Language selection Joomfish beta error

Instead of having a language selector on my frontend, I get this error message :
Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /mounted-storage/home5/sub002/sc12399-BPDH/www-ODP/modules/mod_jflanguageselection.php on line 52

Can you please report it to:
http://forge.joomla.org/sf/tracker/do/l ... sh/tracker

with information about PHP Version, MySQL version, platform and Joomla! Version

This has been fixed in Subversion. In the meantime there is an easy fix see :

move the following files from administrator\components\com_joomfish\mambots\system

jfdatabase.systembot.xml
jfdatabase.systembot.php

to the mambots/system dir

p.s. Thanks to John Cox for finding the cause of this problem.

Great ! Thanks.
I was not sure if it was my mistake or not so I didn't want to report directly this in the tracker.

Hi, I downloaded today (29-march) version 1.7 beta.....have installed Joomla 1.0.8.

When I publish the module I get the:
Call to a member function on a non-object in /.../public_html/j/modules/mod_jflanguageselection.php on line 52

in that file, the 52 line is:
$langActive = $_JOOMFISH_MANAGER->getActiveLanguages();

is it compatible with 1.0.8??
Thanks!!

PHP 4.3.11
mambot is published (it was by default)...

@diegolaz

You are using beta2 I assume.

In the adminstrator when you configure Joomfish does it look like this (in particular the checks on component/module/mambot)?

nop, i didn't have mamblefish installed nor any other joomfish version.
my image looks a bit strange...

Geraint · **Posted:** Thu Mar 30, 2006 1:15 pm

The odd look is caused by the fact that your language file for joomfish doesn't have all the required translations - it looks off but doesn't cause any problems.

You chopped off the right hand side of the image (the most important bit I'm afraid) - can you upload a picture of that.

Thanks

Mystery solved? I suspect you downloaded the old beta. Are you sure you downloaded this file:

http://forge.joomla.org/sf/go/projects. ... 1_7_beta_2

The link in Alex' first message about beta2 actually points to the old beta by default.

Thanks...... I cut the image because that was it....the wasn't anything else.
I'll try the link you just sent to me, I think that was the problem. I thought I had the latest version because I went throw joomla extensions to the joomfish extension site and got http://forge.joomla.org/sf/frs/do/viewR ... m_fish_1_7
because it was the only file there... but I think it was not beta2....
Thanks!! i'll try it now

Hi, I am a little out of topic but I get this red indication with beta 2, like on your snapshot : "MambelFish installation - old installation not upgraded". Maybe I installed Mambelfish in the past (I am not sure, I don't remember), however I am sure I never used it. So how can I clear this message "MambelFish installation - old installation not upgraded" ?
I have to say that I am using Joomfish starting with beta 1 and I don't want to loose what I did so far ! :-)

Beta versions are not supposed to be used on production sites.
Ignore the upgrade message, it will be fixed in next version.

but i got the problem, can not switch between my installed languages.

@seenxu: Can you be more specific. What did you do, what is happening etc. Did you put ISO code on each language?

this problem had been solved, I have to enter an ISO shortcut for each language, z.b germany-de, chinese-zh.

anyway, thx for your attention! :laugh:

I am having the same problem with Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /cms/modules/mod_jflanguageselection.php on line 52. I am using beta2. The files:

jfdatabase.systembot.xml
jfdatabase.systembot.php

are in the correct directory -> mambots/system.

Mambelfish was initially installed, then I upgraded to Joomfish (not beta2), then I read the post and figured that beta2 would fix it. I installed beta2 and this did not solve the error issue.

Could it be something with the old mambelfish install. I noticed that mambelfish had some entries in the index.php file, which I commented out.

Any help would be good
