I have just used the Quickstart package to install a fresh Joomla-1.5.8 site and this is the error I get immediately after installation.

<blockquote>PHP Warning: plgContentJA_highslide::require_once(plugins/content/highslide/parser.php) [function.plgContentJA-highslide-require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in <Joomla-install-path>pluginscontentja_highslide.php on line 67 PHP Fatal error: plgContentJA_highslide::require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘plugins/content/highslide/parser.php’ (include_path='<Php-Install-Path>PhPincludes’) in <Joomla-Install-Path>pluginscontentja_highslide.php on line 67
</blockquote>

The files and folders are all in place. Installation completed successfully and I have removed the “Installation” folder after install. Please help.

I have other Joomla-based sites on this server, so I know that it is not a server or php problem.

Without being able to see it, best thing I can say is check that the directory permissions are set to at least 755.

Just noticed you’re using 1.5.8 too, the latest JaZinc download should come with Joomla v1.5.9.

Then it must be 1.5.9

Hello, SP. Thanks for your response.

What do you expect to be able to “see”, and how do I make you see it? The only thing that could be seen on this new install is the error message I posted above.

Permission is correct, because I can use other templates successfully.

check if plugins/content/highslide/ actually exist on your webserver, as the error msg says its missing.

Are you running JaZinc on your local computer or an online web server?

If it’s a template issue, I’ll try and download the JaZinc Quick Start package when I get home, to see if it’s an error with the package itself.

As for what I can see, the FTP structure, and admin side.

Try checking your directory permissions via admin cp -> help -> system info -> directory permissions

It’s unlikely that will be the cause, but it’s a possibility. Check that HighSlide is installed, working and active too.

Thanks, sp.

This is on a server. And, no, I cannot get into the admin CP. Same error.

All the folders and files are there.

Well if I get the same error when I install later tonight, the JA guys may have made an error of some sort.

I’ll keep you posted.

Thanks, SP. I just did another test install with the Zeolite template and everything smoothly. I added the Zinc template, and no problem So, yeah, it’s something with the Zinc QuickStart install.

UPDATE: I say it is a JA_Zinc QStart problem because I just used the quickstart again to install Zinc OVER my new test install. Install went fine, able to get into the admin panel, but when I tried to get to the frontend, the same error comes up. Even switching templates back to Zeolite now brings up the same error.

Post up the issue in the Bugs forum and mark it for mods/admin attention.

I’ll verify nonetheless later on.

SOLVED: I went into the JA_Highslide.php and changed line 67 to look for the parser.php file in the correct location like this:

<blockquote>require_once(‘Drive-Letter:My-Common-Web-Folderthe-folder-for-THIS-instance-of Joomlapluginscontenthighslideparser.php’);</blockquote>

So, apparently, the require_once directive wasn’t properly locating the root path to the website location.

It’s quite strange you’d need to provide an absolute path rather than relative.

Good spy skills either way!

SP,

my experience with JA admins is that they are not very responsive, so I have come to rely on forum users like you for assistance. I still have a PM that I sent to one of the admins (AFTER I had posted the question in the public forum) that has been completely ignored for over a week or so, even though I still can’t find answers to the questions I asked in that PM.

I appreciate your assistance, SP.
