Re: Install extensions & Themes Not working

Make sure you use the latest v2.3.24+ from the Repo. Please read the install instructions in the wiki and related forum posts as to what files and folders should be writeable by the webserver process and enable them accordingly.

When you wish to install extensions/languages/themes/charts from the official repo, you will need to make the modules folder and it's sub folders writeable by the webserver process (755).

Re: Install extensions & Themes Not working

What platform are you on - Linux / Windows?
Have you enabled the various file functions in php.ini?
What does your Apache Error log say and are there any clues in your tmp/error.log file?

Re: Install extensions & Themes Not working

1. l'm using Linux Mint 17.1
2. All various file functions in php.ini is enabled already.
3.
Apache Error log:

Re: Install extensions & Themes Not working

None of the errors in log have anything to do with FA. They are possibly from LiveProjects.

Since you are using Linux Mint 17.1 which is the equivalent of Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr) which in turn is based on Debian 8.0 (jessie), you will not be using PHP v5.3.x for which FA 2.3 has been designed. It is also possible that your .htaccess file (which is for Apache 2.2) may be invalid for Apache 2.4 you are using. Remove the .htaccess file temporarily and see if it works. MySQLi driver is being used in these later versions of PHP instead of MySQL - you will need FA v2.4.x for use with MySQLi or backport them.

State your PHP / MySQL / Apache versions and what is in your FA_webroot/tmp/error.log file.

Ubuntu <=> Debian equivalents:

15.04  vivid      jessie
14.10  utopic     jessie
14.04  trusty     jessie
13.10  saucy      wheezy
13.04  raring     wheezy
12.10  quantal    wheezy
12.04  precise    wheezy
11.10  oneiric    wheezy
11.04  natty      squeeze
10.10  maverick   squeeze
10.04  lucid      squeeze
