OSClass on Dreamhost

[sergeantash]

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestions, but unfortunately it takes a lot of time to make a public release (test code, make zip & tar.gz files, upload them to several sites -google code, sourceforge,...-, make announcement,...), we're currently fixing a lot of small bugs and errors. That's the point of a Release Candidate -RC-, we stop adding features to fix bugs, each two or three days we do a pre-release (RC, RC2, RC3,..) until we reach some mature state and publish the "Stable release". Very soon will be RC4 or the stable release, we're close!

Thanks for the feedback!

Understood Conejo and good strategy although I would suggest that you utilise just a single code repository, that way your overheads in keeping them all up to date are lower, also distribution of old code would be less.

To confirm, to get the very latest version of OSClass, should I download this:
https://github.com/osclass/OSClass/zipball/v2.0RC3

...once downloaded do I overwrite my existing install but retain my config.php file as I don't want to lose my current installation.

[_CONEJO]

Yes, that's the lastest release

[sergeantash]

Yes, that's the lastest release

Just to confirm Conejo, is that link the absolute latest development version (not necessarily released version)?

No, The latest development version should be found here : https://github.com/osclass/OSClass/zipball/develop

You can also access Github (our main repository) here : https://github.com/osclass/OSClass/tree/develop
That should be the link to the "develop" branch, but to make sure, you could check it under "Switch branches" (just under SOURCE), "develop" should be checked, then on the right side of the web, click on "Downloads", a pop-up appear and then on "Download zip" (or tar, as you wish). It's located under "Download source" (inside the popup). DO NOT select any option from below (download packages). Also, to make sure one more time, on the right side of the popup should appear "Branch: develop".

Then, unzip and copy the files over the one you already have, config.php should not be copied since it's created at installation times (there's no config.php on the zip package).


Why not releasing a tons of versions and let people know that link directly? Because if you're reporting a bug, we should know which version affects. It could be 30 versions (in dev speak, they're called "commits") per day at the develop branch. For every change be made, you perform a "commit" (upload edited files), so it could be crazy to track bugs from 30 differents versions on the same day.

One more time, thanks for your interest in OSClass, we hope it helps you and you enjoy using it. Thanks!

Thanks, I'm setting up the latest version now and will be more than happy to give some feedback!

Where is the best place to download beta plugins that are compatible with v2.0 RC3?

I have just overwritten my current build with the latest Development build, however I am still stuck with the two error messages at the top of the screen...

Notice: Plugin google_analyticsindex.php is missing its main file in /home/www.SITE.co.uk/oc-includes/osclass/plugins.php on line 100
Notice: Plugin google_mapsindex.php is missing its main file in /home/www.SITE.co.uk/oc-includes/osclass/plugins.php on line 100

What files must I alter to stop it referencing these old plugins?

[_CONEJO]

Both plugins should be included in the files you downloaded, let me take a look at that issue. I will inform you as soon as I got something.

Could you open your admin panel? Is that working? or it just shows that output and nothing more?

If you could go to your admin panel, go to the Plugins tab, click on manage plugins. Then, Uninstall both google maps and google analytics and once you uninstalled both,check if the notice appear or not install them again. Not 100% secure that will fix you error. The problem here is that your database is refering to old plugins files, so you have to change it manually, I that doesn't work, I will provide a fix for that at the end of the day.

Thanks

Unfortunately there isn't an Uninstall option for the plugins, it still says 'Install'? This is a fresh installation, so from that I would suggest that the plugins in your current Dev branch don't work with the new version. Really appreciate your help!

Hey Conejo, any update on when these two errors at the top of the page can be resolved?

[_CONEJO]

Yeah, it was an OSClass problem, fix we'll be release very very soon!
