Question [Solved] - Cannot access kunena control panel after Install

Uninstalled previous versions of kunena, install 1.5.3 Stable, installation was a success, went to click on kunena configuration....

Problem:
so I looked at the code...

toolbar.kunena.php

Line 92:
Solution:

Line 92 change to:
This should allow you to enter the control panel for kunena!

Confirmed bug and fix. Cheers mate. I guess 1.5.3 is not the final stable

That is strange.

That line in the SVN and the package seem to be just fine, also on the local install on kunena.com.

Can you provide some details on what platform you are running?

Looks like that file got truncated during the install.

Just checked the SVN as well as the zip package of the final build.

They do not contain the error you mention. We need more info to diagnose what could be doing this to the files during the install.

BTW: That file does not end at line 92 - Its more like 125 lines.

Could you please unzip the package locally and confirm that it contains the complete file?

FX, you're right... something is causing the file to be truncated. local version looks as you stated. Any other info you need? The other guy also had the same thing so we need to find the cause.

This could be a problem, with the host... but I suspect that there may be other files also truncated.

Currently I'm using Joomla 1.5.11 with built-in SEF, Mod-Rewrite, add html suffix, & CB 1.2.1

Server details:

Apache version 2.2.11 (Unix)
PHP version 5.2.9
MySQL version 5.0.75-community-
log
Architecture x86_64
Operating system Linux
Path to sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail
Path to PERL /usr/bin/perl
Kernel version 2.6.28-9.16.intel
.BHsmp
cPanel Pro 1.0 (RC1)

Did you get a success message at the end of the install?

We have known about corrupted files by the Joomla installer, primarily on Joomla 1.0.x with certain gif files.
This is the first time I see php files getting truncated.

Truly a serious installer issue that we need to find the root for.

Would you happen to have another domain on that same host that you could install Kunena 1.5.3 on to see if it does the same thing?

Yes I received a successful install message. I checked the svn with my currently installed version it seems it was only this one file being affected. As for the cause of this I do not know yet.

I am going to do another install with a different domain name.

I have this suspicion that the culprit in my case might be JoomSuiteDefender! I am going to test this again and see if it still happens when I uninstall JoomSuiteDefender.

Yes - Please try to install without that component enabled.

Ok, I knew it... JoomSuiteDefender was the reason. I unistalled it and re-installed Kunena and everything is good now, the local files and the server files match

I'm relieved that it wasn't any fault on this release We all have been anticipating this release and I can wait to see what's next.

Well, now we need to find out what makes JoomSuiteDefender to break our file..
