Just installed the news extension and it crashed my Magento - php

Just installed the extension and it crashed my Magento site. I'm tried so but it not working Does anybody help what to do?

Just open app->etc->modules-> and find the .xml file that you currently installed. and Open this xml file and edit
<active>true</active>
to
<active>false</active>
then clean cache from var->cache
hope this will recover your problem.
thanks

Just delete the temperory file "maintenance.flag" from root directory then your website will works back.
Hope this will help :)

When an extension is being installed, a temporary file is created to set the magento website unavailable to the public. Check if the file is there and delete it. The file is named maintenance.flag and placed at the root folder of your magento installation.
Otherwise provide more information to get support but normally this place is for development problem and you should contact the author of the extension.

MyBB Forum Setup

I'm currently trying to setup myBB forums on my website. I go to the install directory but it just shows all my files instead of showing the setup to install. Also, when I try to open the install/index.php, it just says file not found although you can clearly see that it's there. If you could help me out, it would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the install directory on my website: http://blacksunswg.com/forums/install/
If you are running a localhost, you need to put the files that are inside of "Upload" into your htdocs folder and then open your localhost in your browser for the installation to pop up

Local xampp wordpress installation - cannot find wp-blog-header.php

I'm working locally with XAMPP and Wordpress and I'm struggling with what is probably a very basic config issue. I'm not a professional IT guy, just a hobbyist hacker so I apologise in advance if I'm being a bit dumb but hopefully somebody can kindly offer some assistance here.
I've installed xampp locally on my iMac. I've then installed wordpress using the xampp wordpress installation package. Both seem to be working fine. To test the web server I created a simple .php test file and this generated the expected output when I entered "localhost/hello.php" into my browser. As far as wordpress is concerned entering "localhost/wordpress" gives me access the local wp interface to create and edit posts, change display settings etc etc. So far so good...
Now I want to create a new .php file that includes the instruction:
require('XXX/wp-blog-header.php')
where the "XXX" is obviously the relevant directory path for the wp header file.
I cannot find this file, or indeed local wordpress files, anywhere (and I've searched extensively). In the "home" location for "localhost" (which I know from my "hello.php" test) there isn't even a wordpress directory so I'm totally puzzled as to how typing "localhost/wordpress" in my browser is accessing the local wp installation or how to go about determining the correct directory path for the wp header file I'm looking for?
I do understand that with this stack a great deal of info will either be generated on the fly, or stored in the local mysql database as opposed to the file structure, but I thought I would find some reference or alias somewhere to help me trace this through and determine what path to include in my .php file for wp-blog-header.php.
I've searched this forum and while there are several related questions I haven't found anything that helps me with this particular issue.
Thanks vm,
Ian
The location of your Wordpress files is:
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress
Ok I found the path I needed and (partially) understand why I couldn't locate it. As Scriptonomy helped me identify the Wordpress files are held at:
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress
While my test.php file is held at:
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/test.php
The reason I couldn't locate either wp-blog-header.php or wp-load.php is because these there is an another "htdocs" sub-dir under the wordpress install location i.e.:
../apps/wordpress/htdocs
However I (as user "admin") don't have access to read this directory and so couldn't see the contents and therefore couldn't find the files. The permissions on the directory belong to "daemon" which I guess was the XAMPP installer package? Setting the directory path in my test.php file to:
../apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-load.php
somehow the web server (?) can read the file (even though I can't see it myself via the Finder application) and so the code is now giving the expected result.
So problem solved even if I don't quite understand the solution!
Thanks for replies which helped me eventually get to a solution!
Cheers,
Ian

Magento extentions not loading in MAMP

Hi I have a complete fresh build and fresh database from the production website and loaded everything in to MAMP but some of the extensions I can see on production not showing up in my local I tried permissions and .htaccess file but nothing Emptied cache as well re installed new etc
I usually do a GIT pull from production to get the latest and the database is also newly imported
If the files are "showing up" in the folder structure but the extensions are not appearing in the site. Make sure that
there is an appropriate file inside app/etc/modules for each extension
the module is set to "enable" inside the admin (System->Configuration->Advanced->Advanced).
if the module is an admin module you may have to log out and log back in again.
Agree with Alan though, would help if you were more specific with regards to "not showing up" - this is just general advice.
Seems I fixed it I deleted all database entries for the extensions which I had issues with then enabled the extension in etc/module and empty cache

What are all the possible fixes to the error 'Unable to create directory /wp-content/uploads' when trying to upload images in Wordpress?

I am getting the following error
Unable to create directory /wp-content/uploads. Is its parent
directory writable by the server?
whenever I try to upload images via the Media tab in Wordpress. I am running on a LAMP setup, specifically on Ubuntu with Wordpress version 4.1.1. I'm working on a localhost site otherwise I would provide a link. I've tried all of the solutions that I have found and so far, none of them have worked.
Things I've tried:
I recursively changed the permissions of the wp-content folder to 777. (I'll downgrade the permissions to a safer setting after this problem is solved.)
I changed the group owner of the uploads folder to www-data as seen in this solution so that Apache would have group ownership of the folder.
I deleted the .htaccess file and resaved the permalinks setting.
I tried changing the uploads path in wp-config.php.
I asked this same question on the Wordpress forums and received one answer that I tried, but it didn't work for me. At this point I have no clue what to try. If anybody has an idea of what I need to do to get this to work it would be greatly appreciated.
When permissions or files become corrupted, it can often be worth re installing the WP core files from scratch, I recommend downloading the WP files from the codex site.

Wordpress theme upload error PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT

I'm new to php as well as wordpress however because of some need I had to work with wordpress only. So just to start I read a tutorial and created a wordpress theme of my own and when I tried to upload my theme I got the below error:
The package could not be installed. PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature
Searching for the same I've found that usually the cause of such an error is maximum available space or upload file size issue. However since I'm working on localhost I don't think it could be the case. Moreover I've increased the upload_max_filesize, post_max_size and memory_limit as well. But still I'm getting the same error.
I'm using Wordpress 3.5.2.
This error due to you are trying to upload Other than ZIP Compressed version. Other format is not supported while uploading the plugin in wordpress.
You should unzip your plugin and make sure you compress with ZIP format and upload it will be working fine.
One of simple alternative is to download theme package, upzip it and upload through FTP whole theme folder into
/wp-content/themes
Then go to Admin CP and switch to new installed theme.
please check that only those file are here that you wan to upload. i was getting same problem, then i search on folder, there was already zip folder in it. after uploading that zip file. the problem was solved. Now the themes is activated.
I had this problem while trying to install Wordpress plugin from the Wordpress interface. Turns out the disk space quota was full for that specific account. I went to WHM manager and increased the quota and the problem was solved.
I got this error when I had the zip-plugin not installed. For Ubuntu/Debian and php7.4 (Bionic) you can use
apt-get install php7.4-zip
service php7.4-fpm restart
I had a similar problem when I was installing plugins for a theme. It appeared that in the meantime plugins' download url had changed, updating it solved the problem :)
I found one more case which may help you.
It throws the same error if the zip file is incomplete or corrupt.
This is because you are uploading the theme as a ".rar" file.
Convert the theme into ".zip" file and then upload it to your site.
For converting into the ".zip":
Right-click on the folder of your theme folder.
Select "Send to".
Click on "Compressed (zipped) folder".
Upload ".zip" file to your WordPress site.
I had the same issue, it turned out the problem was that the virtual server had exceeded its quota. (I'm using Virtualmin, and had a 1GB quota on that website's virtual server).
After increasing the quota, the problem went away.
