Problem when installing Joomlastat
I installed the com_joomlastat_v221.zip on my Joomla 1.5.2 installation at http://www.kent-country.info and the installation appeared to go OK. I then installed bot_jstats_activate1.2.zip.
Problem is when I the activated the 'bot' the system immediately locked everyone out with a simple "Restricted access" message. This happens both in the 'domain' mode and the 'administration' mode.
I now find myself locked out of a development site that was due to go live on Tuesday.......
The only access I currently have to this site is FTP...
How can I recover?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Re: Problem when installing Joomlastat
Use PHPMyAdmin to access your MySQL database.
Navigate to jos_plugins (change jos_ for whatever you replaced the prefix with)
Select Browse
Scroll down the list of Plugins until you identify the bot_jstats...
click the Pencil/edit icon to open the item
Locate the field variable Enable and change the 1 that is displayed to 0
Click Go to save your change
Return to your J! site and try getting in to the Administrator
If all is ok I would suggest checking whether this is a 1.5 Native or Legacy Plugin before starting again.

Re: Problem when installing Joomlastat
Many thanks for your reply. I guessed that there was a 'simple' answer.
The extension is a 1.5 legacy, but I believe there is a 1.5 Native version in Alpha test.
Many Thanks that saved me a couple of weeks work...

Re: Problem when installing Joomlastat
Well you can use it if it Legacy just enable the Legacy Plugin first before enabling the Joomlastats Plugin again. If you had already done this when the problem occurred then clearly you will have to wait
If that has resolved your issue please edit your first post and enable the green circle and tick Post Icon just to show others it is resolved.
Thanks
Andy

Re: Problem when installing Joomlastat
Humvee,
Thanks for writing out those instructions. I had this exact same issue but nobody had answered my post regarding it, so thankfully I found this post. I had this problem once before and rebuilt the site hoping it was just a glitch when I activated the bot. Unfortunately the same issue occurred and I didn't want to install a third time...
Until now, I had never known how to use PHPMyAdmin to do what you outlined - that was really helpful and worked perfectly.
I do want to say that I enabled legacy prior to installing the bot and the problem occurred. No idea why but I believe it's plugin/bot issue. Using the mod extension instead may work, which I will try.

Re: Problem when installing Joomlastat
For those like me too stupid to install a whole application to do this..
Then go and remove the bot ....
I'll try the module and see how it works
edits:
OK, so I de-installed the bot then installed the module for activtion and no problems (yet)
Code: Select all
mysql --user=youruser --password=yourpass yourdbname
update jos_plugins set published=0 where element="bot_jstats_activate";

Re: Problem when installing Joomlastat
If you are using mySQL Query Browser you could run the following as well, just don't forget to put in you own database name:
UPDATE yourdatabasename.jos_plugins
SET published = 0
WHERE name = "Activate JoomlaStats";

UPDATE yourdatabasename.jos_plugins
SET published = 0
WHERE name = "Activate JoomlaStats";

Re: Problem when installing Joomlastat
First of all, sorry for my english :\
Thanks to those people who arrived at a solution. My site start working again. All is working as well as before installing JS, but i can't access to plugins manager. I have same error "Rescricted access" when i try to do this. Jstats_activate bot already deinstalled. JStats component deinstalled too.
Please help me to recover admin access to Plugins manager . I think this is database problem...
