Signup Module Install Error

joomlamailer version: 1.7
Joomla! version: 1.6.3
PHP version: 5.2.17
MySQL version: 5.5.9

Hey,
I'm a bit of a newbie to both Mailchimp and Joomla. Any Help would be much appreciated.

I installed the zip file and its said the extension installed successfully and upon hitting install, i got the following message:

JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find XML setup file
JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find XML setup file
Error building Admin Menus

Table 'thesweet_TSL.thesweet_joomailermailchimpsignup' doesn't exist SQL=SHOW COLUMNS FROM thesweet_joomailermailchimpsignup

As far I can tell that means that the component installed (which it did beautifully under component) but neither the signup module (the bit i really need) or the plugin installed.

Any help would be great. Cheers

I too have this error
I am running this on windows XAMPP
PHP Version 5.3.5
MySQL version: 5.5.8
Joomla! version: 1.6.3
joomlamailer version: 1.7

and cannot find the module or plugins to be enabled.

I have found the problem which was an error at the end of a CREATE TABLE SQL query within the admin\extensions\ com_joomailermailchimpsignup.zip component
In file install.joomailermailchimpsignup.php line 31 becomes

I have attached the updated and original files
install.joomailermailchimpsignup.php

I have new problem now:
When I add settings to the Options and click Save or Save & Close and then recheck the options they are not saving.
Any ideas why this would be happening? I dont get any errors at all, even turned on Joomla Debug option to Yes and couldnt see any errors.

Hey Neo,
Sorry, but I'm not really sure which Options do you mean?
Can you tell me step by step where you are clicking?

The Options where you can enter your google analytics settings and other external integration settings. After entering my google analytics settings and saving (pressing Save or Save & Close). I then recheck that these settings have been saved by clicking on Options again but they are not.

Hello,

Thanks for sharing your findings NeoReverie! We will remove the storage engine definition as of version 1.7.1 since MyISAM is the default value anyway, which means we don't have to set it explicitly.

About your second problem (parameters not saving): (Please open a new thread for a different question next time. Thank you.) I can't reproduce this error. When I press save or save & close it does store the params I entered. It might have to do with your XAMPP server. Please try it on a web server and see if it works there. If it doesn't I would need a superadmin account on your site, access to the database (phpmyadmin) and ftp login credentials to find out why it's not working. My email is pete@freakedout.de

Kind regards,
Pete
