != E_NOTICE

A Notice is just that, a 'Notice'.  They can be ignored... and displaying them should be turned OFF for production environments (just turned on for upgrading and diagnosing problems).

A Complete Rewrite of CGGoogleMaps will come out today or tomorrow... I kinda fugged up my release attempt yesterday.

GoogleMaps module is deprecated, author is unavailable, and should not be used.

Thanks CalGuy

I have been trying to work out how to turn these notices off, with no success. My system info says it ignores E_Strict but I still get the errors. When I tried the suggested addition to php.ini for php5.2.x I lost other functionality in my site.

Thanks for letting me know not to panic though.

Kind regards

Nik

Thanks Calguy,

I like your Module so much better, but it has to work, as it does in 1.8.2.

So for now I will leave the customer with the old Module untill
yours is ready.
Problem is that for low budget customers I do not get enough
webservices for the money, like I get in the usa for example.
It is getting better in the EU though.

Kind regards,
Jan

You can start the upgrade process, by navigating to your-domain/install/upgrade.php

Hi

I've just made an upgrade to CMS 1.9.1 and it seems to have caused a problem with the Calendar module on my system. Tried using the new CGCalendar module but having the same problem.

Basically it has taken all links within the calendar item and added a mass of redundant code whilst trying to make the link an absolute link (even in the case of external site links):

Link should look like:

Code: Select all

<a href="{cms_selflink href='home' }">Test</a>
<a href="www.webber-design.com" target="_blank">Test</a>

But after submit it is killing the links by turning them into:

Code: Select all

<a href="\"\\\\\\"{cms_selflink\"">Test</a></p>
<a href="\"\\\\\\"http:/www.webber-design.com\\\\\\"\"" target="\"\\\\\\"_blank\\\\\\"\"">Test</a>

The problem occurs after the calendar item has been submitted. Before submission it looks fine. No problems with normal pages at the moment when editing pages, just the calendar modules.


Also all versions of the CMS 1.9.1 I have installed have a stupidly long rendering time and is almost causing servers to time out. This is the same on multiple sites, from different servers/companies



If there is anyone who can help that would be greatly appreciated. Contacted the developers but can't get a response

I also have a slow website, front end as well as back end. It's not taking forever to load, but I have the feeling it takes more time.

I'm not sure how to measure to exact time it takes before the page had finished loading, but http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/ seems to give a rough figure.
With that tool i found that front end used to take 1.7 - 2.3 seconds to fully load, now it's up to 3.0-4.4 seconds. That's a bit less than double the time it took before upgrading to 1.9.1!

The back end feels slower, I can't give specific figures, but for example the content > pages just doesn't feel as fast as before.

But, I can live with it...
Front end is still fast enough for the purpose of the website and the back end just looks so sweet! 

Just wondering if more of you have this behaviour as well.

Hi ringportal,

did you do an upgrade or a clean install with 1.9(.1)?

I am not sure but I will try if it feels like you said,
it is hard to notice with an ISP as I have here in
Austria . . . it is slow anyway.

Kind regards,
Jan

Just activate the performance info, in the config.php. The variable is available in config, but not active....

$config['show_performance_info'] = 'anything';

Still two probs in TinyMCE after upgrade to 1.9.1
1. TinyMCE fails if spellchecker plugin is activated. Caused due to the second toolbar where spellchecker is placed by default during installation. Spellchecker is only allowed in the third bar. If placed in the second bar and activated TinyMCE will stop to work.

2. Plugin pastetext does not work. Clicking on the button does nothing (no popup, no errors). Plugins paste and pasteword work as desired at the same time. I was not able to find out where the problem derives from.

i feel fairly uncomfortable repeating my posts, but it's been a week and my website is down, and i am unable to fix it. is there ANYTHING i can do to fix the issue?

i was running 1.8.2, made a complete backup of the site, and installed 1.9.1 full OVER the old site. since then unable to log into the back end or view the site.

please, help.

I did a new fresh install 1.9.  on a local server

When working with userdefined Tags, "APPLY" behaves identical like "SUBMIT" which means the content is saved and the user is sent back to the UDT-list.

The normal expected behaviour of "APPLY" is to store and keep that dialogue open instead of returning to the list like "SUBMIT"

Update: I updated to version 1.9.1 and this problem is fixed (was not listed in the changelog.txt so I thought I should post this)

I use 1.9.1 (after upgrade from version 1.9 on a local machine)

I want to set TinyMCE options, especially the options in the "Advanced" rider depending on my selected language

My settings / Language = German
I cannot edit the last option "Additions to stylesheet:", I cannot delete and or add text, when I try to do the module-dialoge gets closed

My settings / Language = English
I can edit and modify that option
