Installation Error when installing on Windows XP #4

Open marcric opened 15 years ago

marcric commented 15 years ago

I have tried the two installations alternatives:

The "using a template" one returns a "non git repository" error.

And the "manually" alternative, give me the same error already reported by Shree in the Google discussion group.

http://groups.google.com/group/adva-cms/browse_thread/thread/42361bc4373a5e52

Apparently the installation procedure is not properly tested...

Unfortunately I'm a newbie in Rails, and don't know how to help.

I'm getting this error as well. Has any work around been discovered yet?

The error message "unknown file type: ../adva/engines/adva_activity" is displayed because this relative path doesn't resolves to a valid path.

Looking at the adva_cms/lib/tasks/adva_cms.rake shows that the source method on line 160 suppose the relative path of the source packages at ../adva. This seems broken (even on Mac?) because the rake task is invoked from RAILS_ROOT and there's no RAILS_ROOT/../adva directory!

So a simple workaround is to cd to vendor/plugins and to invoke rake adva:install:core from there (which will be a root that the relative path will be happy with).
