Hi,

I am completely new to EE, we’re looking for a new CMS that will support multiple languages and I came across Publisher as an addon - however as soon as I have enabled the addon from the backend the following error is displayed.

Maybe I am missing something extremely obvious. I’ve read and followed the install instructions and I have also done another install on a different domain with different PHP and mysql versions and I’m getting the same problem.

I am currently using both the free version of EE and the trial of Publisher. I want to make sure it will work before committing to purchasing the addon.

Thanks in advance.

Richie

Hi Richie. Welcome to ExpressionEngine 😊 I usually don’t support the free trials but since you have a clear error message I’ll take a look. What version of PHP do you have?

Actually this looks like a different issue… a slight regression from some new code. The next comment will contain a link to a new build.

You might also have to run all these queries on your database at the same time to force remove Publisher b/c you might be stuck in a half installed state.

delete from exp_extensions where class = 'Publisher_ext';
delete from exp_modules where module_name = 'Publisher';

SELECT * FROM (
  SELECT CONCAT('DROP TABLE ', GROUP_CONCAT(table_name) , ';')
  FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
  WHERE table_name LIKE 'exp_publisher_%'
) a INTO @mystmt;

PREPARE mystatement FROM @mystmt;
EXECUTE mystatement;

So to be clear, copy/paste those queries into SequelAce, phpMyAdmin or a similar tool and execute them all at the same time. Drop in the new build files and try to re-install again.

Sorry this happened to you :(

Good morning Brian,

Thanks for the update, I’ll let you know once I’ve had the chance to make the changes.

Richie 😉
