MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack

narf · 2007-02-17 18:21:03

Hello all,

are they any hints for getting this very nice pack to work under my environment? Its complaining about missing myQSL User privileges at setup… (i double checked the privileges…), i was using the latest release for MLP (15-02-2007).

Textpattern version: 4.0.4 (r1956)
Last Update: 2007-02-13 11:52:45/2007-02-13 11:48:36
(…)
PHP version: 4.4.4
Register globals: 1
MySQL: 4.0.27-standard-log
Locale: en_GB.UTF-8
Server: Apache/1.3.33 (Unix)
PHP Server API: cgi
RFC 2616 headers:
Server OS: Linux 2.4

Unfortunately i created the TXP database as en-iso-8859-1 instead of en-utf-8 :-(. Would you recommend creating a clean Setup with UTF-8 before installing the MLP Pack?

thx for hints!
N.

started experimenting with the plugin/mod on my local host… Here are the specs

Temporary directory path: localhost:8888/neme/textpattern/tmp
Site URL: localhost:8888/neme

These are the errors I get

front end

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare _check_version() (previously declared in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/neme/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(459) : eval()’d code:634) in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/neme/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(459) : eval()’d code on line 96

login page/write tab and a number of other tabs but not the plugin tab where I have disabled all except the ones coming with mlp

A problem occured while loading the plugin: gbp_admin_library -> Notice: Constant gbp_id already defined on line 4
Fatal error: Class ‘GBPAdminView’ not found in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/neme/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(459) : eval()’d code on line 12

It is not an emergency for us to have the plugin live but I would like to sort out the problems well ahead of that time:)
I’ve seen the plugin working in other sites so I know that it is going to be one of those invaluable ones to have…

At the moment I would recommend not running this on anything earlier than MySQL 4.1 — I’m working with guiguibonbon to straighten things out with MySQL 4.0.x

colak

can you email me your diagnostics set to ‘high’ — that looks like a conflict with another plugin you have installed.

net-carver · 2007-02-18 01:03:33

All

WIll be posting more regular development snapshots on my site. Thanks to guiguibonbon’s help we have identified some issues on MySQL 4.0.x platforms and there are some more to go yet.

You should find the latest snapshot fixes the problem with the ‘missing’ privilages problem.

Hi steve, You are right… I woke up this morning and rechecked it. I thought that I have disabled all the plugins except those of the mlp pack but I had the gbp_l10n enabled as I mistakenly identified it as being a part of the pack. I guess that it conflicted with the l10n plugin. I can now see all tabs and I will start enabling the plugins one by one so as to check if there any further conflicts.

All is kind of ok. Clicked the MLP tab to setup the installation and all looked fine. After clicking the button I got the following errors

A problem occured while loading the plugin: l10n -> Notice: Undefined index: archives2005 on line 4618
A problem occured while loading the plugin: l10n -> Notice: Undefined index: archives2006 on line 4618
A problem occured while loading the plugin: l10n -> Notice: Undefined index: sitemap on line 4618
A problem occured while loading the plugin: l10n -> Notice: Undefined index: archives2007 on line 4618

but the list which followed all checked ‘DONE’.

I guess it might have to do with the optional ‘publish.php’ which i included later…

beyond the above errors I have a question. How do you get the languages option in the front end?

Do I need to include a code somewhere in the templates?

Hello Yiannis,

that was fixed a little while back. You can ignore it if you want to otherwise simply download the latest version from the homepage you should find that the setup inserts the tags just fine.

colak · 2007-02-18 18:37:27

Thanks steve… downloaded the latest… I’m experimenting like crazy here. Your plugin is a whole system in itself!

marios · 2007-02-18 18:57:51

J.F.Y.N.: A Powershortcut has turned my Testing Server mashine into a black hole last week and therefore am not capable to test along, until I can get the required hardware together to build something new from scratch.

( Hopefully others here will continue to report bugs and try things out )

The plan also is to set up some documentation pages in the manual to document basic usage workflows.
( Will be done after that worstation is back )

regards, marios

Sorry for not posting during the w/e, Net Carver, and thanks for the updates. I’ll check them as soon as possible and give you a feedback. Your work very apreciated.

minor bugs
I’m experimenting on localhost using the id/title scheme.
My diagnostics say that “clean_url_data_failed” but the urls actually work in the front end.
Also in the Renditions tab the “view” link does not link to the localised text…
What I have done: I have a localised text whose url is …/el/587/abstraction-gr whereas the original text is on …/587/abstraction. The url linking from the “view” link points to …/587/abstraction-gr resulting in a 404…

Note that these problems are only in the back end and from the front all seems ok. I’ll keep on posting here as I discover things…

feature request
I would find the <txp:l10n_lang_list"/> more useful if It would just show the alternative languages ie. If I am in the english site to show greek and turkish (i know it’s not a supported language yet)… If other people here believe that this might provide a better functionality, do confirm… If not… I will not insist on it:)
