Posted by Kiran Halwai on
I installed 4.6.1 and News package works as expected. But now Forums is broken. Here is the log. Could you please tell me what's wrong here. I selected all the dependancies it had asked for. Thank you very much.

This is the partial view of the package manager -

forums Forums 0.4d  101    Enabled  Locally
general-comments General Comments 4.0  93    Enabled  Locally  reload
news News 4.6  81    Enabled  Locally
notifications Notifications 4.6.1  79    Enabled  Locally
page Page 4.5  8    Enabled  Locally
search Search 4.6  35    Enabled  Locally

Installing notifications is not enough, you have to mount it using the site-map. Once this is done you should be find. Searching for "notifications mount" should have given you a list of postings hinting at that problem and saved you the waiting time till my answer.

P.S.: Isn't this behaviour fixed by Lars APM changes (checking a package is not only installed but also mounted, as is the case with Blogger and Forums for notifications) ?
