I have notification about update VM 2.0.18 to 2.0.18a
Normally the language settings are kept during an update. At present I would suggest to the stable version 2.0.22 available for download from here:
http://virtuemart.net/
...but make a backup first - just in case something goes wrong.
Serbian language files are now available here (currently not 100% translated, but you can use them): http://virtuemart.net/community/translations
ok, i update (manuelly) VM, first core then aio...
VM is now 2.0.22
I delete all example products, and started to set new.
1. create category (not showing u after save)
2. create products, set pic, description, all... (after save not showing up)
3. multilanguage is checked
4. correct create menu and added VM category layout - nothing, again nothing to show
Where i mistake?
Before update VM i create category, manufacturer, product just fine, now i dont show hothing?
What i need to do?
Ty very much
Try to click on "Install or if necessary update tables" in VM Administration > Tools & Migration and then test if it works again.
Try it..nothing happened...
Cant create category, products, nothing.... :-[
Cause my shop is empty, maybe is better way to reinstall VM and doing clean install? But what about language, last time u setup for me and work perfect...
Did you install xampp on your PC last winter, so you can test Joomla 2.5.11 and VirtueMart 2.0.22 without the risk of destroying something?
Yes i m install on my home PC.

Then you could create a new database by typing
localhost into your browser and then use phpmyadmin to create a new database. Afterwards create a new folder in your xampp/htdocs folder and install a fresh Joomla 2.0.11 and VirtueMart 2.0.21b (the previous VM2 version) and test if that works.
Several users reported problems after updating to VM 2.0.22, which the team is investigating.
ok
What u think about backing to previously version of VM?
I dont understand, update some program is good, but when ppl working with web shop, big risk after upgrade is lose everything.... how is fixed that?
How much life time is for one version VM, example 2.0.18a? That is good version, worked like charm...is it bad keep that version? And why?
How user can be safe working in older version, or how user be safe after upgrade to new version?
Of course you can still use VM 2.0.18a. Each new version has bug fixes and maybe some new features. If you are not affected by the existing bugs and don't need the new features, the old version might be usable for another year or two. The problem with that is, the longer you wait with updates, the more difficult it becomes to update. For example, an update from 2.0.18 to 2.0.20 probably is a small step that works without problems. But if you would try to update 2.0.18 to 2.2.0 (not available yet) or later, some parts of the update might not work correctly, because to many things have changed.
If you are happy with 2.0.18a, you can still use it. The next BIG upgrade then might be switching your website to Joomla 3.5 and VM 2.2 next year.
Hi JJK
I back VM to version 2.0.18a and language pack too
In CP of VM i see category, products, etc... but in frontend i dont see nothing?!
Probably problem now with table, or data base....can u give me solution how to fix that now?
Forget to write here...
Fixed this problem with restoring my database.
Installed XAMPP, step by step and site now is on my local machine. Working ok, except:
If i try click to 'manage extension' show up next error --> Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in C:\xampp\htdocs\mojsajt\libraries\joomla\string\string.php on line 399
I want to delete VM and my language, then test new VM (upgrade do not work in local host) with new language, in this case i read for multiple language best VM is 2.0.22, and i test that, then SR language for this version.
Where is problem with this error?
Can i delete VM/AIO and language another way from Joomla?
P.S. I downloaded VM 2.0.22 and try to install looking this tutorial --> http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/30-installation-migration-upgrade-vm-2/80-installation-of-virtuemart-2Install%20first%20the%20core,%20then%20the%20aio!, nothing happenned, just white screen...maybe the problem is XAMPP and localhost??
Ty
Edit:
I have successfully instaled latest VM 2.0.24C but only with options Install from URL now i have latest version, interested is, work fine, in frontend my products showing ok (in serbian language) except page where i have 10+ products (error is only where i have a lot products, and more page then just one), then i have error (screenshot), in backend some stuff is in english veersion, but, that is not big problem right now.
Next, i cant now install AIO for VM 2.0.24C (post before i write about that) and i cant find language translation for VM 2.0.24C for my language (never mind for uncomplete translate). Question is: how can install AIO now (any possible that AIO have URL then i install in same way like VM), and about language files.
Ty very much

