VM_CONF_WARN_NO_FORMAT_DEFINED

[dddmx3]

I know this question has been answered but I do not understand how to fix this issue. I am running Joomla 1.6, and Virtuemart v2 Beta3. It looks as if the language files aren't being loaded.

Can someone please explain step-by-step on how to fix this?

The error is: VM_CONF_WARN_NO_FORMAT_DEFINED

If just means that there is a language string missing for this language key in the file ...\administrator\language\en-GB\en-GB.com_virtuemart.ini.

Open that file with an editor like 'Notepad++' and around line 196 it should read:
VM_CONF_WARN_NO_FORMAT_DEFINED="Currency is not formatted! Go to %s"
(if this message shows up, the shop currency isn't set up in the VM backend configuration)

However, at present it doesn't make any sense to work with VM2Beta3, because a lot of code and database tables have been changed meanwhile. There will be no upgrade patch to a VM2.0 Release Candidate or VM2.0 stable, so you will loose everything you enter unless you are able to export/import many database table columns manually.

Also, VM2.0 Release Candidates and VM2.0 Stable will not be made compatible with J1.6. You will have to wait for J1.7!

in fact RC2 (not released yet) is j1.6 compatible, but there is only one man working on it, atm.

You should use a language which is completly translated. The message means that you must set the shop currency in the backend.
