With the release of 14.04LTS, I upgraded my 13.10 install to 14.04. And my frontaccounting was broken on restart.

I reverted back to my 13.10 backup and restored the system to that 'older' state because frontaccounting has to be running.

I just wanted to post here that I had an issue and for others to be careful.

This weekend, when I have more time and the system is not in use, I will try again and then I will be able to determine what broke the frontaccounting.

Current system is a non-gui Ubuntu 13.10 server (updates current as of today) that is running frontaccounting v2.3.19 (was going to upgrade to 2.3.20, now, do that later.)

If anyone has suggestions of what I need to look at or has any experience (or success) with their Ubuntu 14.04 upgrade, I would sure appreciate hearing ideas and thoughts.

Or should I upgrade frontaccounting first?

I agree. It's not that I am not up for a challenge. It's more 'do I have time for this challenge' than anything else.

Thanks for your encouragement.

Thank you ostertagi for your time. I really appreciate it.

What you suggest, is slightly above my skill set, however, I will look into it and give a try. Thanks again.

My permissions are set to www-data:www-data for my frontaccounting directory.

I am hoping osteragi has some time today, as extensions is mostly what I would like to try. (Please, osteragi. If not today, when you have time.)

I want to add here that I really like the detail and completeness of FA. Good work to all who devotes their time to FA!

ostertagi, please, can you tell me how you installed manually?

Thanks tm.

I installed php5-curl package and still "Could not open" when I try to install an extension.

Suggestions?

I have recently built a FrontAccounting machine running on Ubuntu 13.10. System dianogistics is "green" on everything.

When I try to install any extensions, I get a "Could Not Open" in red across the top of the page. Then I tried languages, same complaint. Then coa, same thing. And finally themes.

I read through forum posts and 'openssl php extension' is discussed and my system diagnostics shows all 'green'.

I will add here that previously I had a Ubuntu 12.04LTS OS running FrontAccounting v2.3.16 and could never get extensions to install but, I thought I had something configured wrong. As it was my 'test' machine I 'blew it out' and built my current setup.

What could be causing my 'Could not open' issue? What should I be looking for?
