Question Forum not working: Fatal error: Call to undefined function KUNENA_get_menu()

no idea what this is caused by.

i have to do a manual installation of kunena
seems like it worked but let me start this by asking a question

this is version 1.5.12
my DB is 5.1.26
PHP is 5.2.14
joomla version is Joomla! 1.5.15 Stable

when i log into backand and scroll over "COMPONENTS" then down to " KUNENA"
should it have any sub menus inside KUNENA ?
because mine doesnt.

After intallation i created a menu item to get to the forums
when i click it i get this

Fatal error: Call to undefined function KUNENA_get_menu() in /my server root path/my domain name.com/html/site/components/com_kunena/kunena.php on line 490

its just on a white screen.

Hello,

What do you call manual installation ?

Do you have access to the kunena configuration panel in backend ?

i had to upload the kunena folders into the temp directory
then do a install via directory

Is there some reason that is preventing you upgrading your website to J! 1.5.21? Is this your first Kunena installation on your website? Why did you consider it necessary to install in the way that you did? It seems to me that the installation procedure was unsuccessful. I would also encourage you to consider K 1.6.0 instead of K 1.5.12

not sure of these questions. They dont seem to help with the error but heres your answers mr Led

Is there some reason that is preventing you upgrading your website to J! 1.5.21?
had a problem running it on this server environment and the plugins / modules id like to use ( a few ) wont work with that J Version

Is this your first Kunena installation on your website?
On this particular website yes. Sort of
i tried installing K6 but it didnt work and i realized it was because of the J! version.
So i tired it uninstall it and had problems so i found all the Kunena folders and files and deleted them
then i went into the SQL DB and removed all tables that Kunena 6 creates

Why did you consider it necessary to install in the way that you did?
Because it wouldnt install via the common BROWSE FOR FILE method

It seems to me that the installation procedure was unsuccessful.
I can agree to that. Once i did the installation of Kunena here
i was able to read the SUCCESSFUL INSTALLATION screen that shows up when you have a..well... successful install

I would also encourage you to consider K 1.6.0 instead of K 1.5.12
I cant use that version with this version of J!

i have it working fine together on another server

On my other server i have
Kunena 1.5.12
DB version 5.0.91 community
PHP version 5.2.12
Joomla! 1.5.15 Stable

---

the only differance between the two is the DATABASE VERSION

Im not sure how any of these answers bring us any closer to the goal?

From the responses you gave I would have to agree with your basic conclusions. The web server that you are trying to use to host Kunena is not up to the task. If you have Kunena working OK on a different server then this supports those conclusion, too. You have basic problems running Joomla; these are the issues that need your focus. Your Kunena problems are incidental to more serious problems. I strongly suggest that you discuss your Joomla issues at the Joomla support forum ... or look for a webhosting service provider who gives you the assurances that you need in order to run J! 1.5.21.
