Title: Update and/or language pack broke everything.. how to fix?
Post by: siljest on August 31, 2013, 16:33:28 PM
Hi guys.. I am a tooootal noob so please be nice  :-[

I did two things before i reloaded my page to check if something had changed. I updated Joomla through administration (been ages since i was there to check). And I also installed a language pack.

When I go to

-> Components -> Virtuemart

It says:
Joomla!
404 - An error has occurred.
Component not found


When I go to my page it says:


Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/negledek/public_html/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/helpers/config.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php53/pear') in /home/negledek/public_html/components/com_virtuemart/virtuemart.php on line 24



No idea what this means... Can you help?  :-\

Sorry I was a bit stressed out and not thinking as I posted that. And as a noob I didn't think about this automatically being relevant, sorry about that.

ok so here are my details:
Virtuemart version 2.0.22b
Joomla! version, 2.5.14. 
PHP Version 5.3.27

Probably broken installation of VM. Maybe reinstall it?

Did you change the Joomla front end language? If so have you set up a main menu item to VM using that language?  You may need to load the same language in VM as well.  http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?board=129.0

I suggest to download the latest package and todo a normal install OVER the old one. Do not reinstall. Reinstall is evil. Do an update!
