Add-on Install & Upgrade 1.4.3

[topcat]

Am i right in thinking that this addon stores a copy of each mod installed, both zipped and unzipped in the addons folder within the install folder.

my forums are on a dedicated server but I recently got the message that my accounts were temporally auto suspended due to lack of hdd space and i couldn't understand what was taking up the space.

Am I ok to delete the contents of this addons folder as i presume everything will have been copied to the relative folders

Most things would be cleaned up automatically. But, sure, they can be manually deleted. It's just temporary storage while the files are copied to the right places.

I'd find it difficult to believe that it'd be enough to cause your disk space to run out.

Most add-ons are less than half 1MB, even if you've installed 100 add-ons, that would still only equate to about 50MB. Though they are zipped up so extracted maybe 100MB or so. And that's an exaggeration.

What was the total amount of space used in that directory?

What was the total amount of space used in that directory?

not that big to be honest, was probably just clutching at straws. I just cant find whats taking up all the disk space. Only have 3 forums on a 500gb hdd

Check the database sizes.

 

[topcat]

Check the database sizes.

is there a quick way to do that without exporting the db

cheers

 

[Chris D]

PHP My Admin should list the sizes of each table.

 

[topcat]

yeah looks like it was the databases taking up most the disk space. Also still had the old vb databases

Anybody using this on their server using Centmin Mod ?

 

[rdn]

For this error: failed to open stream: Permission denied
I fixed it by running this

chown -R nginx:nginx /myforum/footfolder/

 

[electrogypsy]

For this error: failed to open stream: Permission denied
I fixed it by running this

do you mean /myforum/rootfolder/ ?

i chown -R www-data:www-data and that worked for me.

 

[rdn]

It depends on what server your using.
yes I mean the root forum directory.

Not works with 1.3.0 Beta 1

Not works with 1.3.0 Beta 1

What's the error?

 

[Chris D]

Not works with 1.3.0 Beta 1

Yes, it does.

 

[Chris D]

I wouldn't use the term "Yes it does not work" because that doesn't make sense.

Add-on Install & Upgrade works fine in XF 1.3. I've used it several times today.

 

[sayden]

Mh nothing in the live community nor in the test with me. No error!

 

[Chris D]

It could indicate an error with the actual add-on code.

Disable the add-on installer and try and install or upgrade using the default XenForo installer. There could be errors being suppressed by the add-on installer.

I have the hand enter URL's go!

@Chris Deeming
Does it support versions in the resource manager that have letters in them? for example, it says that I need to update an add-on since it went from 1.2.3 to 1.2.3b version. I've updated it, but it still says to update it.

Thanks

 

[Chris D]

That will be a case of where the version in the resource manager doesn't match the version in the add-on XML file.

Just "Ignore this update" and you won't get any further notifications until the version number changes again in the RM.
