Fatal error when updating from Symphony 2.6.9

[mprofitlich]

I updated Symphony CMS to 2.7.0 and switched to PHP 7. When updating the multilingual text box field, I get a fatal error:

Symphony Fatal Error: Call to undefined method Extension_TextBoxField::updateHasUniqueKey()

An error occurred in /var/www/vhosts/profitlich.ch/httpdocs/extensions/multilingual_field/extension.driver.php around line 141
136 if (!$textboxExt->updateHasColumn('handle_unique', self::FIELD_TABLE)) {
137 $textboxExt->updateAddColumn('handle_unique', "ENUM('yes', 'no') NOT NULL DEFAULT 'yes' AFTER `text_handle`", self::FIELD_TABLE);
138 }
139
140 // add field_id unique key
141 if ($textboxExt->updateHasColumn('field_id', self::FIELD_TABLE) && !$textboxExt->updateHasUniqueKey('field_id', self::FIELD_TABLE)) {
142 $textboxExt->updateAddUniqueKey('field_id', self::FIELD_TABLE);
143 }
144

Which version of the Textbox extension ? Can you try updating the Textbox first ?

[mprofitlich]

I use textbox 2.3.3 – and I now realised that I was checking in outdated repository: https://github.com/psychoticmeow/textboxfield is outdated https://github.com/symphonists/textboxfield is new I guess brendo should close this repository or at least set a link to the new one.

After I installed the new textbox extension, the multilingual textbox allowed to be installed as well. Thank you, nitriques!

[nitriques]

I guess brendo should close this repository

It is not Brendo's, it is Rowan ;)

or at least set a link to the new one.

Where is the bad link ? I though I updated them. Anyways, I'll fix it if you can tell me. Thanks!

Hello nitriques

Here's how I got it wrong: I had version 2.3.3 of text box installed. Its github link in the backend (page extension) points to https://github.com/rowan-lewis/textboxfield

This did not confuse me but I found out while answering your question: On the getsymphony page (download/extensions) is a link to another version of text box. http://www.getsymphony.com/download/extensions/?query=text+box. Via this page it points at the same outdated repository of Rowan but to a tree 2.2.

Something I do not understand: I http://www.getsymphony.com/download/extensions still in use or has it been replaced by http://symphonyextensions.com? I feel the core team very well knows about those things but from my outsider position it is confusing. If symphonyextensions.com replaces the old list, I suggest to bring the list offline and to just place a link to symphonyextensions.com.

Thanks and best regards

@mprofitl thanks for the feedback. I've update the url here: http://www.getsymphony.com/download/extensions/view/21137/

Maintaining this is a real pain and hard to do!

Something I do not understand: I http://www.getsymphony.com/download/extensions still in use or has it been replaced by http://symphonyextensions.com?

Kind of. But that move has never been made official, expect the two lines on http://www.getsymphony.com/download/extensions/

There is also a community ran website that collects extensions informations directly from github! Give it a try!

But I think the warning should be bigger ???

[mprofitlich]

Thanks for explaining, nitriques!

Why those two places? Are there any extensions on the getsymphony.com site that are not on Github? I found some (randomly opening them) that have no link to anywhere and no files but I did not find any that have their files directly on getsymphony.com, all files seem to be on Githib anyway.

Why not take the download/extensions pages offline? And why isn't symphonyextensions.com part of getsymphony.com? I know, there is always plenty of good reasons… For easy use however there should be just one place, I believe.

If I can help (read as work) towards a simplification, I will be happy to give a hand. I have profited a lot from other peoples' work and help, it would be nice to pay back.

Are there any extensions on the getsymphony.com site that are not on Github

Yes, but they are old.

Why not take the download/extensions pages offline?

A lot of people still wants them as archives.

And why isn't symphonyextensions.com part of getsymphony.com?

Because symphonyextensions.com was created and run by another member of the community.

If I can help (read as work) towards a simplification,
