Magento upgrade via Magento Connect fails - php

I tried to upgrade our shopsoftware from Ver. 1.3.2.3 to 1.4.1.0 and I used the Magento Connect Manager. It loads all the files and said they has been installed, but they are not. Under “downloader/pearlib/download/” are all these files. Have I forgotten anything or is that maybe a bug in our customized shopversion?
I’m searching for days and hope, someone can help me here.

I'm in your shoes as well. I've got an upgrade to do as well, and trying to do it automatically didn't work out well at all.
Here's the only upgrade path I've gotten to work:
Install a fresh copy of 1.4.1.0
Backup 1.3.2.3 via Magento
Move media files from 1.3.2.3
Bring skin over, convert to 1.4.1.0's new requirements
Bring modules over - turn error reporting on, and check for issues (there were a ton with ours)
Good luck. I'm still having some issues with ours :(

Getting Page loading error after successful Plugin installation in Moodle

I have installed Moodle 3.7.1 with XAMPP. The installation had been successful and problem-free. I followed the below video for installation:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ov2dGoOBmSI&t=436s
Now my main objective is moodle plugin development. Since I am relatively new to this I was exploring plugins and trying to build a simple one first.
But whenever I am trying to install plugin (my own or from Moodle directory) I receive the SUCCESS message but then get 'Page Loading Error' and thereafter I am not able to go to any page
I found this thread on Moodle forums and have tried most of the solutions they offered.
https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=355930
I dont wish to work on older XAMPP version
My cache folder under Xampp's moodledata folder is empty and i tried clearing my browser cache and restarting the servers.
But the issue still persists
Any ideas what maybe causing this? I have a feeling that its some kind of configuration issue but I dont know where to look and what to look for.
Thanks for all the help. It took me alot of installation and uninstallations but finally when I downloaded the full Windows installer package--it worked.
I guess it was some kind of deeprooted version conflict between xampp and moodle or some configuration issue.

Wordpress database is not updating

So i have got an issue with Wordpress on my local machine i am running OSX 10.10.5
I am creating a Wordpress theme from the scratch and it seems to be an issue with the database. When i create a new post, it is not added to the database, next when i try to install a plugin, it is also not added to the database. I thought it is down to permissions, but no.
I have recently tried to install php mcrypt on my machine and was playing a lot with Apache/MySQL/PHP config files as well, maybe that affected as well?
I have completely removed mysql, still nothing.
I am running MAMP for local development so i thought it should be all good, but also no
If you have been playing with things that can be causing the issue, I think this will be very difficult to solve for you or any other, without knowing exactly what you have changed when the issue appear.
I recommend to just reinstall MAMP, WordPress and anything you have been playing around.
For self-experience, I recommend you to don't change things you don't know on a site that is a production site. Make a site for testing or at least, take a backup before. I have already learned that the hard way :)

Wordpress Plugins Not Installing (Ubuntu, Ssh2)

I'm running an ubuntu server with apache, and I have wordpress all installed. We're trying to get the themes and plugins available for install through the wp-admin console. So I used this guide to implement SSH2 instead of FTP.
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-secure-updates-and-installations-in-wordpress-on-ubuntu
So everything finally works for installing themes. I'm assuming when I'm uploading the zip and that's getting installed that it's correctly using the ssh settings.
However, when trying to install a plugin I'm redirected to :
http://ServerIpAddress/wp-admin/themes.php?page=tgmpa-install-plugins
That just gives me a "No data received" Chrome Page.
So the guide had me mess around with a bunch of permissions, but this almost seems kind of far removed from the ssh. The ssh is working for themes. It's not spitting out the same errors it used to when ssh wasn't implemented properly. So I figure this is something new. Has anyone seen this

Google Appengine 1.9.3/4 and WordPress 3.9 Admin User not Fully Functional on Localhost

I am getting several errors at different moments when using my local copy of wordpress on appengine.
It happens when clicking on "Posts", which shows error "Invalid post type", or when trying to create a new post, there is no save box/button.
It also happens when trying to change options in one of my themes in other places with plugins.
I get a lot of "You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page."
For the most part, the back-end is functional, the front-end is fully functional.
I am using appengine 1.9.3 and wordpress 3.9, python 2.7.6.
I have uninstalled 1.9.3 and updated to 1.9.4, I have also accepted Wordpress' request to install 3.9.1, the problem persists.
I have installed the 1.9.3, 3.9, 2.7.6 configuration on a different machine where app engine was never installed before and the same problem occurs.
I had appengine 1.9.0 and 1.9.3 working with WordPress 3.8.1.
The problem started a few days ago after a number of upgrades (from 1.9.3 to 1.9.4, and into wordpress 3.9.1).
Could this be related to additional layer on WPDB added in 3.9? http://make.wordpress.org/core/2014/04/07/mysql-in-wordpress-3-9/
Questions:
Anybody else experiencing similar behavior?
Will this propagate to google cloud if I update the version with launcher?
How do I solve this on my local copy?
Please, help!
This has something to do with the fact that Windows uses backslashes ("\") instead of forward slashes ("/") for its directory structure.
Try adding this in your wp-config.php just before require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php'); for a quick fix.
$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] = str_replace('\', '/', $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

Magento module works well on localhost but not on live server

I have a weird case here....
I'm making a simple magento module right now. Some kind of script injection module (similar to google analytics module). I've built the admin config for that module (which is defined from system.xml)
as seen on the image. This module works very well on my localhost. But it's getting weird on the live server. The modules looks like it doesn't enabled at all although I have totally make sure it's all already enabled. Both via magento admin area and also via app/etc/modules. That admin config area never appear on live server's magento installation.
does anybody know what's the issue with this problem?
or at least tell me how and where should I debug it? I've been digging it to magento core code but getting stuck on getSingleton() function somewhere around magento core code. I don't understand that way-too-MVC stuff :p
I would be very glad if someone could explain and guide me on this
thanks :)
The most common problems are associated with case sensitivity. If you have Windows hosting, then the error in the uppercase/lowercase characters is not visible and it works. But as soon as it gets to linux hosting, the module will not work.
Check the paths in the settings and folders/files - so that they match.
Usually there are three things:
typos in xml files (validate them with validator)
cache is not cleared after installation (clear cache)
ACL rules are not reinitiated (re-save admin roles)
If you adjust the layout/add your own layout in the backoffice of magento, it's best to clear the cache (remove everything in the var/cache/ folder) and to logout and re-login.
Thumb rules while deploying magento custom module on the live server-
Deploy your custom module
Flush your all magento cache or at-least refresh them
[System->Cache Management]
If you have enabled compilation re-run the compilation or disable compilation until the testing is done.
[System-Tools->Compilation]
