issue trying to install Component Builder v5.0.3 for Joomla 5

[sergec68]

I am trying to install Component Builder v5.0.3 for Joomla 5 on my local website (Mamp 7.1.2) but i get this error screen :

Warning: max_input_vars configuration should be at least 7000 but is currently 1000. Too few max_input_vars may result in lost data during processing complex forms, which can lead to incomplete configurations and operational issues.
JInstaller: :Install: Error SQL Duplicate entry '25' for key 'joomla_componentbuilder_joomla_component.PRIMARY'
Extension installation stopped.
Package Install: There was an error installing an extension: joomla__Component-Builder__5.x.zip

The max_input_vars in my php.ini is set to 7000

Can you please help.

The semi-colon indicates that is a comment
Search the php.ini to see if it is listed further down without a semi-colon

Thank you.

I removed the semi-colon, but I still get the following error:

"JInstaller: :Install: Error SQL Duplicate entry '25' for key 'joomla_componentbuilder_joomla_component.PRIMARY'
Extension installation stopped.
Package Install: There was an error installing an extension: joomla__Component-Builder__5.x.zip"

Your installation finished partway through. You need to recover by using your backup then install the extension again.

Are you sure you edited the correct php.ini file? I do not know MAMP at all but for example Wampserver has at least two active php.ini files, one for the CLI environment and the other one for the Apache web server.

Go to System - Information - System Information - PHP Information and find the path to the php.ini file from the line 'Loaded Configuration File'.

how to I recover my backup?

JInstaller: :Install: Error SQL Duplicate entry '25' for key 'joomla_componentbuilder_joomla_component.PRIMARY'

Did this error seem to originate from the _extensions table? It is possible to list the indexes by using the command 'SHOW INDEXES FROM example_extensions' (replace 'example' with your table prefix).

FWIW, I installed Component Builder v 5.0.3 in Joomla 5.2.0 using Wampserver 3.3.6. The installation displayed warnings about upload_max_filesize, upload_max_filesize, max_input_vars and memory_limit, but was completed successfully. There were no errors from duplicate entries of index keys.

how to I recover my backup?

That depends on how you created the backup and whether or not you are using wamp. If you give us those details we can tell you how to restore your backup.

i was finally able to install the latest version of joomla component builder, and create a component, but when I try to coompile it I get the following error:

You do not have a global power plugin setup, so the powers plugin autoloader could not be added.
Dynamic folder(s) were detected.
A method (moveFolders) was added to the install ComponentnameInstallerScript.php of this package to insure that the folder(s) are copied into the correct place when this component is installed!

I think I got it now. in admin view settings of my component, i needed to disable import/export data
