Backlight 2 Install Troubles

Evagoras · 2018-09-14 00:48:53

After sorting out and adding the PHP ZipModule on my server I did the following:

As I am Upgrading from BL1 to BL2 I followed the instructions here http://backlight.theturninggate.net/doc … acklight_2 and kept:

/backlight/data
/backlight/custom

On my server:

I deleted:
/.htaccess
/index.php

/backlight/
/backlight/installer/
/backlight/.htaccess
/backlight/env.php.skel
/backlight/index.php

I was reluctant to delete:
/backlight/admin
/backlight/cart
/backlight/client-response
/backlight/designer
/backlight/framework
/backlight/modules
/backlight/publisher
/backlight/search

(should I??) I thought this would mess up my stuff e.g. CRG & Cart

I Copied from the extracted Zip file (Backlight-2-Installer-100.zip) to my server:

/index.php
/.htaccess
/backlight/installer
/backlight/env.php.skel
/backlight/index.php

I logged onto
/backlight/installer

Backlight 2 was installed successfully

I continued to Backlight

And got this:

Error message: Class not found: ClientResponseUtility. To fix this, reinstall Backlight at /backlight/installer. If the problem persists, please report error at http://community.theturninggate.net/viewforum.php?id=44

I followed the instructions to try again then got this:

SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1 no such column: enabled|#0 /home/evg123/public_html/backlight/modules/module-framework/dao/PdoExtended.php(524): PDO->prepare('SELECT display_...') #1 /home/evg123/public_html/backlight/modules/module-framework/dao/PdoExtended.php(156): PdoExtended->_prepareAndExecuteSqlQuery('SELECT display_...', Array) #2 /home/evg123/public_html/backlight/modules/module-framework/Framework.php(471): PdoExtended->selectRows('SELECT display_...', Array) #3 /home/evg123/public_html/backlight/modules/module-framework/Framework.php(433): Framework->handleLanguage(Object(AdminApplicationHelper), Object(AdminConfigManager)) #4 /home/evg123/public_html/backlight/modules/module-framework/Framework.php(151): Framework->initApplication() #5 /home/evg123/public_html/backlight/modules/module-framework/Framework.php(41): Framework->init() #6 /home/evg123/public_html/backlight/index.php(25): Framework->__construct('..', Array) #7 {main}|URL: /backlight/index.php

I tried the installer again and got this:

Something went wrong
Unexpected error: Class 'CartHelper' not found in GenericApplicationHelper.php on line 25
Please report error at http://community.theturninggate.net

Luckily i restored my site via a backup.

I wanna cry!

Yes, it is correct to delete the 'reluctant to delete' directories. Those are all application directories that are replaced by new ones located in the modules folder. All data is in the 'data' directory. So this you are good!

Did you install the other modules such as CRG and Cart? Backlight > Admin > Backlight Modules

I Copied from the extracted Zip file (Backlight-2-Installer-100.zip) to my server:

/index.php
/.htaccess
/backlight/installer
/backlight/env.php.skel
/backlight/index.php

Did you also copy over /backlight/.htaccess ?

Hi Evagoras, please try the installation from a different browser. It looks like you may have still been logged into Backlight 1 at the time of installation, and as such, the session thinks that Client Response and it's files are still there.

Ben · 2018-09-14 07:34:47

A second thought: did you remove the directories under backlight/modules/ prior to trying the install? It may be that the old version of the module at backlight/modules/module-client-response is still there, which is not compatible with BL2

Thanks guys,

I managed to install successfully.

However i now have:

Warning: require_once(./backlight/framework/Framework.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/evg123/public_html/index.php on line 17
Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required './backlight/framework/Framework.php' (include_path='.:/opt/cpanel/ea-php56/root/usr/share/pear') in /home/evg123/public_html/index.php on line 17

on my home page.

i have cleared cache.

That usually means that you didn't replace index.php in your home directory with the one that came with the installer zip file.

Evagoras · 2018-09-14 08:30:15

Thanks Dan

As well as
/.htaccess
/index.php

do i also delete:
/581C393BF27AE5119D3758D8857F6B0B.txt
/error_log
/gallery.xml
/lib.php
