Edit events not working

[tmcwebmaster]

The editing of events has stopped working. Clicking on Modify from the front end or clicking on an event in the back end only produces a simple text message. Here is an example from the back end;

"You are editing an event.
If you change the date settings for this event and save then it will generate a new set of repetitions and delete all existing repeats and exceptions."

This is an example from the front end;

" Save
Apply
Cancel

Edit Event
You are editing an event.
If you change the date settings for this event and save then it will generate a new set of repetitions and delete all existing repeats and exceptions."

This only happens on one site. My other site is fine, so I don't think it is a browser issue.

Here is the information for support forum;

Code: Select all

Joomla : 2.5.8
component_com_jevents : 2.2.8
module_mod_jevents_cal : 2.2.8
module_mod_jevents_latest : 2.2.5
module_mod_jevents_legend : 2.0.2


Do you have any ideas?

Hello David,

does it work ok on the Administrator side?

Do you get any JavaScript messages?

Hi Tony,

No, I am the administrator and it is the same whether I log and try to edit an event in from the admin area or from the front.

I don't get any errors in Debug but Firebug gives me the following message;

"The character encoding of the HTML document was not declared. The document will render with garbled text in some browser configurations if the document contains characters from outside the US-ASCII range. The character encoding of the page must to be declared in the document or in the transfer protocol."

Does that tell you anything?

David

From the pink section above -

Enable Joomla! Maximum Error Reporting and view the page again, you should now have a more detailed error which will help us to resolve you issue quickly.

I'm sorry but I have maximum reporting on and I am not getting any information when I try to edit an event. All that happens is I get a white page with the message I have shown above, no formatting, nothing - just the message.

Hi David,

Does this happen in Chrome and Internet Explorer?

Can you check your php.ini for a memory_limit?

if unsure, just create a info.php file in your joomla root containing:

Code: Select all

<?php phpinfo(); ?>


How much is it? Can you check if you have an error file in your Joomla! Directory? does it say anything?

Regards
Tony

Hi Tony,

Yes, this happens in all browsers. In fact, it was notifed to me by our club diary web editor who was suddenly faced with this problem, so it is not just me. I also have jevents on other sites and it does not occur on them.

The php.ini file contains a single line of code "upload_max_filesize = 14M post_max_size = 14M"

I have nowo created an info.php file with your line of code but with no better effect.

There is no error.log in the root directory.

Let me know if you want to see this for yourself and, if you do, please send me a direct email address for me to send you access details.

Regards,
David

Hello David,

We need the memory_limit = 14M;

I am suspecting you need to increase it? see:

https://my.bluehost.com/cgi/help/php-memory

It might help you.

Sorry again but "memory_limit" is 32M in PHP Configuration, both local and master values.

2 things to check.
1. When you get the partial page load view the web page source - the error message could be in a script section that isn't displayed on the screen. If there is nothing there then
2. Check your server error logs (not the Joomla logs) for error messages.
