Fatal error with Jan27 nightly build

After many previous unsuccessful attempts, I just downloaded and successfully installed the January 27 nightly build on my 1.5 site.  The component and all the modules installed without any problems.  However, I couldn't get msproductsnap or virtumart_searchbot to install.

When I tried to access my site front-end after the installation, I got this error message:

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/(mysite)/components/com_virtuemart/virtuemart_parser.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /(mysite)/modules/mod_virtuemart/mod_virtuemart.php on line 25

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I've solved the fatal error.

Apparently the Joomla 1.5 extension installer did not unpack the admin_files.tar.gz and frontend_files.tar.gz files.  It simply copied the two tar.gz files to their respective directories.  Once I extracted and copied the individual files it worked.

I'm running:
- Joomla 1.5 Stable
- msql Ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.16
- PHP 4.4.1
- FreeBSD 4.11 stable

Hope that helps.

By the way, I still couldn't get mosproductsnap or virtuemart.searchbot to install.  I tried ftping the two php files to their respective directories, but they don't show up in Joomla. 

Are these important, and if so, are there any suggestions for getting them installed?

Thanks.

mosproductsnap and virtuemart.searchbot required legacy plugin to be enabled (will change for stable release).

However there is a native Joomla 1.5 search plugin but is not bundled with the installation package it is a separate download see topic http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=31381.0 it is titled 'Search plugin for Joomla 1.5'

Thanks, I'll check that out.

FYI, I do have legacy enabled.

Hi,

I ran into the same error when installing SearchBot.
Failed opening required '' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php') in /home/content/n/a/n/nanqiyou/html/administrator/components/com_cpanel/admin.cpanel.php on line 17

I enabled legacy from system plugin.  I am using the latest Virtuemart 1.0.14 or something like that in php 5.
What are searchbot for anyway?  I did install search module from within virtuemart.  Also, is Mambot ProductSnapshot necessary to display thumbnail images of product in shopping cart?  What is it for?

Thanks.

Actually, I ran into this error message:
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php') in /home/content/n/a/n/nanqiyou/html/administrator/components/com_cpanel/admin.cpanel.php on line 17

when I was trying to enable legacy from system plugin.

I got it to work.  It is weird that if I try to enable a plugin by clicking the top right menu button, it works, it fails when I tried to "Enable" it from by choosing the "Enable" radio button right underneath the plugin.  Thanks aravot for addressing the message.
