TYPO3 Core

Hi Oliver,
are you sure that this extensions are compatible with 6.1? I'm not using Tv or 6.1 atm so can't test it. There might be issue that extension is not compatible and can't be installed but no information message is presented.

Also in the mentioned issue reisntallation was needed as i messed up to much on my machine. There are only configuration parameters that need to be changed to make ZOP work with TYPO3 :)

I can install static_info_tables on another server (which is running the same TYPO3 version) just fine. If there was some problem, I would expect some sort of error message or something in the logs, but there simply isn't anything :(

Disabling DBAL resolved this issue.

We already had to remove it from LocalConfiguration during installation to even get the site up, but, apparently, it was re-enabled during or after the install process. And then it causes further problems.

I am a bit surprised that DBAL is considered to be stable now. I have never seen it cause anything but problems :(

I have the same issue with 6.1 and 6.1.7 on a current Kubuntu 13.10.
But no DBAL is installed. This looks like it appeared after going from 6.1 to 6.1.7.
Suddenly I can't install OR uninstall any extension, not even the Recycler.

The extension is entered in the LocalConfiguration.php but the icon remains gray and it is actually not installed.

There is also no Zen Optimizer installed on the system.

Oh yes, going back to 6.1 does not help either.
I don't know what else to try.

Hi Thomas,

can you enable all sorts of error and warning reporting on you system?
Please check webserver logs, system logs, TYPO3 log, ... then if something shows up.

It is simply impossible to have no error message at all, if you entered the extension manually to LocalConfiguration.php and it does not get loaded.

This is what I find in the error log:

It is a Kubuntu 13.10 and everything is installed on the local drive.
I have changed the option in the Install Tool and deleted the typo3temp/locks, nothing helped.
Before each try I cleaned up via Install Tool.
Here is the error log (sorry for the mess):

Thomas, can you please post your configuration for ['SYS']['systemLog']?

Sure :-)

To be sure a few lines more:

[SYS][systemLog] = file
[SYS][systemLogLevel] = 0
[SYS][enableDeprecationLog] = file
[SYS][maxFileNameLength] = 60

Ok next step.

Your configuration here is wrong.
You're missing the path to the log file.

Have a look into the Install Tool to see the correct syntax.

I tried this now:

[SYS][systemLog] = file,/home/hilburger/public_html/www2014.law-school.de/html/typo3conf/syslog.log,0

But the log is not used.
Instead I find this entry in /var/log/apache2/www.law-school.local.error.log

It seems that I'm blind. Sorry for that :-(

Hi I Have the same issue but on ubuntu 13.10. I checked the solution with syslog, but I thing it's not about this, I run debug and tried to find what could it be and I thing we must search In /typo3/sysext/extensionmanager/Classes/Utility/DependencyUtility.php. But can anyone tell me where in nested functions should I search, because I don't have too much time to examine this issue.

I'm running on xdebug.

Hi Peter,

what extension did you try to activate?
Do you also get an error message regarding a lock file?

I check this under ubuntu 12.04 on the same typo3 installation and I get this error to DependencyUtility.php but activating extensions works normally, so It's not related to this bug.

Maybe little help, where should I search for this ??

Ok so we can nail it down to a problem in (K)Ubuntu 13.10?

Is there any access restriction on folders (docroot downwards) in this OS release?

Yes it's only (K)Ubuntu 13.10

I run apache on my local user account so it's not on permissions.

I triad activate extensions manualy in localconfiguration.php and they works. So It's something in core.

Are you sure that Zend Optimizer isn't loaded?
My Kubuntu 13.10 seems to come with Apache 2.4, PHP 5.5.3 and Zend OPcache:

$ php -v
PHP 5.5.3-1ubuntu2.1 (cli) (built: Dec 12 2013 04:24:35) 
Copyright (c) 1997-2013 The PHP Group

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
     php_value opcache.revalidate_freq 0
</IfModule>

Hi

Yes it was problem with opcache. The above solution solved the problem. Now the extension can be installed properly.

I have the same Problem here,
but the fix won't work^^

Only difference is thast APC has been enabled on the machine.

@Markus: Did you already check with http://wiki.typo3.org/Opcode_Cache
