Phoca Forum

I've been successfully running Phoca Download on a Joomla 1.5 site and am now setting up a new web site in Joomla 2.5.2. I've installed Phoca Download 2.1.6 and followed the migration instructions to copy my data over to the new database. All my categories and files are shown in the back end of Phoca (in the new site), but when I set up a menu item for either List Of Categories (Categories View) or List of Files (Category View), all I get is a blank page with "Powered by Phoca Download" at the bottom.

Any idea what I've done wrong?

Thanks.

Hi, are all files and categories authorized? Do they have right language?

Yes, all files and categories are authorized and language = all. For some reason I'm now getting the dreaded 500 error message: 500 - View not found [name, type, prefix]: sections, html, phocadownloadView. I've read your article on this, and I can get plenty of messages onscreen when I set the Joomla 2.5.2 global config debug settings to on, but I don't understand any of it!

Found it! I'm using AceSEF. Turning off SEF for Phoca Download in the AceSEF component solved the problem. I got the idea from this article on solving a similar issue with ARTIO JoomSEF: http://zygy3.com/joomla/phoca-download- ... -not-found.

Hi, I have same problem like alankempster - nothing display in frontend after upgrade to j2.5. I dont have any other component instaled. Files are public, authorized, published and set all languages. In administrator section is all ok, I see all files, all categories, I can add or remove files.
Please help.

Hi, try to resave category and some file in admin (recheck the permissions there), be sure, e.g. "public" is selected when saving category, etc.

It works Thank you very much Jan. Problem was in all categories (public and registered) and files with public rights. When I recheck permissions again, it start working.
