Important Blank page on update from 1.6.4 to 1.6.5

After installing the 1.6.5 version I started the update process, but it turns into a white site (on both Joomla! 1.6.6 and 1.7.0) - tested with both Norwegian and English as default admin language.

Then if I go back in browser, and try to run the update process one more time it results in a Error 500:



Glad we have Akeeba around.

Hello,

You have the file corrupted components/com_kunena/toolbar.kunena.php, change the installation way if you have used zip, use link for directory.

Try to use an another file format or unzip the package should help

Right ... actually I was using the tar.bz2 pack, but when using the zip now it went fine. Except a 500 error about a already exiting menu item for forum, but got past that on next try. :whistle:

Think we need to check if it's something wrong about the tar.bz2, or the way the installer handles it. The server itself shouldn't have any issues packing it out, and tar.bz2 is my first choice for all packs when it's available (have used it for long time in J!1.5).

This is a bug in Joomla! itself, which causes an unknow error with tar and tar.bz2

OK, thanks for the info.
Btw! Do you know if it has been reported/added to the tracker already?

I had said somthing wrong, it's the way to generate the package but it's not related to Joomla!

i also had problem relating to toolbar.kunena.php when upgrading 1.6.4 to 1.6.5 in J!1.7.0.

I had tried to use both the com_kunena_v1.6.5_b5005_2011-07-27.zip and com_kunena_v1.6.5_b5005_2011-07-27.tar.gz directly from the J!1.7.0 extension manager.

With the error still showing on screen i pressed 'back' and was sitting at the 'upgrade kunena' screen during the installation process, i then opened administrator/components/com_kunena/toolbar.kunena.php and found it only went as far as 'case "show' on line 47 rather than the 167 lines in the actual archive. i copied from the archive and pasted to the live file, saved, pressed 'upgrade' again and it went through seemingly fine.

I do have the same issue ...tried all file formats to install, including reinstall and new install of Kunena.....i get always the same issue.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /var/www/xxxxxx/administrator/components/com_kunena/toolbar.kunena.php on line 47

Could you please help me?

Update: Solved like BigDutch did it!
