Features module - automated install fails

I have the same problem. I would like to be able have these settings work from my install profile feature but it keeps on getting overridden. Any one have any insite? I am currently trying this on drupal 7.

Hey circuscowboy,

My solution to use features to setup WYSIWYG functionality during install came with the patch (#31) in this queue: #1060846: Exportables and Features support for 6.x. Mind you, this is for the wysiwyg module, I had to abandon the Ckeditor module. However, I do use ckeditor via the wysiwyg module. Also, the patch is for drupal 6 and I haven't tested #624018: Exportables and Features support for WYSIWYG 7.x which is for D7 to see if that one works on install too. The latter off course is the one you want.

In my case, I must add, I needed to export my wysiwyg settings to a separate feature. Including the code in features that also perform other tasks made it fail to setup wysiwyg.

Hope this helps!

Hi,
I think that the problem you have is due to the problem corrected by the attched patch.
The function to get the defaults is called "directly" instead of calling the features_get_default() function. The call to module_invoke was failing because the module containing the function that returns the default was not included before invoking it.

Hope it helps,
Best regards,
Tarch.

@Tarch thank you for patch.

The source of the problem is that the module 'ckeditor' is a 'faux-exportables' module (as defined in API.txt of the features modules), meaning that the default features stored in code are also being stored in the database. (That is at least what ckeditor_profile_features_revert(), which writes on DB, implies).

To handle faux-exportables, there is another hook that is needed to be implemented: hook_features_rebuild().

So the following patch allows the import to work:

 }
 
 /**
+ * Implementation of hook_features_rebuild()
+ */
+function ckeditor_profile_features_rebuild($module) {
+  ckeditor_profile_features_revert($module);
+}
+
+/**
  * Implementation of hook_features_revert()
  */
 function ckeditor_profile_features_revert($module) {

EDIT: That is a Drupal 7 patch.

(Hopefully not highjacking the D6 patch... I'll create a separate report if so).

@ndeschildre please create new topic with your patch and description. I change this ticket back to 6.x version.

You're fast, I like it :)
