Hi.. I'm loving Frog so far... one problem though: none of the plugins are listed in the Administration section of Frog.

I'd like to be able to turn on/off certain plugins. Any idea what is going on? There are no errors in my logfile. Everything seems to be working without any problems, it is just the plugins that won't show in the Administration section.

Damn... forgot to mention I'm using the latest Subversion version of Frog.

  • What kind of system are you on?
  • Can you confirm you have the plugins in the {root}/frog/plugins directory?

Very odd!

My Frog is running on:

  • Linux Fedora
  • PHP 5.0.4
  • MySQL 4.1.20

The plugins are right where they should be and everthing seems to be working without any problem... EXCEPT for the Administration page. Truly strang... it seems to get cut off just before it starts to list the actual plugins.

Hmmm... damn... I just noticed... I'm also not seeing the Plugins and Settings tabs on the Administration screen. :-(

maybe you have some data missing in your database

like a setting table or someting like that ... or maybe just the "plugins" setting

try to insert this in your setting table:

insert into setting (name, value) values ('plugins', 'a:5:{s:7:"textile";i:1;s:8:"markdown";i:1;s:7:"archive";i:1;s:14:"page_not_found";i:1;s:12:"file_manager";i:1;}')

Unfortunately... these settings are present... I've made a screenshot available at <http://www.vanderkleijn.net/public/images/frog_admin_problem.png>

I've got the following tables:

  • frog_comment
  • frog_layout
  • frog_page
  • frog_page_part
  • frog_page_tag
  • frog_permission
  • frog_setting
  • frog_snippet
  • frog_tag
  • frog_user
  • frog_user_permission

frog_setting contains the following entries - admin_title Administration area - language en - theme default - enable_comment 1 - auto_approve_comment 1 - default_status_id 1 - default_filter_id 1 - plugins a:5:{s:7:"textile";i:1;s:8:"markdown";i:1;s:7:"archive";i:1;s:14:"page_not_found";i:1;s:12:"file_manager";i:1;}

set debug to true in the config.php file, then check the html source of this page (administration tab) ...

it have to display a error somewhere, because the page is not rendered completly ( no admin menu at the top right )

if there is nothing check in your php.ini file to make sure you have display_error to "on"

Ha! Got it... turning on the display_error worked. I'm not using PDO because my host doesn't support it.. Turns out that the sqlite3 plugin was somehow trying to do something with PDO... I removed the sqlite3 plugin directory from the system and now the entire admin section work!

Thanks! :-)