If you get timeout errors during installation of Joomla/VM2 using XAMPP, have a look at Site > Sytem Information > PHP Information and search for a line similar to this: 'Loaded Configuration File C:\xampp\php\php.ini'.
Then go to that php.ini file, open it with an editor like Notepad and search for 'max_execution_time'. It might be set to "30". If so, increase it to 90 (should be sufficient) or 120. You can also check the 'mamory_limit' a few lines below that. Set it to 128M. Save the file.
Afterwards, try to install the com_virtuemart.2.0.24c_ext_aio.zip with the Joomla installer again. Next go to http://virtuemart.net/community/translations and download the language packs for the VM2 core and for the payment plugins and install the.
Sometimes after the installation of VM2 updates it is a good idea to go 'Tools & Migration' and click on 'Install or if necessary update tables.
The error messages in your screenshots seem to be a problem with your template. Perhaps it needs to be updated to work with the latest VM2 version. Check if the error messages go away if you temporarily switch to one of the Joomla default templates.
Ty JJK, what i do:
1. I have 2 php.ini file:
- php.ini - development
- php.ini - production
I dont know which file i can open to edit?
2. I try default template and no errors Joerge. My template is problem! :( How i can update my template to support VM2?
About memory and execution time --> not try yet this solution, i working on that. Ty m8 for helping me.
My PHP version is: 5.4.19, Aug 21 2013 build date,

Ty JJK, what i do:
1. I have 2 php.ini file:
- php.ini - development
- php.ini - production
Edit 'php.ini', not 'php.ini-development' or php.ini-production. If you don't see 'php.ini', but maybe just 'php', you probably have to change some settings in your Windows folder options, like 'Show hidden files and folders' and/or disable 'Hide extensions for known file types'.
Concerning your template - you will have to ask your template provider if he has an update available which works with latest VM2.
Ok JJK i find, only PHP file is php.ini.
Set execution time to 120 and i have another error again (screenshot 1). About memory_limit --> default is 128M
Put here screenshot (2) with my php.ini configuration.

Try to install the .zip files instead of the .tar.gz files. XAMPP often doesn't handle the tar.gz files.
Sorry, that picture is from yesterday when i try to install 2.0.22a
Same error JJK with .zip files
Impossible to find installation package....and in red write --> error with adding to server
[attachment cleanup by admin]
check your 'upload_max_filesize' in the php.ini file. If it is set to 2m, increase it to a higher value, for example 4m. (In xampp I've set mine to 128m)
Its again same error show up... only what i see is too faster loading, no more waiting for localhost....i dont know what to do! ???
Maybe i reinstall xampp?
When install xampp i install service only for Apache, MySQL and FilleZilla, no Tomcat and Mercury.
I try to install another plugin or module, work ok...just AIO cant and VM2.
SS with settings of upload_size

When starting xampp, do NOT start Apache and MySQL as a service. That will probably create a lot of problems. If you change php.ini, you need to stop and restart Apache. Otherwise you are still using the old settings.
You are a king my friend ;D
When i shut down service for Apache and MySQL, everything working now in Joomla. Install AIO without any errors.
Thank you very much Joerge.
Now i have in local, J 2.5.13, VM 2.0.24c + AIO, serbian language is old, for version 2.0.18, but interested is next. Working VM2 with that language ok, some stuff not translate, like new options about Category/Home feed settings, in Tab Shop i have Invoices and Shopper information - that not translated, but that is only and not seem to be bad right now.
One more problem is left, that is about template update. I send email to provider of this template, i will wait couple of days for feedback. Do u have any more sugestion for this Joerge?
What u think, maybe in local and live is difference, maybe PHP pagination errors not showing in live site?
Joerge, i do it next..is it ok?
1: Go to Global Configuration.
2: Click on Server.
3: Set Error Reporting to none.
Now i dont have anymore PHP errors with more then one pages of products.
