1.5.2 update, some Plugin updates failed

[aschlemmer]

Hi!

Some of our plugin updates failed while updating from 1.5 RC.

I get:

Code: Select all

Error: serendipity_plugin_popularentries:abf815969b120910fc69145b5df8a449 

Error: serendipity_event_regexpmarkup:9dfcaa6a54454bfafb5960da9b1a097b
Error: serendipity_event_popfetcher (no. lost)

Error: serendipity_event_userprofiles:437bc93d1f19d3d429363c1cfec8aff9

All active others seem to have updated nicely.
Any hints for me? "Error" is not a very helpful message, but better than no message ...

Kind regards,
Achim

Hi!

How did you update? This error usually only happens when the plugin files are no longer existing.

Did you extract the new version over the old one, keeping all existing files? This is how an upgrade should be performed, you should never have to delete/move any files...

Check the serendipity_plugins table, all the plugin directories/files with the ID that are contained in the output seem to be missing, which is why it only says "Error"...

Thanks Garvin!

I am asking me now: how do I extract the update over the existing files? I am able to use a SSH connection to my LAMP hoster.

I gave it a second try, extracting by hand in the plugins directory, et voilà, all fine -- that's a real noob mistake replacing the whole plugin directory. Sorry and thanks.
