Thanks for the cool distro! I'm anxious to try it out, but I've run into the following problem.

Installation environment:
Panopoly 7.x-1.0-beta3
Linux (Ubuntu)
Apache
MySQL

Steps to reproduce:

1) Install Panopoly files

2) Change /sites directory and subdirectories to be writable (hack because I'm on localhost and don't have ftp or SSH configured)

3) Choose a Panopoly App to install such as Panopoly Core or Demo

4) System installs the App but does not enable

5) Click on "Enable App"

6) Still not enabled

Expected result: App should be enabled

No error message. System thinks install was successful (green message). There are no error messages in the log.

Kristen Pol,

3) Choose a Panopoly App to install such as Panopoly Core or Demo

In addition at this step, try to install/select panopoly_magic and panopoly_widgets, as they seem to be dependencies. However, they could be greyed-out anyway, and selected - not certain.

Try it out :-).

Peace Easy,

Thanks for the quick response. I tried installing both of those and get this error:

==

Downloading updates failed:

    Archivers can only operate on local files: temporary://update-cache-dca14d6d/panopoly_magic-7.x-1.0-beta3.tar.gz not supported

==

I've attached a screenshot. I verified that I am logged in.

I am hoping to use Panopoly for a new project that is starting this week so I'm anxious for it to work ;)

Had something similiar to this happen, yesterday!

I'm not sure if it's the best method for the solution, but I went into my /tmp folder on my local server and $ sudo rm update-*. Then, attempted again.

I can't be certain it is the exact same issue, but worth giving a shot.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the fast response! The removing of the tmp files did the trick for that error... but I find that I can install Widgets and Magic but not enable them either :(

I have figured it out! The installation process wasn't actually completely finished... it had stalled on the ftp stuff (which I didn't have so I went on to just hacking it by making /sites writable). Upon running install.php *again*, it was able to finish up its business and now things are working as expected. I was able to enable the Users app with no issues.

Thanks for your help!!!

Thanks guys, I had the same problem, stalling on FTP stage, on my localhost machine.

sudo chmod -R 777 sites/ fixed it, maybe it should be included somewhere during the installation process?
