MLP - The Multi-Lingual Publishing Pack

jmk · 2007-11-16 07:58:48

super. as a temporal fix, i reverted the l10n plugin back to .600. so it is somewhere in there ..

jmk

Yes, I can verify this on my local install.

Looking at the source, I see that I left a couple of changes in there from an attempt to fix sub-directory installs,

Can you try this version of the l10n plugin and let me know. If it works for you I’ll re-build and post the pack.

And thanks for the quick testing — enjoy!

I’ll rebuild and post the Pack now.

Fix to the problem reported by jmk has been posted to the MLP Pack page..

Here is a link to the file download.

Sweeeeeet, nice one Steve, glad to see you back and firing on all cylinders… and then some!

Looks good on my development site with 12 languages installed, even though our hoster has not upgraded MySQL to 4.1 despite their promise back in March. I’ll get onto them again. In the meantime I’ll bear in mind that MLP may well collapse; though it seems to be holding up impeccably so far.

One thing I spotted and don’t remember seeing before is a weird javascript error that Firebug throws at me on the MLP->Snippets->Search tab. It may well be MySQL related, but in case it isn’t here’s some info about it:

Error: xml declaration not at start of external entity
 undefined

While executing:

GET http:/...blah.com.../index.php?event=l10n&tab=snippets&step=l10n_search_for_names&l10n-sfn=

Apparently from line 213 of index.php, in JS function make_xml_req():

xml_manager.send(null);

Mean anything to you? Anywhere I can look to try and find what’s causing it? Or should I ignore it, since it seems to work anyway. If you want all 2150 lines of output in the xml response, or selective parts thereof, you’re welcome to them :-)

Test environment
Linux: (no idea the version, it doesn’t say on the control panel) / Apache 1.3.36 / MySQL 4.0.27-standard-log / PHP 4.4.4 / Txp 4.0.5 / Firefox WinXP

Hi. I haven’t applied the update in a client’s site. Although the site doesn’t have any issue related to MLP, I would like to install this new version.

Please, could you tell me the steps to apply this update?
Any file to modify? (I think that I’ve changed a file according a post by ruud so the MLP could work with TxP 4.0.5)
Or is it just about installing the base64 plug-in?

Thanks!

For upgrades / patches of existing installations here’s what to do…

Backup your textpattern/lib directory just in case.
Install all of the files from the zip’s /textpattern/lib folder. (Edited: Looking at the txplib_db.php code change from Txp4.0.4 to 4.0.5 shouldn’t effect the pack at all. However, if you want to keep your edit then don’t use the file in the zip, just stick with your existing one.)
Install the l10n plugin from the zip’s /plugins folder and enable it.

Your site should now work on php4 or php5 / TxP 4.0.4 or 4.0.5.

Thanks Stef, I see you have been busy yourself!

Yeah, if it installed fine for you in the first place then this update will be easy. If you were to try a fresh install of the pack on that host then it would say “sorry-no-can-do” during the setup wizard.

Will write more on this in a later post (if I don’t forget) as I’ll need to look into it myself. But it won’t be a high priority action for me if things appear fine for you.

Test environment
Linux: (no idea the version, it doesn’t say on the control panel) / Apache 1.3.36 / MySQL 4.0.27-standard-log / PHP 4.4.4 / Txp 4.0.5 / Firefox WinXP

Was that from your host’s control panel or the site’s admin > diagnostics tab? If you can glean the os kernel version and post that I’ll add your line to my previous table.

Many thanks.

Yeah, it’s no biggie. As I say, seems to work in spite of the error.

Aha! It was from the control panel. The admin->Diagnostics claims:

Linux 2.4.21-52.ELsmp

and

Apache version: Apache/1.3.36 (Unix) mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 PHP/4.4.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635.SR1.2 mod_ssl/2.8.27 OpenSSL/0.9.7a

Probably too much information, but it’s there if you need it.
