[TH] Install and Upgrade [Deleted]

[ForestForTrees]

I'm interested in installing this addon as I expect that it will make it easier to update all of my addons while upgrading to 1.2. I had an idea for how to mitigate some of the security implications of using either this addon or Chris'. I think others might find it helpful as well. Here's the link:
http://xenforo.com/community/threads/using-linux-groups-to-improve-add-on-installer-security.63954/
Feedback appreciated in that thread.

I have some outdated addons that I have installed with Install and Upgrade. And none of them appear in the outdated list.

 

[Jon W]

We are working on a much improved solution to this.

I keep trying to install addons from links, I keep getting errors along this line:

Server Error

I feel like this has to do with write permissions on the server, and potentially ZIP setups, but I'm not sure what directories need these permissions or anything like that. Any ideas?

i change my host and got some error

1 - when i upload zip file
Unable to copy all files. Check permissions and reload page or upload manually to continue.

2 - when i use the xenforo.com url
Unable to Connect to tcp://xenforo.com:80. Error #0: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known

php version 5.5.6 ><

You will need to speak to your web host about these issues. It may be that you are unable to use this add-on on your server.

I have the same problem. This is a Windows 2012 Server/IIS server. This addon tries to use C:\Windows\Temp as the working directory instead of using upload_temp_dir from php.ini. Allowing write permissions to C:\Windows\Temp is a security concern as it is a system folder.

As was said this addon can't be used on Windows servers or any server that uses a system folder for temp dir until it is coded to use the ini directive for the temp upload directory. The other addon installer works fine. I wanted to use this one because it does more than just install/upgrade addons.

I get this error when the XML install script tries to run:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home/adminx/public_html/library/Waindigo/InstallUpgrade/Listener/TemplatePostRender.php on line 48

I get this error when the XML install script tries to run:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home/adminx/public_html/library/Waindigo/InstallUpgrade/Listener/TemplatePostRender.php on line 48

Try re-uploading the same XML. Let me know if you get the same error.

 

[The Sandman]

The above was the error when I tried to run the XML on the server. When I try to run the XML from the download on my desktop, I get:

Server Error

Same result with redownloaded XML.

 

[Jon W]

Strange. I can't replicate either error. Leave it with me...

I get this error when the XML install script tries to run:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home/adminx/public_html/library/Waindigo/InstallUpgrade/Listener/TemplatePostRender.php on line 48

This appears to be a XenForo 1.1 error. Is this correct?

 

[Jon W]

Same result with redownloaded XML.

Do you have any other add-on installer add-ons installed? (Now that's a tongue-twister!)

 

[The Sandman]

This appears to be a XenForo 1.1 error. Is this correct?

No, 1.2.4.

Do you have any other add-on installer add-ons installed? (Now that's a tongue-twister!)

Sinful Caesar sipped his snifter!

No, no other add-on installer installed.

 

[Jon W]

Red lorry, yellow lorry, red lorry, yellow lorry...

This is all very strange. Can you drop me a PM with your email address and I'll send an update that should hopefully fix this, although neither should really be errors in the first place.
