Hope this helps someone

For those experiencing this/these error(s) after activating the Phoca Download plugin on Jooma 3.x,
1

Warning: require_once(/www/siteDScomponentsDScom_phocadownloadDShelpersDSroute.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /www/site/plugins/content/phocadownload/phocadownload.php on line 16

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/www/siteDScomponentsDScom_phocadownloadDShelpersDSroute.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php53/lib/php') in /www/site/plugins/content/phocadownload/phocadownload.php on line 16

The solution is adding this line

Code: Select all

if(!defined('DS')) define('DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);

on file site/plugins/content/phocadownload/phocadownload.php most preferably at the top.
Seems to have been omitted on this version 3.0 of Phoca download.

Download the Phoca donwload component version 2.1.9, copy files route.php, phocadownloadlayout.php and phocadownload.php from 'com_phocadownload_v2.1.9/site/helpers' and paste them on the helpers folder of the version 3.0 (front-end) component.

Download the Phoca donwload component version 2.1.9, copy file phocadownload.php from 'com_phocadownload_v2.1.9/helpers' and paste it on the helpers folder of the version 3.0 component that is under /administrator.

That fixed my issues.

Thanks a lot! I was having this exact problem.

After this fix, i stumbled on a new error. When using the component to display a category view, some class were already defined. I solved it by making the class definition in the helpers directory conditional:

if (!class_exists('PhocaDownloadLayout')) {
(here goes the definition of the class)
}

I know this is not very good programming, but it might help until the plugin is fixed properly.
