Notes on Development and Testing MODx 0.9.7 from SVN

the file is called
http://www.hilverda.eu/manager/media/script/modext/tree/modTree.class.js
not:
http://www.hilverda.eu/manager/media/script/modext/tree/modtree.class.js
se the T instead of the t

so the file is there and accessible

Dimmy, go ahead and grab the latest SVN again. We’ve changed all the filenames to lowercase to prevent this bug. That should fix it.

Thanks for catching this.

I finally got down to cheking out the files, uploading them to my server and follow the install instructions.

All went well, up to the point were I clicked the install link (I do get redireted to .....setup/index.php?s=set) : I get a blank page.

I did check files :

[tt]core.transport.zip[/tt] is 1.2 Mb

I also have
[tt]core/packages/core/
core/packages/core/modUserRole
core/packages/core/modSystemSetting
core/packages/core/modEvent
core/packages/core/modContext
core/packages/core/modContentType
core/packages/core/manifest.php[/tt]

in each of the modXxxxXxxx folder I have several files with strange strings ending with .vehicle.php.
Example : 3100c03fa6489259edfa5166aab745cd.vehicle.php

Does that seem OK ?

I am running PHP 5.2.4
Apache 1.3.37

PDO
PDO support enabled
PDO drivers sqlite2, sqlite, mysql

pdo_mysql
PDO Driver for MySQL, client library version 5.0.22

In the meantime, I’ll try to do a local install with MAMP and check it out...

Hmmm, no, it seems the build script did not complete for you. The final core.transport.zip should be closer to 3.5 Mb. Make sure you have the ability to set_time_limit(0) in your scripts or else you need to up the max_execution_time in your php.ini. Building this transport is something that should be done on a local machine honestly. All it is doing is copying files, converting database rows to serialized data stored in the ’vehicle’ files, and zipping it all up for installation.

Ok Jason thanks for the tip !
I’ll do that local on my Mac and report with further testing

Edit : Local install went smooth
First impression about the manager : it’s fast, really faster than before...
Interresting to browse though the new DB structure too !

in 097, when we change the template and page reloads, all fields are being emptied. Its a bug I guess. This wasnt the behavior in 096.

Win/PHP 5.2.4
Apache 2.2
MySQL 5.0.45

During Transport Core:

[2007-11-30 18:25:05] (ERROR @ transport.core.php) Could not copy directory C:/www/modx097/manager/templates/default/css/_legacy/css to C:/www/modx097/core/packages/core/modContext/5a8f9c493547b1ac82330f55c27a1e23/templates/default/css/_legacy/css

Everything else seemed to work ok, even through the manager setup/install process.

Now, when I browse to "/manager", it’s simply an empty page...

I wonder if I need to implement sirlancelot’s recommendation from the SVN logs?

Commit 3198 took care of it! Thanks Jason

/manager working too!
