Installation Errors

AcyMailing installs files in the following folders. Please first make sure those folders are writeable before trying to install AcyMailing :

  • Joomla / Administrator / Components
  • Joomla / Components
  • Joomla / Modules
  • Joomla / Plugins
  • Joomla / Plugins / User
  • Joomla / Plugins / System
  • Joomla / Language / en-GB
  • Joomla / tmp

 

Blank page

A blank page does not help us to determine what could be the problem so if you get a blank page (an entire white screen without anything written on it), please make sure that your PHP configuration enables you to see errors and if not, edit your php.ini file and search for the string parameter display_errors.
This parameter should be turned On : display_errors = On.
If it's not the case, please edit your php.ini file, modify this line, save your file and then restart your server and try again to install AcyMailing. You should not see a blank screen anymore and the error message will help us a lot to fix the problem.

If you can not see any error, please try to install AcyMailing via FTP, it solves more than half of the installlation issues.

Install via FTP

If you have difficulties to install AcyMailing, you may want to try to install it via FTP.
This way, Joomla won't have to upload the AcyMailing package on your website so the installation will be much faster.

  • Extract your AcyMailing package in a folder called "acymailing" on your own computer.
  • Open your FTP software (FileZilla for example), connect to your website and upload the folder "acymailing" in the temporary folder of your website : /tmp/
  • Go to your Joomla Installer manager on your website backend and specify the path of your folder in the input "Install from Directory" : "\home\...\tmp\acymailing".
  • Click on the button "Install"... the install process should be much faster and will enable you to successfully install AcyMailing.
