JoomlArt Extensions Uploader On file upload to the Local Repository (because the component to update is not listed on JoomlArt) I receive the following warning and error messages:

Warning Warning: File JOOMLA_PATH/tmp/com_XYZ_J3.6.2_v3.6.2.1.zip not uploaded for security reasons!

Error Archive does not exist Unable to find installation package

[ Edit: All folders and files are belonging to the Webserver User ]

I tried a manual upload to the desitination directory (both: old and new zip file)

JOOMLA_PATH/jaextmanager_data/j30/component/com_XYZ/versions

but then it does claim

No new version found in Repository (JOOMLA_PATH/jaextmanager_data/j30/component/com_XYZ/versions)

Any idea?

BR, Sailor

Hi Silke,

Our JAEM component is free extension provided by us to help our customers update JA Products only with easy, not for 3rd party extensions.

Hi Saguaros,

That seems strange to me. In this case you should ask yourself, why

• you offer a configuration option "Hide None-JA Extensions" and show these Non-JA Extensions by default?
• https://www.joomlart.com/documentation/wiki-ja-extension-manager/admin-panel suggests to "change the update service for your third party extension"
• https://www.joomlart.com/documentation/wiki-ja-extension-manager/developer-guide "would like to document the development of external repositories to work with JA Extensions Manager"

At least a diff should be possible, right?

Best regards, Sailor

You’re right but the 3rd party need to be willing to provide update services via our JAEM

That is self-explanatory. But I still cannot distinguish supported and unsupported components. – How to achieve this?

1) JAEM suggests a path for each and every component (supported ones as well as non-JA) – how should I know that the component is not supported?

2) Is the local repository supported at all if it does not even support an upload in the documented way? – I can live with a clear "No", which saves me from unnecessary efforts to make it work.

Best regards, Sailor

Hi Sailor,

Let me explain this a little bit:

• There are 2 ways to update extensions (component/module/plugin) / templates: default Joomla update service and use our JAEM component.

• JAEM is provided free for JoomlArt users in order to update JA products, IF you want to update other 3rd party extensions via JAEM, please contact its provider / developer if they can be willing to support jaem update services.

• Otherwise, you will need to use default Joomla update services to update these 3rd party extensions.

I hope this makes senses.
