Title: Coppermine template error: Failed to find block 'contact'
Post by: PandoradeRomanus on June 22, 2010, 05:25:01 am
I have Coppermine installed in 2 places on my domain, 2 different locations. after a recent upgrade, I began getting an error on the main coppermine install located at http://www.luridmusestudios.com/photography/
the second install is fine and upgraded without issue. I have attempted to restore a backup of the /photography/ coppermine but the error continues to be there.
how do I repair this error?
Thank you for your time and attention to this,
Pandora

At a quick first glance, I would guess you are using a theme designed for version 1.4.x with your updated 1.5.6 installation. If this is indeed the case, you'll need to update your custom theme(s) (http://www.luridmusestudios.com/photography/docs/en/theme_upgrade_14x-15x.htm) (or any other 1.4.x theme) by following the instructions in your documentation.

@PandoradeRomanus: you said that this happened after an upgrade. Subsequently, you need to make sure that you have done as suggested per upgrade instructions in the docs: http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/upgrading.htm
Among the steps needed to perform you need to upgrade any theme from an older coppermine version, as onthepike suggested. Theme upgrade instructions can be found in http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/theme_upgrade_14x-15x.htm
As you have an upgrade issue, you should have posted in the corresponding board. Moving accordingly.

Simple scripts installed this for me and upgraded it as well.
I have looked at the above documentation, checked my file(s) and they are already updated how they should be, I suspect by Simple scripts when it upgraded coppermine itself.
I was using a standard theme not a customized one. my customized theme is on the working coppermine.
I have copied the themes from the working copy of coppermine to the non-working version, no change.
as previously stated I went and attempted to use my backup version of coppermine, and its not working now either.
is it possible this is because Coppermine is installed in 2 different directories (because its 2 different websites) and it doesnt like it?

I have fixed the error by completely deleting the coppermine theme folder from the non-working directory and copying the theme folder from the working directory into it. Problem resolved.
Thank you.

Simple scripts installed this for me and upgraded it as well.
Auto-installers suck and go completely and utterly unsupported. Read up http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/auto-installers.htm

Problem resolved.
